OMG that's the type of saucer I've been looking for for my engineering section I made years ago XD.

looks cool

Nebula: Thanks, Could you post a pic of your enginering hull, i'm cures now.

sorry bank i never did get back to you about that part of your ship (the neck i mean) is this one different to the one you sent me?

it looks good

Nice shape for a saucer- we don't have a lot of triangular/trapeziodal shapes. It looks like the saucer is a ship on it's own. Is it meant to seperate? Overall, it looks like one of those John Eaves concept ships for ST: Online.

I'm still debating if i want her to separate. I always believed that a ship is stronger as a hole. WHat do you guys think?

hobbs · « **Reply #265 on:** November 19, 2009, 04:14:40 PM »

i agree stronger as a whole...

but if each part is designed to be its own ship they would be strong

ie: design a ship then have it added to another part.

to clarify : a ship that combines rather than separates world be strong as a separated ship and stronger as a combined ship.
also imagine if starfleet had had 40 combined starships against the borg that would (depending on number of parts) be a lot more ships... with two parts thats 80 ships, with 4 parts that's 160 ships ;)

This will look better as a whole ship, but it could easily separate. I looked at your ship and the neck and engineering hull look a bit vertically squished. I then tweaked the mesh a bit and came up with this (see attached pic). It now looks more like an Excelsior/Galaxy hybrid.

Lionus · « **Reply #267 on:** November 19, 2009, 05:49:17 PM »

I'd tap that.

hobbs · « **Reply #268 on:** November 19, 2009, 06:12:35 PM »

i like the ship but.... lol

the front part of the saucer looks odd to me... might be just me but it looks bird like too

H: Thats the forward field coil.
W: Damn, your great!!! Only thing is the forrward part of the hull looks a bit small, makes the sauser look bib and unbalenced. But damn,lol

If only I knew what the nacelle pylons look like as well as the nacelles, I can help you out with your ship design better.

W: There is still some bits on the nacellas that i'm working out. I'll email you them in a bit.As for the pylons, have not a clue, i was originally going with mayhem class style, then i seen Baz's JJverse Conne Refit and loved them. Once i send the necellas, you'll see, might have a good idea.

hot linking doesn't work on trekcore...

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #274 on:** November 23, 2009, 01:28:52 PM »

I seen a pic posted in the ST: Online topic yesterday and went crazy. THat is an awsome idea for a tatical combat ship. So in my crezey way i started modeling,lol. Below is my interpretation of the ship seen in that pic. I cant build her perfict as for there is only one pic and i need to see more of this ship to do it right. But using my imagination i filled in the gaps and tweeted the design to fit better with the fill in's and this is where i sit now.

Dalek · « **Reply #275 on:** November 23, 2009, 03:35:28 PM »

The nacelles are angled in the wrong direction. They should look like this /O\ instead of \O/.

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #276 on:** November 23, 2009, 04:54:23 PM »

Typicaly, yes. But with this design it would connect rignt in the grillie. But i love it this way, makes it look edgier and sleeker.

Dalek · « **Reply #277 on:** November 23, 2009, 04:57:37 PM »

No offense but it looks very clumsy like that.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #278 on:** November 23, 2009, 04:58:27 PM »

This ship looks a little like DJ's Leonidias USS Raptor ship.

hobbs · « **Reply #279 on:** November 23, 2009, 05:33:29 PM »

looks awesome to me bank- i've had many designs with the under slung saucer...
awesome
