he's used to woring on ships for one of the more low-poly trek games.

First thought:

second thought:

as long as you give her four pulse phasers at minimum, you will have my dl.

candle_86 · « **Reply #5 on:** October 05, 2009, 04:25:01 PM »

4 laser cannon emblacements right above the deflector

EDIT
you mean like this?

Lionus · « **Reply #6 on:** October 05, 2009, 04:43:50 PM »

Pulse phasers would be better fitted into the wings to give wider coverage. There weren't that many one man fighters with nose armament back in WWII. however, a photon/microphoton launcher could be placed in a pod under the nose.

lol this isnt for the 24th century its for the 22nd century. Built after the Romulan War as planatary defense, hince the text and the birdofprey on the tail all being from the 22nd century. Photon launchers are still big and expensive. Pulse phasers havnt been invented yet

Lionus · « **Reply #8 on:** October 05, 2009, 04:48:03 PM »

Ah, I see. but could similar armament be achieved with that era's tech?

candle_86 · « **Reply #9 on:** October 05, 2009, 05:04:10 PM »

not that we ever saw, we know the NX-01 had Phase Cannons and Photonic Torpedo Launchers. We know the 1701 under pike had lasers. So I choose lasers not phase cannons Sorry B&B but photonic missle launchers are to big, and I dont like the look of underslung missles not only that i dont think there is a script taht can make the missles leave and self guide lol.

Also its not shielded or armored, to expensive, the front dish is sensors and deflector screens, low powered deflector screens just to move debries from out of the way at warp. Also Im not putting lasers in the wings I dont feel safe having lasers next to my warp plasma sorry

In the ENT era they had plasma cannons and the phasers fired long pulses in WoK.

the hardest thing was finding a vulcan pinup, the little black dot there is the original artists signature and its not comming off, I was unable to contact him but im giving him full credit.

Does she look Aerodyanmic enough for atmosphereic flight?

If anyone wants the raw mesh in .gmax let me know ill release it to you personally if you want to work with it, maybe refit it for your own style era. Though the mapping is weird on it lol so when you go to retexture be warned you might have to remap it

King Class Scout · « **Reply #12 on:** October 05, 2009, 07:17:09 PM »

being part of an art group infamout for having it stolen and the name scrubbed off, leaving the artists "signat" (the design serving as their signature) is a brainy idea.

PS...prep a skin without the noseart as well, in case a fuss is raised.

candle_86 · « **Reply #13 on:** October 05, 2009, 07:28:07 PM »

I have

Joshmaul · « **Reply #14 on:** October 06, 2009, 03:34:17 AM »

I think I would make the nacelles a little smaller - they look almost as big as the fuselage - but beyond that, this is an interestin' idea.

tiqhud · « **Reply #15 on:** October 06, 2009, 10:35:15 AM »

Like to point though the NX01 DID have something akin to Pulse phasers,
remember "Broken Bow" they were indeed used.

I guess I better watch agian, I cant find screencap at trekcore
[may have over looked]

Cobie2 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 06, 2009, 05:17:17 PM »

I suggest that you maybe angle the pylons downward a bit, as it would provide them with a landing gear sort of cappability. Also, it would take the danger of the warp field being close to the pilot. I think it would also benifit you to add at least something in the way of ablative armor; I'm sure that by this point they would have that sort of technology down to a science. As for weapons, perhaps a sort of energy beam that fires out of the deflector as a last resort, high power weapon, since this ship is designed for planetary defense. Thats what I got for ya. I'd love to hardpoint it or something if youd like the help.

That were the Plasma cannons I mentioned. They were never used again but civilian ships still had them.

Damn this looks very interesting, now I'd like to have F-117 and F-22 reinvisioned in TNG era ;)
