It's the bumps themselves that make it look fake. From certain angles, they look fine, from others, they really don't. What are the chances of actually modelling those pieces on?

Plus, if you're going to use the bevel tool, try to make the shade of black/grey even on all sides, that why way it doesn't look too bad. If you don't have a clue what I'm talking about lol I'll get you a pic, just say ;)

Here is something meshed. Ship's design is between STO style + connie style.

Some of the mesh errors on the neck will dissapier. For now the rhino surfaces are not so detailed but after meshing, it will be alright

Saucer is WAY to thick and wrongly shaped...

the Consituttion in the game is a connie refit normal with diferent textures

the Excalibur has more of a triangular saucer

the Vesper is more close to an excelsior...

It's not meant to be a rehash of the STO Connie, it's just based lightly around bits and pieces we've seen of the STO one.

Thats a Legacy image. Notice the distinctly Legacy shaped crosshair :P.

Exactly, STO has almost infinite kitbash possibilities (from what I've been told), now M.O.S. team is not building STO ships as they appear but we only base upon their style.

Here is update on the NX-91001, following JB's and JTK's suggestions I've made solid color bevel rather than bevel with different shades also I've added more heavy armor platings with aztecs on them, also I've slapped new deflector and added top of the secondary hull.
