I'd get rid of the saucer section altogether. Keep the rest. Maybe give it a more Prometheus-Class / Intrepid-Class style arrowhead saucer section.

Have you thought by chance of turning the ship upside down? i know it sounds weird but im just curious as to how it would look as a more customary design

I have to agree with both these comments. As it is right now, it just doesn't look 'normal'.

I was just thinking, would it be better if the pylons were swept backwards instead of forwards? It might look more graceful that way.

"normal" is relative, guys.  I like the oddball ships. I have an upsidown TOS in my stock, so someone's already done a flipper or two.

Cinqnic, I think you better satisfy these people who prefer a plain design as well.  that way, you'll get more downloads! an Intrepid style arrowhead hull shouldn't be hard to add on, unless your REALLY tired :P

This ship flares it's own unique design and shouldn't be compared to any other starfleet vessel, also considering the fact that it's from the late TNG era(maybe first of it's kind). I think she looks great, just needs DJ's naccelles to top it off.  ;)

Will go on forever.

I have to agree with you on that matter, this ship has some unique style, rarely presented on any ship and it should be left as it is now (design wise) also I like it's similiarities to Enterprise-J ;)

This ship looks soo much better in game ;) I like the design, perhaps you should consider heavy weapons refit (torpedo pod per each pylon -4 tubes, 2aft, 2fore per each torpedo pod)

I was just thinking, perhaps turn the glow down on the windows? Its something I've noticed on all your ships and I think this ship could really benefit from not so bright windows.
