WTF are those modular units on the spine above the cargo bay & hangar bays for?

FarShot · « **Reply #2 on:** July 07, 2010, 01:21:28 AM »

For different modules. Duh.

No seriously, the idea is for swappable modules. Pull into a starbase, switch out a sensor platform with 2 phaser banks and a torp launcher. Quite useful during the dreaded X-Era (Cardassian War anybody?) Or if you need to run a blockade, the extra engines will provide the needed boost.

That's pretty slick. I love the look of those Nacelles. Can't wait to see more of this

Bit of an update.

Cool! Big, pregnant lady.

SMOOTHING GROUPS!!! HELP!!!!

FarShot · « **Reply #6 on:** July 11, 2010, 02:38:50 AM »

I usually save smoothing groups for last, helps me see mesh errors better without them.

Update before I go to bed. Torpedo side pods added, top platform leveled, and Excelsior-style ribbing area prepared.

"I find the lack of replies disturbing."

Come on guys, I need your opinions!

I think she looks good so far.

TheConstable6 · « **Reply #9 on:** July 11, 2010, 06:22:28 PM »

I preferred the Miranda-esque dropped nacelles.

She's a big girl, that's for sure.

They'll still be there. I only put in a place holder for the nacelle pylons. A Miranda-esque ship is actually what I'm trying to make.

Nihilus · « **Reply #12 on:** July 11, 2010, 07:38:00 PM »

Based on that sketch I think she's going to be pretty sexy. When I see the front I picture a blue Excelsior style deflector.

Villain · « **Reply #13 on:** July 12, 2010, 01:09:55 AM »

Love the little cut you've made around the deflector, very post-nem imo.

Great! I'm a fan of that design.

This is it for the night.

Looks to be coming along well! I love that main hull.

deadthunder2_0 · « **Reply #17 on:** July 13, 2010, 12:24:07 AM »

how do you plan to do the pods?

I'm thinking of releasing it as a pack, with different ships with different pods.

On a side note, this design was based on something spawned of sillyness:

I might throw in a U.S.S. Halcyon as a tribute to that monstrosity. :roll

EDIT- Oh, now I'm actually going to bed.

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #19 on:** July 13, 2010, 07:30:56 AM »

I actualy like your orignal design better. I think the top hull should continue to the tip of the saucer instead of stopping aft of the bridge. Jest an idea.
