an important note before you start reading, i have only drawn half the dorsal view because of 2 reasons:
1, once i (plus helpers) get this half modeled, it can be mirrored.
2, i would have seriously cocked it up if i tried to draw the other half.

anyways on with the show XD

so, this has 4 inset torp launchers in the saucer, and is inspired by Wiley's Proteus, and achilies/proteus hybrid.

image attached.

Some bits look good, but there is too much blue grilles on the nacelles. Any other views?

flarespire · « **Reply #2 on:** January 11, 2011, 01:48:37 PM »

not ATM, besides the grilles are more spread out, just looks a bit overdone because i havent drawn the other views yet.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #3 on:** January 11, 2011, 01:53:56 PM »

When you are nearly done with the other views, keep in mind the number of decks the ship has, because right now, yours looks lie a heavily weaponized Nova-class ship.

i can say its around the same size as the proteus, give or take 2-5 decks, but yeah, i redesigned this as a possible sister class for the proteus or a step up from the nova class.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #5 on:** January 11, 2011, 01:59:05 PM »

I'm just saying that my Proteus-ship family could easily be smaller than the Enterprise-E.

looks good dude

i agree with the size of the ship... it does look a bit nova class.

here is a little something i thought might help

flarespire · « **Reply #7 on:** January 11, 2011, 02:04:12 PM »

nice XD

flarespire · « **Reply #8 on:** January 11, 2011, 02:06:40 PM »

ehh, the im possibly gonna make her inscale to ent-e, to be safe.

hobbs · « **Reply #9 on:** January 11, 2011, 02:41:53 PM »

after talking to flare~ on messenger i thought of this

the inner nacelle extends for warp flight and retracts for combat or impulse manoeuvres

or

the inner nacelle extends for greater warp efficiency or enhanced speeds

just an idea

flarespire · « **Reply #10 on:** January 11, 2011, 02:50:31 PM »

thats a pretty nifty idea, though the nacells are defaultly the length i said, and the vent on top is a preventure of engine overheat*flashback of first test flight, shudders*) but the extend idea is pretty awsome XD

ok so after staring at my ent-e model for an hour, doing alot of doodling, and having a hard think, ive decided to make the inferno as lnog and as wide as ENT-E but its only going to have 29 decks.

im currently working on a side view, though i hate side views because i always muck those up....

flarespire · « **Reply #12 on:** January 11, 2011, 05:31:28 PM »

why has this thread been moved, it is going to be a mod, and it WILL be finished, im already working on the other designs, now i request it be put back to were it was. :mad:

Nebula · « **Reply #13 on:** January 11, 2011, 05:58:31 PM »

once you post the 3d model I will ;)

flarespire · « **Reply #14 on:** January 11, 2011, 06:01:16 PM »

does it have to be finished or just a reasonable start on it?

Nebula · « **Reply #15 on:** January 11, 2011, 06:22:46 PM »

reasonable start

JimmyB76 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 11, 2011, 06:24:17 PM »

as i explained in the PM, once the project gets into the modeling phase and becomes an actual WIP mod for BC, then the thread can be moved or a new one made...
BC Modding forum isnt for drawings and other art work, which is what the project is at this current phase...

flarespire · « **Reply #17 on:** January 19, 2011, 06:06:28 PM »

ok now im stuck, i have absolutely no idea how to draw the front or side views, i mean i know whats gotta be there, i just cant seem to draw it, so this is kinda on hold untill i gain help....

flarespire · « **Reply #18 on:** January 22, 2011, 01:39:49 PM »

ok iv decided to go with hobbs' mirroring as a top shape, http://bc-central.net/forums/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=8208.0;attach=52302;image
and im now working on the side view, keep watching this thread guys.

flarespire · « **Reply #19 on:** January 25, 2011, 12:02:02 PM »

ok guys, being as ive changed something, this ship will looklike a nova class from the side except the nacells are in line with the saucer and it has a deflector band and no secondary deflector, and the nacells are to how ive drawn them.
if anyone wants to have a go please lemme know, as imgoing to attempt her, she also looks like the nova from the front, just with the changes ive made.
