Looking good. I'd extent the stardrive section out to the nose, though, if you're going to have a big deflector there.

Actually the concept is a dual deflector design. The nose deflector is specifically for quantum slipstream while the stardrive has the dedicated warp drive deflector.

Just an outstanding design, a lot of great elements coming together on it. Nice work on her so far.

And a cookie.

Awesome paintjob ! really nice design, looking forward to see it finished

cookie !

I really didn't think people would be all that interested in this design lol. Pleasant surprise.

Thanks for the cookies too

Another small texture update:

Added an aeroshuttle (same type as on the Interceptor-class) simply because I like the concept of an aeroshuttle and I think every advanced exploration ship should have one

Ventral transporter emitters added as well and mostly completed underside aztec patterns. I also changed the underside dark gray area of the saucer to a hex pattern on a whim. Lemme know what you guys think.

Hmm, not sure about that hex pattern. Possibly as a variant, with a new form of "hull alloy", but I prefer the "Sovereign styling" you had before

I rather like it, shows advancment in hull design in Starfleet.

I agree

hobbs · « **Reply #27 on:** September 08, 2012, 07:54:08 PM »

agreed... its a good look for armour sections in my opinion

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #28 on:** September 08, 2012, 08:57:49 PM »

I also agree!

Arvis Taljik · « **Reply #29 on:** September 09, 2012, 02:05:41 AM »

Finally done with the whole saucer and main hull. Next up will be the stardrive section and the pylons.

Really excellent work! Makes me think you should really, REALLY try for some better warp nacelles than the Sovvies.

Agreed.

This model/texture job is too good to slap on a pair of copied nacelles... it needs something original.

Something similar to the Sovvie nacelles, but different enough to make it distinct.

Excellent job on this.

Cookie.

looking good, the hex pattern is really well executed and give the ship alot more uniqueness, as for the nacells i would definatly base them on the sovereign, as it gives the ship a good flow in its overall shape, but i would seriously consider modeling some new ones using the sovereigns as a base a modifying them heavily.

Killallewoks · « **Reply #33 on:** September 09, 2012, 09:55:09 AM »

How about something similar to the Sentinal from ST:Invasion?

CyAn1d3 · « **Reply #34 on:** September 09, 2012, 04:10:08 PM »

interesting, going with the hex pattern, i considered doing something similar with the fair haven, but the aztec pattern as a whole only.

didnt like it too much because it didnt flow like normal paneling, what youve done looks good.

as for your nacelles, i would recommend keeping the overall shape from the sovvy style, as it looks like this is a sov-esque ship.

just change around how the field grilles are and the bussard collectors.

keep it up

Tiburon nacelles are great choice, I love them and personally if you want them to look more Sovereignish it's easy, just repaint side of the bussards (http://bridgecommander.filefront.com/screenshots/File/112195/5 - I've done it on Krakow v.2)

I really like the nacelle design as well and I'm considering just changing up the warp grilles a bit. Started on stardrive section texturing so should have a pic or two up by end of day.

baz1701 · « **Reply #37 on:** September 10, 2012, 04:17:02 AM »

I'm really impressed with this mod.

As for the nacelles, if you like then you use them it is your design at the end of the day

hobbs · « **Reply #38 on:** September 12, 2012, 05:29:50 PM »

impressive texturing

to be honest im a bit speechless....

Arvis Taljik · « **Reply #39 on:** September 12, 2012, 09:32:26 PM »

Started on the stardrive texturing and figured I'd do the Starfleet pennant first.
