Thanks! The original idea I did get from seeing an achilles design being made on SFM. I really liked how the pylons were made so I decided to try out something similar, since the Mithra is widely based on the Achilles/Titan/Intrepid, anyways. :]

*added a second & third pic to my previous post*

Edit: I've also realized that there's plenty of blending to do to make the hull seem more uniform with the pylons... all will come in time.

*hugs*.... have a cookie

Aeries · « **Reply #702 on:** July 15, 2009, 10:01:48 PM »

LOL! Is that a sympathy cookie or a "I like it" cookie or... what? Come on, I seriously can't tell! Lol.

I really like the dual underside launchers. i might be inclined to have the inner (part of the ventral saucer) not so recessed, or at least angle the edges a bit more.

You mean making the "indents" a bit shallower? I'll try that, just gimme a minute to do it and pop off a render. :]

Aeries · « **Reply #706 on:** July 16, 2009, 12:51:55 AM »

I lowered the saucer indent so it's shallower. This look a bit better?

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #707 on:** July 16, 2009, 12:55:16 AM »

Yeah, I think so.

Aeries · « **Reply #708 on:** July 16, 2009, 12:59:07 AM »

Good, 'cause I think so too. Thanks for suggesting it. :]

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #709 on:** July 16, 2009, 01:09:06 AM »

I agree with DJ, that does look better.

This ship is extremely cool. Really nice design concept.

Great job!

TBH, I don't like the split pylon thing going on. One of the things I hated on the Achilles.

She is really shaping up mate, when you gonna try a game version?

Dalek · « **Reply #713 on:** July 16, 2009, 06:52:00 PM »

One thing about the pylons, does the back pylon have to curve toward the saucer? I think it would look so much better curving away, like this:

Instead of:

((-0

Aeries · « **Reply #714 on:** July 16, 2009, 08:50:04 PM »

It looks silly curved away. Tried it.

Markyd I've only ever been working on the game version and this is it. This model will, however, also be my base for the movie-level variant [for lack in a better term].

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #715 on:** July 16, 2009, 09:01:42 PM »

cgi?

Awesome ship. I Like.

Nice ship Aeries, its come a long way.
About the nacelles and pylons.

I think you are trying to mix two different 'styles'.
The saucer and kneck suggesta sleeker more elegant ship (like the sovereign), where as the pylons and nacelles suggest something more solid looking like the akira.

Try narrowing the nacelles by 25% and making your pylons about a third as thick as they are now.

Nice work mate.
