Wasn't the Excalibur between 800 and 1200 meters?

"Beyond the rim of the star-light
My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

you know, i hadn't forgotten about that old enterprise g.  wasn't that from some sort of contest?  man that was a long time ago.

new pics.  she's a big girl.  probably pushing a 900m I'm thinking by the window pattern.

I don't know. It may have been. It wasn't the winner. I forget which actualy did. The one in question was done by joker and is similar in construction to 4 other ships, including the montana class, which was the first ship I ever released for bridge commander. All 5 of which I would like to see rebuilt, with some minor changes and textures similar to the way you and rengers do For this vessel and the theseus. If it ever happens, I plan on requesting assitance from you and rengers with regards to supplying the nacelles for each of the 5 vessels (so each has a different nacelle). But that's obviously a matter for another time.
I just realised something. I've released over 300 fully modded ships for bridge commander. Bow to your master :D

Glad you're warming up, mayhem.

Gtada, no specific specs yet, but i'm a tech nerd too when it comes to ships.  Rest assured that there will be specifics.

Started texturing the nacelles.  The mapping is pretty tedious on these babies.

The only thing that looks bad there is that phaserbank being at an odd angle with the fed stripe right above it. Maybe the phaserbank should be paralell? It just seems to clash the way it is now.

Wow, that gives it an almost 80's flare to it. :P

Looks good all round. Going on the size of the windows, she look huge. As in really huge. :D

Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

You look like a whale shark!...Sorry, knee-jerk reaction.  :P

Anyway, this is looking better and better.  I like your solution to the phaser/registry alignment issue.  I agree with Nebula, it does give it a slight TOS feel.

I'm thinking of changing the pennant color to a navy blue.
