Looking good.

However the angle which you have for the edge of the saucer looks too steep.

But otherwise she's a looker.  :)

can you flip the bottom nacelle upsidown at this point, or, since this is allready textured, is that out of the question?  either way, I think I'll look forward to this one

I like the way you've put the Registry one one nacelle and the ship's name on the other   :) , and the ship's design looks good, I also like the way you've put a deflector pod instead of a deflector-on-a-stick that you sometimes see.

The top saucer could use some of those deck lines you see on the Constitution. Check out Baz1701's TOS Connie to see what I mean.

Nice idea about TOS Akula class and it is looking better from the one in star trek legacy. Great job. ;)

The registry needs to be further away from the edge of the saucer, it looks too close. And perhaps close the gap between the deflector dish and the bottom nacelle?

All in all, looking good :)

Here is an update.  Flipped the bottom nacell and lessened the angle of the saucers edge.  Dalek, do you mean move the deflecotr pod closer to the bottom nacelle?

Yeah. And another thing I noticed, the rim of the saucer isn't thick enough.
