Here is a TOS "Akira" style Torpedo Cruiser. Comments as always are welcome.
-
NX01 --> Torpedo Cruiser --> Akira Class
Only thing missing then, is a good TMP-era ship to fill out the lineage.
-
I could see an excelsior/connie hybrid filling that role.
Model looks very neat. Something about the simplicity of the TOS designs is always appealing.

It wouldn't stop someone from building it. Nice job on the model. I think I went a tad overboard with the torpedo bays on my TOS Akira. I was thinking about rebuilding my old TOS ships. I want to see how yours plays ingame.
-
Mine will be relativley simple to keep in line with TOS. Probably 6 or 8 shots from the two tubes in the pod. Standard phasers.
-
just a quick question shuttle bays? ;)
-
If you look at the third picture in the previous post (non textured model) there are two, one on each end of the secondary hulls.

ok now i see them :hithead:
-
Interesting...I personally just figured they were impulse engines. :idk: Me so silly.
-
Looks nice.
How about some windows on the ventral saucer bulge this time around? ;)
-
Already there
-
Moving fast with this one. In-game:
-
Fast is a good thing when you got most of the parts already done.
Only one critisism, and that would be the aft end of the "torpedo pod" looks a bit lacking in terms of model details. Forward end of the pod looks good just the way it is, but the aft section looks a bit... bland.
Cookie for making a good looking TOS-era Akira :)
-
Thanks Darkthunder. I agree that the back of the torp pod looks plain. I'll see what I can do with it.
-
Love it man. love all your TOS ships and download every one.
-
DJ, many thanks and I am glad you are a fan of my TOS ships. Looks like we both have reached cookie milestones, me 50 and you 500! :yay:
Thanks again to everyone who support my TOS ship projects.
-
damn dude, where the hell has this been? looks spiffey :yay:
-
what I would do is put a second impulse engine on the back of the pod, TOS ships had mainly forward armaments anyway
-
Has the class name been decided yet? If not, I suggest Masamune- or Muramasa-class..
-
I was going with Ticonderoga-class
-
Ticonderoga most people think to be a Proxima class. I think.
-
here is the TMP refit of the ship still alot of work to be done
-
Longship is looong.
-
needs a larger saucer, and a abbe class torp pod
-
I would give the weapon pod's pylons more sweep, and I'd make the torpedo launcher look more like a larger version of the Miranda pod, maybe with eight tubes instead of the four. Also, try adding a mega-phaser or two, TMP era ships were pretty phaser heavy.
-
Gm, dont forget to list it in downld section. [your torpedo cruiser]
-
Maybe if you moved just the nacelles forward a little bit then it wouldn't look so needlesly long.
-
Thanks TQ, will do
