Im not happy with her. Something is missing...Of course it cant really be seen with the Quality of these JPEG's but something is off...

Possibly the absence of the greeble in the wings...like the Galor

Okay, now im happy

This is just my opinion, but I think the greebled areas on the wings should be a bit darker. I think that would make them stand out from the hull a bit better. But either way, looking really good.

Well, if you're taking suggestions, how about pushing the bridge module forward just a tish?

maybe a variant then...

Well, it works the way it is. I just pictured something a little "boxier" when I first read about it, that's all. That's the trouble with most of these ships, there's no description of them. Good thing the ships from Serpents Among the Ruins have pretty in-depth ones.

RatBoy...I under your point man...but obselete...does not mean that the ship cannot be sleek...that is purely an astetic ideal
But if you want, I do have to make another Cardassian ship...possibly 2...I would love(if you want) to have you as my advisor on her

Well take a look at it like this: The Peek of the Cardassian civilization could be during the Lost Era.
The sleeker ships coming about then and what not, and later on the Galor and the Keldon more boxy and less graceful due to the more utilitarian needs.
It was like that for the Roman Empire and their swords. In the middle or height of the Roman empire they used the Mainz style gladius which was gracefuly made, but later on the used the Pompeii style which is alot more ugly, but alot easier to make...
Interesting, no?

Great point man!!!!

I think it's great the way it is. According to the book, the Cardassians are in their expansion phase, early on. They've just conquered Bajor and are active expanding their "sphere of influence". The way I look at it is, that as they became more powerful, the demands of the design and technological advances didn't keep pace with each other, therefore, the design was ahead of it time, though the Cardy's were unable to fully utilize the benefits for decades.
