One of my fav's from back in the day.

The Federation CVA.

I wanted to keep this one to 3200 or less and I'm close to that but I'd like to cut in a couple torp launchers and possibly the fighter bay doors. So it will be decision time this weekend. After Atrahasis came out with his smooth decked ncl and nca I of course had to spend a few polies and make the long spine of this ship match! A lot of the hull is one piece so that cost me a few faces but I like em that way as it may save me a texture sheet which will more than pay for a face or two.

Of course the SCS will follow.

And....just to whet your appetite. Dispatches have been intercepted that have indicated that another independant shipyard is making a competing CVA design....

Well not so independant as one might think.

As always, happy to see a WIP posted by one of the starship model crafters that has given so much to the community. Need I even say this looks good?

Status report for the SFC community.

I'M NOT WORTHY! I'M NOT WORTHY!

Outstanding! One of my favorites too, unsurprisingly....

Those Warps are really nice looking, Anduril.

Atrahasis · « **Reply #7 on:** November 15, 2003, 12:01:18 pm »

Excellent! I'd be proud to use this in my fleet.

If the SFC Community were on the stock exchange, I would buy - certainly it is trending up...

Thanks all.

A it's a testament to your 3 year old ship and it's longevity that it's taken me this long to make a version of my own!

I'll just edit this post to add a pic of a very subtle tos paneling effect I'm putting on my saucers now.

TheStressPuppy · « **Reply #10 on:** November 15, 2003, 03:09:11 pm »

Sweet work! Ive been working on a phase 2 varient of that ship (still havnt decided on a nacelle pylon config yet) im gonna need to change the registry on it

i got it as ark royal ncc-2203. i dont have a source for carrier names. awsome work.

Yes it does seem like the "Old School" is returning.. now all we need is moonraker

Lord Schtupp · « **Reply #11 on:** November 15, 2003, 03:26:32 pm »

Bitchin hull texture dude...

Way...

anduril · « **Reply #13 on:** November 15, 2003, 03:29:53 pm »

Not a bad suggestion A.

I'm already considering using the TMP symbols for the hull pennant and changing the bridge dome to the Phase 2 one anyways.
You know I had it right the first time then I looked at a shiplist someone posted with the feddies on it and then changed it....

Got burned.

Rogue · « **Reply #17 on:** November 15, 2003, 05:23:05 pm »

This question never occured to me before... Since most Federation ships have that largish glowing (window?) in each quandrant of the saucer... what are those?

And needless to say, that is shaping up to be a fabulous looking CVA.

TheStressPuppy · « **Reply #18 on:** November 15, 2003, 06:12:29 pm »

I belive those are early sensor arrays not windows. I know thier placement doesnt make any sense. then again lots of things on TOS ships didnt make sense

Still we put em on to retain the "classic" look of the TOS era ships

Desty_Nova · « **Reply #19 on:** November 15, 2003, 06:29:45 pm »

Gotta love that classic TOS look though!
