Very, very nice. Many compliments on the added superstruture details. They look like they were supposed to have been there all along. Since you have so much accomplished with the destroyer, have you considered finishing off the line with an over/under warp CL? The only one I know of that exists is FD13's. Just a thought.

Hi LS
    It Looks really good. Do you want me to update the Development logo with this version? If yes send me the same
profile that I used for the logo and if you could make the background transparent that would be fantastic I can then
do the rest.

Oh yea be sure to read the readme.txt file for hardpoint info. the main difference is the addition of RH phaser 1s on the command varients. That and the addition of the 2 banks of Phas3s LS+RS really bring this ship into balance. The command versions have excellent Phaser coverage. I playtested quite a bit with them...

BG - yes I will send you a new render when I can or would you rather have the model itself? The logo is pretty small on the ship but I want to have larger one for its download page.

I know the website looks funky but Im gonna tune it up here and there i.e. fix colors etc.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Thank you. Mr. DuctTape will be doing an Akula for us, so I think that will fill the bill.

Kitbashers should find these ships ez to bash, as all the bitmaps are isolated to each component. I will provide blanks by request if not availble, as eventually all ships will have a blank texture set available.

DuctTape - Use center Dreadnought warp for top engine on the Akula.

Coolness...

HI LS
   Better send me a render all I have is the m6's model editor and the taldren viewer but I'd like something biger than
the viewer I work in Microsoft photodraw to create the logos Like I said render with the background being transparent
would be optimal.

Awesome!!!

No, really, great work making each class a distinctive variant.  One questions, though, check the render of the Pontiac rear-view.  It looks like there is an untextured segment of the dorsal saucer between the added afterdeck and the impulse housing...

Way-too-cool, dude.

Any chance of a rehash of Ghosts Old CL model to round-out the TOS thing?

Gawd!  Check-out the level of detail on this thing!

I'm in mod-viewer magged-in on the shuttle-bay ledge where there's a complete paint-job on the landing-pad including bullseye type landing circle.  Check the labels on the outrigger sensor-pods and I especially like the details on the missle-racks (HLS, I assume?).

Somebody should offer you a job doing this.

Absolutely beautiful as always.  You are truly one of the finest TOS modelers.

Nice job retaining the spirit of the Saladin design, while adding the little details that FJ left out in their original kitbashing of the Connie.

I am a die-hard TMP fan, yet, when I saw your new destroyers, they led to me downloading everything on your site!! Very, very, very nicley done models, all of them. Your attention to detail is just incredible. I have bookmarked your site!!
