Hehe, now I just have to figure out how to get the line tool in PS cs to act like in PS7...some reason it now is a vector tool. :-\ Oh well, I'll survive. :P

OK, a little more texturing done. IMHO, it's turning out pretty good so far. ;D

This is starting to look killer.  Only gripe is the registry.  She looks a bit off center to me.  But that's easily fixable.  When will she be finished?

Hey Sandman, have you done any other EAS ships?  I can't remember if you did or did not.

Hey "Sandman"

looks good sir ..  the only thing that needs attention are the warp nacell pylons.  Me thinks they are still a little small for such a fine design as what you have so far.  The front profile can still be thin ..  but they still need to be "beffed up" just a tad to provide proper support.

Other wise ...

looks good  !

I'm not sure about that OlBuzzard, I think Sand might have it pretty close to the original specs, but I do think he needs to add more Z-axis width to the pylons.  Was this what you where referring too?

Hey Sand, are you going to redesign the Aft section of the ship?  It seems a tad small compared to the original specs.

OK, well, have most of the 2ndary and the struts mapped, I'll post some pics later.

I just noticed something...there were no impulse engines on the drawing, and when I made my alterations I forgot to add. Where would you put them?

How about on either side of the back of the saucer like the Galaxy class saucer?  I think that would work well.

Try Ent B style to the outside of the narcelles on the back of the saucer. Or on the back of the warp pylons.

Here's another thought, try something completely different and add the deflector to the rear of the secondary hull.

Would that not negate the purpose of the deflector?
