Oooooo, is that what I think it is?  Estimate time till completion?

is this meant to be the Constalation class? I always hated that ship, but will be interested on how this one turns out.

Glad to see you back Sandman.  I like a lot of your models and am very glad to see you doing models again based on the EAS site (those are some of my favorite Star Trek ships).

Hey, do you have a website where I can download your models?  I seem to have lost your web link assuming you had one in the past.

Cool! I actually like the Constellation. (Call me strange, because I like the Ent. B as well. ;D)

Nice to see you back, man. I've had some back problems in my time. Although, nothing as bad as you do, evidently. So, I can "feel your pain".

First of all Im glad your back is a little better. Back problems really suck I know...

Overall I like this design. My only quibble regarding the design is that the warp pylons, esp the two vertical ones, seem to need some beefing up. a little too weak looking. Otherwise  :thumbsup:

Thanx guys!! ;D

Yeah, the pylons need a little work as well as the bridge module...too "triangley". :P Also thinking of adding a couple of dual torp launchers on the cross bars. ;)

M357, I used to have a site, but couldn't afford it so... :( I am a member of Outalance and have some space there, just need to figure it out and u/l my stuff. ;)

I actually like this ship MORE then the Cheyenne.   ;D

Nice work so far Sandman.  I do agree with you about the Bridge, I don't think its suppose to be that "Triangly".  But I know from experience with my own models how difficult it can be the shape things the right way you want them to be.

Umm could be the lighting. Appearance might (or might not:)) be improved if Sman where to make the front of the triangle more rounded than the other two, and stretch it out a bit. just an idea...

I agree with Lord Schtupp about the triangle, but I've noticed in my own models that things tend to get asymetrical if you're not careful.  There's one WIP (Yamato class) that I've practically abandoned because the symetry got so bad.  I'll get back to it and fix it eventually.
