IMHO if you kept just the Galaxy nacelles it would a lot better, a lot less cluttered.

How about placing the top pair of nacelles at the symmetrical spot of the bottom ones, and removing the courageous additions, and the she'll be actually able to warp then.
Easy is the path to wisdom for those not blinded by themselves.

Yeah loose the side nacelles, use only the 4 Gal nacelles. Swap out the Excel sec hulls with Gal's as well. If you going to add weapon rollbars use Akira roll bars. And finally use the saucer with mega phaser from the Gal X.(BoBW). I'm working on a TNG Mars Class BB upgrade............

OKIE...

now that i have a little bit of time...

yeah .. I agree 6 nacelles are over the top  ..  especially by TNG standards. (Although I would like to have a copy of that particular style for another project I'm working on ...   seriously  .. i can use them)

I would also look at a modified tng 2ndary hull

AS for the roll bar ..  its looks ok as far as I can tell ..   I would still like to review 3-d before pronouncing final judgement though.

ahhh...

that would be unique.  Please keep in mind that more nacelles (especially by late TNG) does not equate additional power.


I like that concept ..  it is very interesting.

(BTW...  any chance I can snitch those side nacelles off of ya ?)

perhaps you  can find a way to  use the courageous pylon segment as a  support strut for something,  that part looked neat,  but I think 6 is too much too, but the rest looks nice. Unless ofcourse you did mess with the textures some  how and turn them courageous nacelles into something else.That side phaser and the extra mass there from  side view  looks interesting...
