Part of me doesn't like the design because it's a kitbash between TNG and TMP-era designs (Ambassador-class with half her warp nacelle pylons sawed off like a shotgun barrel and Miranda-class torpedo pods mounted on odd places), part of me (my kid-in-me from the 1990s) likes it because I liked it back in the 1990s... Fond memories. (But I wish your model could've been more accurate to the original model, but oh well)

Nice job.

Better ?

I didn't actually think you'd change anything... I wasn't expecting you to on my behalf either... The last part was wishful thinking that won't come true, and that's, textures and all, making this a low-poly version of the exact same Monarch model rather than making it as a kitbash off LC's model.  Just because I sort-of stated it out loud didn't mean I wanted you to. *shrug*

It's still a good job for one of my previously-favorite fan designs I just liked as a kid (and that particular shot I saw on the top of the webpage I linked to; the dark-metalled hull, the white glow of the torpedo launchers, the faint purple glow of the warp nacelle grilles... I liked that a whole lot as a 1990s kid, before I turned Adult In Name Only a year or two ago).

Well sorry can't do much about the color. But I did catch a few mistakes I had made so I rectified them

Tho dude, you could repair the smoothing on'er

[Starforce2]

you could release at some point a belly phaser version and get rid of the blue impulse drive.
