if My memory serves me right its the typical fasa Bash and Hash, the specifications with regards to Length width and height
don't match what the ship drawing is trying to convey. Vance's design better conveys the idea. I prefer to think of the larger
version as a Heavy Carrier  ;D and yes she is a fat ship  :D

Finished. Sorry that I guessed wrong on the back end. It matches with the posted pics pretty well though, I think. Credit to "The Stress Puppy" and "Desty Nova". I used their models as reference for the emblems, decals, etc. for the textures.

Well done!!  I like how you angled the aft as opposed to a straight box.

Thanks everyone for the positive comments and I'm glad you like her, Bernard.  I wasn't trying for canon on the buzzards. I was trying for something a bit "more". With that said though, I'm redoing the buzzards, for all you Republicans here. :P (Actually, you all are right... This time!  ;) ) I should have it ready in a couple hrs. or so, and I'll get her uploaded.

OK. I've updated the model with the new bussards. You can see the updated pics above. I also fixed some smoothing problems on the rear deck that was causing shadows on the deck with the .mod file.

Wow!  Nice work.  I like this ship better then a Connie!  Just the overal Design seems to make more sense then a Connie in my opinion.
