Quick update...after talking with Centurus I took his advice and built a custom saucer ................ Then still need to color match the textures and finish the registry. :)

the megaphaser on the uper pylon are too close to the saucer, the should be uder the main hull of the ship.

but its and interesting designe, a tmp version of it would be interesting but not a tng cuase the ship would look like a recycling ship from other ship after a battle.  ;D

I'm just following the sketch, I believe those are secondary sensor dishes, but I could be wrong.

Ok it's just about ready for release, the more I look at the sketch, I'm wondering if I should use more ENT era parts on the design. Since that series did a great job of creating another "lost era" of ships" ENT to TOS.

Personaly if you were going to do an nx vessel I'd prefer it to be a monarch rather than a glorified akula.
