The Crew is about 520-620.  As for the dueterium, it can be put in the same place as the Gal, and also in the ventral section that the Deflector has now vacated.
The "secondary hull" is more like a "warp hub" with frills :)
If I extended the so called secondary hull, then the ship will look disproportioned...you compare the saucer length to the sec-hull, and you find that they are very close to each other...the sec-hull would be much more dense as the warp coils are as stated in the TNG tech manual to be rediculously heavy for their size, hence very dense.  So, if a toy or miniature of this ship was ever made, the secondary hull would me made in metal, while the saucer would be plastic.

Man, Atolm, you should have been the guy to pick up after Jack Kirby and carry on his New Genesis and Apokolips stuff... Superman, Jimmy Olsen, and all.  Your artwork has that feel to it... just like Kirby's.

I really wonder what some Apokolips monster-villain would look like under your style!

Thanks mate, that means a lot.

1 question what are those small tanish rectangles on the mainhull following the curve of the curve of the hull? they look like deflectors, if thats the case do they help in creating larger subspace feilds for faster than warp flight?
They are the auxillary deflector array.

Quoting myself again:

Quote
As I see the finished product in a perspective (and top) view, I like it generally.  I'm not to sure about the impulse placements and the somewhat Enterprise-J-esque dorsal/ventral saucer design and I wonder if the stardrive is big enough (I'd guess so), but aside from concerns I like the warship design.  I could see it plowing through a fleet in combat...

By the way, may I ask what exactly she is armed with... I could easily tell Phaser Arrays (Type XII?), perhaps the pulse phaser cannons from the Defiant-class in a similar position, and... *shrug*

In any case, although not seemingly as bulky-looking in a perspective or top view, still a threatening sight.

9 type 12 phaser strips
4 pulse phasers (by the bussards)
4 quantum torp launchers (2 on the sides of the main deflector, and 2 on the dorsal aft neck)
2 photon torpedo launchers (one in the forward neck, and another on the aft ventral of the secondary hull.  both are behind retractable hatches)
Ablative armour
regenerative shielding

This is a scaled 120 metre drone prototype  that was used for testing before the Full scaled ship was made.
it was designed to be launched from a modified miranda mothership(design to come). it also has an option for a crew of 6 researchers.
the pod on the bottom is for data gathering.

what is the large appendage sticking out of the ventral area?

Hello Atolm
    That is very nice sort of the Lost era time line Miranda. Great work  ;D

Thanks, but its not Lost-era...It essentially is a heavily modified Miranda-class that has been converted into a Testbed for new technologies (thats why she has hardpoints through-out the hull, and also has detachable hull sections if needed), and also can serve as a mothership for scaled vehicles and/or Drone-ships.

This next one is an illustration that I was not sure if I would do...It is the prototype Justice (orange one) in her later years as a technology demonstrator, to show off at "space-shows" (aka air shows and fleet week-type things in the ST universe).
Enjoy :)

That's some crazy work, but that Galaxy just looks plain strange ;D
My sense of aesthetic seems to not take to it too much..... perhaps if the saucer was lower, and pushed forward slightly... more sort of Voyager/ Ent-E style?

It kind of looks, well... Fat. ;D

Either way it's stunning in it's originality.

Though that prototype one is somehow better, not sure why.
God said to the Welsh: 'I am going to give you this glorious land of lakes and mountains.' So where's the catch, asked the Welsh? 'Wait until you see the neighbours,' replied God.

When I was talking about the size of the secondary hull, I was actually referring to width rather than length.  Either way,  I still love what you've done here.  And the Miranda variant is sweet too.
