Only nitpick I have is the warp engine design.  I can't quite explain it, but to me, they just don't really fit the ship that well.

Not liking the nacelles, too Oberth-ian in design, an unusual ship to say the least. Unreal talent and modelling skills as always Adonis, but I'm not digging this one. Outstanding job on it my friend.

Unusually, thiis isn't one that screams out to me in the way your stuff usually does... 

I'm not sure what it is, but each of the components, the saucer, the secondary hull, the nacelles all look impressive on their own, but oddly the sum of those parts isn't gelling... perhaps its because they feel as if they are from slightly separate timelines... the saucer looks lsomewhat more traditional TMP, the sec hull looks post-Excelsior with TNG slit windows, the nacelles from somewhere else again.  It's frustrating that I can't quite put my finger on what I'm trying to convey, but hey, so long as you're happy with her, what does it matter what anyone else thinks?

OK, now, this is the TNG version. I tho, do have a question. Should I do a version with this coloring but with the TMP weapon setup (there's a slight difference in the detailing between the two versions, the belly phasers are absent on the retexture), call it a late TMP version.

I'm with FOAS on this one, I like the nacelles because I can see updating some old p81 meshes with new engines when those old meshes get updated.  :D

It's a shame Adonis doesn't allow bashes of any of his work.

Say it ain't so. -=Wheeps=-

The GREEN!!!.....ok i thought it really didnt work the first time i saw it, but now its grown on me, although i think the name should be changed to USS Patrick or USS Paddy.

It's a shame Adonis doesn't allow bashes of any of his work (i still say GRRRRRRRRRR to that by the way dude you know how much i wanna get at them) otherwise Alec would be right these style nacelles would be awesome to be used as a refit into the lost era..but heres a question for all the nacelle freaks out there (me included) can you imagine some of the forward sections of some of WZ's connie style replacement nacelles with the rear of Adonis's ones man that would be sweet

Actually, whenever I look at this ship, I think to myself, if I could mesh worth a damn, how could I remake the engines using some concepts WZ already made, and some others.
