Christmas comes early!!! Thanks, WZ.
If Romulans aren't cowards, then why do they taste like chicken?

Real smooth and i love that bird detail  :thumbsup: my only dislike is the lack of bridge detail on the front there it looks a little bare .
Time for life!

LOL...you have seen the original Sparrowhawk's head right?
I think for a TOS ship the details are rather spot on.

Definitely an improvement over the 'stock' Sparrowhawk, and a nice marriage of SFB and KA designs.

The only thing I can say against it is a personal preference to keep the 'head' on the same level as the rest of the body. I wonder how the decks will be laid out with it curving like that :\

Still, pretty ship :)

I am fairly sure they have ramps in the 23rd century. However, as beautiful as this ship is...I've never been fond of SFB romulan ship heads. Desty did some too, same head.

I have always hated this SFB lineage.  That said, this design is actually pretty tolerable, given the source, and the texturing is incredible.  Great job!

I'm not doubting they have ramps, I'm just wondering what the interiors around there would look like.

I mean, it doesn't seem practical to have a lot of floorspace sloping on a ramp.

But whatever, the design is eyecandy.

I don't think its about practicality...I think its trying to make something from the SFB Roms not (IMO) Suck ass.
And there is only so much you can do to that ship to make it (again, IMO)Suck less, and still identify it as a SFB derived Sparrowhawk.
