Awesome a new adversary ship!

I think it looks to wide and *Wrong word* thick to be a mere fighter.

Keep going... ;)

that would make a very good light attack ship such as a frigate, if you were to take it that way may i suggest you sweep the outer tip edge of the wings in just a tad to give the tips of the wings more of the talon hook look if you will.

I see  a perfect reman bob there  :thumbsup: No mater what race it looks like keep your ideas.  It looks low poly enough for a fighter , i would texture this up as a fighter variant and continue to create a heavy or larger with the design. But thats me  :crazy2: Good work so far no matter what.

I'm not to sure about it. Maybe if you taper the thiness of the of the wing tops. Right now everything tends to look a bit chunky. Other than that a great start.

i agree, just a though try thinning out the points on the leading edge of the wing sorta like a knife blade look and see how it works, that will give it the flowing look and tie it all together, just leave the back edge a little more thick then the front leading edge but still round it to a blunt point sorta like a egg and see how that works out.

Personally, I don't think the head works for a Reman ship.  Nevertheless, here is a quick look at a Reman paint job on the ole girl.

That looks good  :thumbsup: I agree with you all on the head but if you move that distinct Romulan point faceing down -forward a bit it should help out on the Reman look. I am just blowing some wind here but" I see 4 uses for the mesh/art as it stands now" Romulan fighter , Reman bop {with a few mesh changes} and Cylon advanced fighter {with few mesh changes} and Batman Batwing jet {with a few mesh changes}  " . For the batman/Cylon look if you ever wish to try it pull out the center verts /make the wings have sharp edges, lenghen the main hull point the front out a bit and add a mesh cut in for the Cylon eye or Batwing add a cockpit and conventional engine types. Too much info Go Romulan !  :)

What do you all think?  Lights or no lights?  If lights what color, considering she may have a Reman slant.

I like the lights a lot. Were you planning on doing lights all around, including the sides of the nacelles? I always liked the bright green D'deridex light scheme, pretty much what you are starting right now, but maybe the nacelles and some panels would be brighter green when you got to them.

Sweet  :thumbsup: I think Reman was blue or a bluegreen tint for the windows? I might be wrong on that.
