OKIE...  The entire model is just one piece  (aside from the upper nacelles that were extracted and flipped over for the top).  This way I can easily make it 2 or 4 as requested.  Also:  I can easily save this one and export into 3-DS a new file and save as Shadowhawk III  ..  with newer TNG skins.   If that makes sense.

BTW...  do the nacelles look OK ?  They still seem a tad undersized to me ??

Thoughts?

Yes the nacelles are too dinky. They should go the length of the underside of the wing; about twice the size they are now. Other than that it looks mean!

Already fixed ! And you are right !  Looks much better !!

 It will probably take a while to get the hull plating done correctly ... sooooo   it may be late this weekend before I post any more picts ...  I'll give it my best shot and see what shakes out.

I have no clue. I don't even know what part he is refering to as the bulkhead.

The front end that sticks out by it's self ...  Really I can do whatever we like.  I was just trying to get some idea as to how big this puppy is next to the TNG War Bird.  I'm not quite done with some of the detail on the "neck" and "bulk head".   
From what I've gathered this ship is much smaller than the War Bird ...  so 15 or decks should be fine !  Thoughts?

That thing is about the same size as an Excelsior class I'd say. From the tech data Adam posted the ship is 66m high, so if we say an average of 3m per deck then the entire ship is no more than 22 decks tall. Scale to that.

Corbomite: I was guessing somewhere between 15 - 20 ...  sooo  I think I will stick with that.  Not all of the decks will be extruded ... BUT ..  I need to make allowances for the textures and those decks that ARE extruded to be somewhat proportionate  (if that makes sense).

Adam:  I still have the original frame that I was working off of that is closer to the Taldren build.  I the first pictures I posted.  If needed I can save that under the "Shadowhawk II" and I will begin a separate file for this newer "hybrid" "Shadowhawk III". 

For now the Shadowhawk III will simply have some more detail (ie:  a few places on the bulkhead to be extruded ...  and hull plating panels raised on the body )

Shadowhawk pre TNG:  Shadowhawk IV .  If we develop this one right for that time period the  nacelles should be changed a bit.  Currently the Shadowhawk II and III reflect a more bulky or "squared" shapes to reflect the designs of that time.  Pre-TNG IMHO might have sleeker  designs of sorts.  The bulkhead would be a bit sleeker  (though not too much ).  The body would have a slightly different type of hull plating as well.

Hmmm....  I think I will hand sketch a few types of hull plating ...  scan them in and post later this evening and see what you guys think.  As I said earlier this is my first attempt at a Romulan ANYTHING !!   (sorry ... looks like you guys are the guinea pigs ! )

 ;D

My apologies for not posting any updates:  but when we get there you will see 3 separate models:  all of them based on the same design:  Shadowhawk II
1.  The version that we started with (the Taldren style with a few minor changes and a higher poly count).
2.  The next step with a few more features that are pre TNG
3.  The same model that leans more toward TNG "Nemesis"
