If you enjoy it so much...would it be out of place to perhaps make a request for one?

send me a PM but remember im limited to what i can do as im using premade ship parts from PreTOS to Movie era ships

:)

a little much don't you think

Yeah but Feel free to get his Ship parts if you have them and Modify this :)

opps Furrafinty resized it so pm your e-mail for the full size version

i swear kaiser if you,me an last centaur were in charge of ship construction in starfleet, the dominion would have ran away screaming lol.

nahh we cant have them run cus wed have no epic cool battle ^__^

Heh, reminds me of the OLD OLD PC game "Star ship Creator". It was kind of pointless but you could build just about anything you wanted on there.

I remember those games the mission part was so Boring ....

yeah, but my ship the Raptor was born on that old pc game :)

I had a feeling i seen something like it somewhere...

Great piece - nice, clean schematics.

I would make one observation: You may recall from the "Wrath of Khan[sp], that Kirk commented on Khan
tending to think in two dimensions, as if their spaceships were tanks on land or boats in the water and not spaceships moving in a 3d space. That made it possible for them to maneuver above and below Khan. I'd say that this design has something of that same problem - all the big guns seem to be pointed fore and aft, with significantly less firepower directed above and below the plane of the ship. Perhaps if the guns were drawn like some of the old-time battleships with cannons sticking out of swivels to make them look more like they could fire anywhere in a hemisphere above or below the ship.

hmmm thats a very good idea

Not sure howd id redo the Soyuz class turrets to make them look like that though i did put alot of Normal Late 23rd century phaser banks on this design cus the turrets could also be sencor turrets

Again, it's a matter of artistic license - we are accustomed to moving around on the ground as a flat plane. Vehicles, weapons, etc that conform to the same pattern seem naturally appealing to us. But space is a totally different environment - what works in 2D doesn't necessarily work well in 3D. More advanced spaceships, better adapted to conditions in a vast vacuum, probably won't give quite the same visual effect.

Seems like you could change the ships radically - make them something more radially symmetrical, like certain diatoms and radiolorans which have very impressive shapes, or else change the weaponry. Instead of cannons, there might be cup-like structures in which intense balls of energy might be formed and then projected as balls or beams in any direction.

Unfortunately, then you are no longer really in the Star Trek universe. So it's a vexing problem - is the ship going to be aesthetically pleasing or will it impress the engineering audience? Simply having turrets pointing up and down would destroy the visual flow of the design.

The life of an artist is never an easy one! This is where the radical creativity comes in!

very good point prolly why they invented the Phaser Strips in the TNG cus with them you can get the 360 degree coverage without ruining the designs visual flow

Cool Design

Thanks

If it's a Princess Luna (I assume as in MLP) warship, what happens when they try the button labeled ROYAL CANTERLOT VOICE?

All weopons fire at once maybe ?
That or its used to jam enemy communications or all Bow facing weopons go off or nothing

The mayhem and destruction has been DOUBLED!

Yep ^_^
