That's the way they should've been designed.

The Defiant is easily in my top five favorites and you're definitely doing it justice. Good work so far.

So, is it going to look like the patch, because that would be awesome?

Nah, I'm modeling the real thing. The patch was just to have a cool icon on the WIP page

Ok, so a bit more progress. I ended up having to give up and use Boolean for the insets in the main hull. I didn't want to, but the mesh was starting to get really messy if I were to do them with sub-d, so I decided to go the fastest route. It won't look as nice, but For these details, it's still good enough. Might do another update later tonight with more details added, hopefully.

She is a tough little ship...just a pity she didn't survive the entire Dominion War.

Damn good work, man. I'd love to see more, so I'm going to be watching this one. I'd say you make me look like an idiot, but compared to the rest, that's not saying much there.

Looks great so far. I really like your idea for the impulse engines, it's more inventive than just a round hole cut in the back with a light bulb inside.

It looks really good! But remember, if you make a fan-film with this you gotta recycle stock footage (in DS9, they used the same clip of the defiant un-docking and going to warp about a million times)

duh, for a second i thought it went through the worm hole, but, i am probably off on that, lol

Thanks for the compliments. To address a couple of people:

evil_genius: Yeah, I think this solution is better also. I might make the original version later, just to have it, but I intend to keep this one for sure. Unless I can come up with something better.

Starship: Yeah, happens sometimes

So, without further delays, here's a new update. Mainly greeble work, so a bit boring also, creating primitives and arranging them to create the objects. I have a couple more greebles to create for the top part, then I'll go work on the engines which is actually little stuff to do. Pretty soon I'll be able to start texturing it
