Cool take on the Enterprise, that would fit in to the Excelsior-class era.

Can't tell if you normally release your meshes as it seems the mesh download pages are starting again from scratch due to the site being redesigned so I'll go ahead and ask.

Are you planning to release this mesh for download here?

I for one would relish the chance to get a copy of it.

Tom

P.S. Had a look at your site and viewed the tutorials there so a personal thank you for those - very informative and will no doubt come in handy

I see what you mean by Excelsior-era feel, with the blue and red gridlines on the top of the saucer..

I speculate when i say, this is what a constitution class could of looked like if developed in the late 2270's / 80's

You have achieved something so unique! Where Vektor's "Conjectural Enterprise" appeals to those who prefer the TOS look, you appeal to those like me who'd rather have the TMP Enterprise anyday!

Obviously, you've got differences built into yours like the deflector, nacelles and torpedo tubes - which are all cool by the way. In my opinion, the differences make your model fit in with the "canon" 2269-71 refit where the class emerges with a new look that isn't so far from this design.

Got a few small suggestions. (1) You could "borrow" Vektor's ball phaser design and place one bank infront of the bridge, one infront of the lower sensor dome and another bank above the shuttlebay doors - not too crowded that way, and slight resemblence to TMP. (2) With RCS Thrusters maybe consider having just four on the saucer like the TMP Enterprise. (3) Maybe add to the plain side of your nacelles - perhaps small red penant marks and "NCC-1701" - bit like the TOS model just smaller.

Also noticed your missing red formation light on the port nacelle. It would be quite cool to see an aft shot with the shuttlebay doors closed - just for the hell of it lol.

Hope you dont mind the suggestions

Most of those suggestions have been already planned for, the ship is far from complete. I would say it sits at about erm 75% done? Most of the details seen on the Lethe will make thier way onto the other ship. Though they might take slightly diffrent forms. Im missing a mess of things such as marker lights. I just havent gotten to cloning them out since most of the structure they sit on isnt finished yet.
Shuttle bay doors is just a U shaped object ATM One of those "havent gotten to" objects. Reality I havent decided how they will look.


Mesh release, no I usualy do not. Most f my meshes are in the 300 to 1million polygon range and from experience do not get used much. I havent decided what will happen with this model. It was built mainly for the hell of it and pressure from others after I had built the Lethe. (poor Lethe still needs work) Most likely since it is currently jumping from 450 to 520K polies I will not do a public release. (please do not pm me about it)

Excelsior era? I dont see it. ;p
