Hellsgate you have my permission. Thank you for the interest. The only problem is that I have no clue how to add textures to the model. I also have no software for that. But you are welcomed to it.

Welcome back Adam.
This ship looks like an akula/akyazi upgrade, but it´s interesting anyway. I´ll be waiting for updates.

And about that old wip? Left her behind?

pigpen · 06-09-2008, 08:01 PM

If you are talking about the Kirk, I have not left her behind. I have hit a wall. One of these days she will be finished. I have got new nacelles on her but she needs a new saucer and connection piece.

pigpen: thank you. why not get the other modellers to take it on as a "contest" to see who can develop the (if I may re-name the class,) Navajo-Class "enhanced scout" / "escort".

A redrafted version of the Defiant Pathfinder-Class to serve shipyards, trading outposts, (K7) and science (Regula-type) stations with light diplomatic grade (approximate to that of a Constitution, Oberth, or Intrepid-Class.)
Usually sent out to investigate communications interruptions, perform contraband interception, and inspection duties, and take care of other modern annoyances. Often determining if deploying (a) larger vessel(s) may be necessary to usurp tactical threats or dissect scientific curiosities.

lol. Nice "Down-periscope" reference, pigpen! Does she have a crew of starfleet misfits?

Nice modelling, too.

Cheers,
Nick

NHall I was not sure anyone would catch that reference LOL.

Hellsgate I would like to keep the Balao-class. But that is a could idea for the challenge. I might do that.

Here is a slight update. An extra fin on the nacelles and some windows. The hatch like structures are enclosed escape pods. I like the idea of most equipment to be hidden.

mmmmmmmmmmmm nice looking better there the nacelles and the main hull are starting to take that nicely integrated flowed look great work there

pigpen · 06-11-2008, 02:33 PM

Thanks for the comments. Work is still progressing. I am working on the windows. Updates will follow.

pigpen · 06-11-2008, 04:56 PM

Here is an update. The windows are finished. I also added the warp core ejection port.
