Cool. I've seen some designs similar to that. Is it a TOS design or pre?

Look closer. While it's true that I'm not a master of making shitty designs like B&B's team, that about as clear of ENT era Design as it can get.

Looks like a shovel.

yeah, but then it only a scout (you can use the (half of the) Brigde for scale reference and BTW do you like it?

Well, it looks okay for a rough outline. Do we get more detail soon? :)

perhaps, it depend on my timetable as this like SW design is just something I do to past the time (and to visualize some of my ideas).

OK no coments, so either it sucks even worse then the rest of ENT or I suck (at drawing).

Is there a side view available? It looks good, but I'm not sure if the nacelles are in line with the saucer or not...

I tried to make a side view but it wasn't what I wanted and the nacelle pylon are at 45 degree angle to hull so they're "above" the saucer

Seems to resemble the design of the ENT Era Intrepid.

Then he should have just drawn the Intrepid with a new bridge and nacelles. Image

Yeah it looks a bit like Intrepid (ENT era), but it is also smaller (the correct Intrepid saucer would too small for this design).

Dumb question: What do the two smaller pics in the upper left corner represent?

The bridge, I presume?

Yeah they're the bridge

there's now front view, but it may need some work.

Hrm. I think generally the support struts attach to the bottom of the warp nacelles.

Your pylons are waaaaaaayyy too narrow, I'm afraid. They're also too long; measure them up against the ones in your top view and you'll see what I mean.

I'd thicken them up a fair bit, to about three-fourths of the nacelles' width, and then bring them down to just above the saucer.

Other than that, coming along nicely. The front of the saucer, especially, looks nice.

well the pylon are as long as th one in top view (I DID measure them). the I can probaly do.

The thing is, the pylons are slanted. That means that a top view will *not* have the same length as a front view-- the front view will be longer, true, but what I'm getting at is that you can't use the same length as a top view on a front view... er... if that makes sense...

the nacelles can't be in different location relative to hull either.

EDIT: fixed the nacelles (including the pylons) (also completed half of bridge (inside)).

Well what do think (note the color of nacelle blow and the sensor domes is a place holder)?

Looks *much* better now. A hair deeper blue, perhaps, on the nacelles. Other than that, absolutely no complaints. Goin' well...

apart of the missing "the" that should tell something
