A honking huge fed ship! :shock: do want! Those Dominion Battleships will not bother us any longer! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA :twisted: actually, with that the federation could make a claim on few.. hmm.. "disputed" areas on their borders..

:lol: if there will be a war refit version I will sooo rock that. *fires a volley of awesome-cookies*

holy crap!.... i think were gonna need a new spacedock for this big beauty....

and YES to the war refit!!

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #262 on:** July 10, 2009, 09:43:06 AM »

probably not, actually, as it's only slightly wider than a Galaxy Class starship. As to a war refit, probably not, as black paneling smothering a starship has never appealed to me.

If a ship this size needs a war refit, I'd hate to see the ships that it has to fight.

I demand that ship in my 9th sig. NOW!

Anything that is pretty and huge goes in my good books.

Hm...maybe a fleet of Naradas?

j/k

Seriously, I did not expect that ship to be that big, but it is beyond awesomeness!! I can't wait to see her flying in Bridge Commander.

WOW. That is one huge ship!

I'm absolutely loving the saucer design. The overall shape is great, and the accented hull lines are very slick. I'm not a fan of the warp nacelle or pylon design (in fact, I think they really spoil the look of the ship), but they're sized pretty nicely. Personally, I'd make the nacelle pylons more in-line with the Sovereign design than the Galaxy design. That way, they'd really compliment the slick, swept back lines of the saucer. Maybe removing more of the hull between the pylons would do the trick.

I know it's a little late to be talking about the design, but now that I see how nice this ship is going to be (especially with the saucer design), I thought I'd pay this ship a little extra attention. ;)

some more windows and hull paneling done.

Looks like she is coming along nicily hopefully she will not be to high in polys to make it into SFC.

After looking at her I do have to say glad I don't have the job of cleaning the windows on her

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #273 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:26:21 PM »

glad you like the saucer phaser, but yeah, the main mesh is way past alterations. The pylons are built to demonstrate a sort of unibody construction with the secondary hull, instead of being attached on. Also, in the back story of the ship, I'll talk about how as the ship reaches high velocities, the engines tried to run away from the ship in early testing, leading to the beefy pylons. (Ala Voy: Threshold).

The ship is Beautiful DJ!

No wonder it's called the Eclipse class! It looks big enough to cause one! Great design, kinda looks like a cross between the Sovereign and Galaxy classes, IMO.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #276 on:** July 10, 2009, 10:59:53 PM »

I'm really pleased about the positive feedback. I'm hoping that once this ship hits the community it will strike a chord like the Enterprise F.

Some panel lines on the saucer. I'm such a slow texturer because i basically check every detail I add to see if I like it. I'm sort of a nazi that way.

FarShot · « **Reply #277 on:** July 11, 2009, 12:00:31 AM »

I'm sorry, but this never will be the Ent G in my book. Enterprise has to have a circular/elliptical saucer or I don't like it.
Although it's still pretty.

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #278 on:** July 11, 2009, 12:03:37 AM »

It's a better Ent-G than the Soulwolf...or was the Soulwolf an F? Either way, textures are looking good though the name below the reg number still freaks me out.

Aeries · « **Reply #279 on:** July 11, 2009, 12:16:59 AM »

I don't think I can ever look at it seriously though with the smiley face on the bow with the phaser array and all.

Hehe. Looks good dude.
