Dang it Aeries, I would've NEVER noticed that if you hadn't said anything. >_<

LOL! xD "Die Borg! We'll SMILE you to death until you're dead! Buahahahaha!"

Okay I'm done spamming.

well, i wasn't really crazy about the location of those transporter emitters anyhow.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #284 on:** July 11, 2009, 01:46:01 AM »

Adjusted. made them smaller and put them in front of the forward array.
Also, didn't mention before, the lateral sensors are textured, as well as some hatches and small cargo doors on the saucer rim.

:shock: pretty.... hm, sadly, the hull doesn't look like it would offer too many ideal placements for pulse phasers like the Excalibur has.. But, in a scrap, I think this ship will do just fine even without those.

I really love this design. Good work!

She keeps getting better and better DJ.

She's a big beautiful girl DJ. The level of detail is awesome! Great job

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #289 on:** July 11, 2009, 11:59:07 AM »

That's a better place for those transporter arrays. And comparatively, those are some darn small hatches.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #290 on:** July 11, 2009, 12:05:04 PM »

I'm trying to scale down a lot of the details in order to emphasize the ship's mass.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #291 on:** July 11, 2009, 12:30:05 PM »

More hull lines done this morning. The top of the saucer is almost fully mapped, though far from being fully textured. The only part of the ship that hasn't been mapped is the cobra head.

Couple of overall shots too.

I'm definitely getting a sense of how big this ship is. I wonder though, how big is she compared to the Century?

Probably only slightly bigger.

How big is she compared to a ZPM-enhanced Wraith Hive ship though? Thats the real question!

antagonist · « **Reply #295 on:** July 11, 2009, 03:56:44 PM »

Damn. How many decks, that's the real question. I'd say somewhere around 30-40, but I'm not sure...

Loving her, DJ. Oh, and now it's an upside-down frowny :/

I'd reposition them aft of the forward torpedo tubes and see how it'll look, TBH...

gdata · « **Reply #296 on:** July 11, 2009, 04:29:39 PM »

I must admit that I did not like the design when you came up with the model, but these textures fit perfectly; they make the whole thing better proportioned. I suppose a ship of this size is allowed to look a little bit clumsy.

Vanguard · « **Reply #297 on:** July 11, 2009, 06:16:40 PM »

Can you release a smiley face variant?

Looking good though here DJ!

Lionus · « **Reply #298 on:** July 11, 2009, 06:24:50 PM »

that would be sweet! "Why so serious.. I'MMA FIRING MAH PHAZORZ!!!"

Also, I did some deck counting and window size comparison, and the Eclipse Class is indeed a big ship. Not just big, but really, really big. Perhaps somewhat larger than I intended, but that being said it doesn't bother me. She weighs in at having 59 decks, compared with the Galaxy class at 42. Eclipse is also just over twice as long as Galaxy, so the final length will be in the 1300-1400m range, or roughly similar in length to a Romulan Warbird.

Epic.
