A cookie from me too, she's really shaping up again.

Thanks. I suppose I should show that the ventral saucer is underway concurrently.

She is even better second time round Sir.

I see the class a the successor to the Galaxy class. When I look at the top of the saucer and see all those windows it reminds me of the 1701-D.

Keep up the excellent work but this just goes to show even the best are constantly learning.

True that man. Every time a new ship comes along, new skills and ideas follow.

Biggins · « **Reply #407 on:** November 28, 2009, 07:29:11 PM »

A successor to the galaxy class indeed! But definently an improvement on it. I don't take the name enterprise lightly in trek but i think the eclipse is worthy of the title, god i sound like a fanboy lol

Agreed on both counts. She has similarities to the Galaxy, but a far sleeker and, IMO, graceful design. In fact, I personally believe this ship deserves the name Enterprise more than the Ent-D did. Keep on learning DJ, your ships continue to set standards.

Well, I still think Probert's ship is the best Starfleet ship ever designed, canon or not. It's just perfect in every single way. But thanks!

Some further work. Reused thruster and bridge textures, with a color change to the bridge. Check out the big forward observation windows below the bridge. That's the ship's "ballroom".

That's pretty nifty there. Good view for a ballroom.

This is loads better than the old texture set man. One thing I would personally change tho are those greenish-yellow panels. I'd make them a really pale shade of yellow.

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #412 on:** November 29, 2009, 02:45:24 AM »

Hull colors are not set in stone yet.

Did the sensor strips, windows and lifeboats on the ventral saucer, as well as rim windows and thrusters.

Biggins · « **Reply #413 on:** November 29, 2009, 03:06:40 AM »

Good god man! You work fast!

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #414 on:** November 29, 2009, 04:02:16 AM »

Well, if you consider I've been working on it all day... maybe not so much. lol

Check out the main impulse engine. In the original design, this was the area I intended to be the impulse, but during the texturing process I turned it into a shuttle bay zone. I reverted back to the original, and now have what I think is a pretty cool looking impulse engine. Reminds me of the tail lights on my '87 T Bird.

she's pretty..

Vladko1 · « **Reply #416 on:** November 29, 2009, 06:33:57 AM »

Woow, it is looking very futuristic ;) and is very beutiful. I like those engines.

Billz · « **Reply #417 on:** November 29, 2009, 08:33:16 AM »

In that post, the first picture makes the Eclipse look absolutely beautiful.

And for the engine: I can almost imagine steam flying out of it.

so, that ball room is Eclipse class interpretation of 10-forward? sweet
