Ok, here are the compare pics. Youll notice that the bridges are the same size, which is what I used to scale the rest of the ship properly.
Looking at these you can tell that the last thing this ship is is graceful. It looks downright portly compared to the sleek Sovereign. Thats the intent...this ship has massive amounts of armor, sacrificing impulse and warp speed for survivability. This vessel was specifically designed to engage in long battles with other capital ships and survive. It has 5 times the armor and 3 times the firepower of the Sov, but only about 70 percent of the maneuverability and 80 percent of her speed.
The fore alpha strike from this ship is especially murderous...it should be enough to completely destroy a ship in the Vorcha class range if in overload status at relatively close range. Even at long range the heavy cannons in the saucer are strong enough to collapse a single shield face on most capital ships.
Notice that the relative size (length) of the warp nacelles are the same, but they are more bulky...this represents the same output but more armor. Unlike Sov nacelles these can take quite a beating and still function, including direct hits to the radiator vents. The textures will show Defiant-like honeycomb armor on the vents, much like my Falcon design.
Not just the warp core but the ENTIRE engineering section can be jettisoned and the ship will remain fully functional...using the core in the saucer section. It can also jettison both nacelles and still travel at warp, using the saucer nacelles instead. Also note that the hangar bay is huge...it has a rear door and a dorsal spine door that can open ala-space shuttle to allow larger vessels inside the bay. She has a smaller hanger deck up on the dorsal spine as well, similar in location to the Sovs upper bay.
At any rate, here are the pics.
