Looks nice Baz, I wonder what it would look like if you added the engineering department under it and let it hang back.

Rebuilt the aft end of the JJmiranda

Nice work.

I already have plans for my interpretation of the JJ Miranda class and it looks a slight bit different than yours. Since the JJ-era ships have a different yet familiar design style, why would they build the Miranda class exactly like it was in the TWOK? You would think that they would alter it a bit. Though the Miranda class looks boxy in some areas, try to make it look a bit streamlined. I'm just giving some ideas.

What he said.

While you're at it, I would slightly reposition the nacelle pylons. If I could redesign the Miranda, I would change that horrible junction.

I will look into your sugestions.

I have deleted the beta version of the Kelvin-refit since it has been downloaded 11 times and I have only sent the link to 3 people who asked.

It is not right or fair for people to download a ship that is not ready for general release and still needs work.

In the future I will leave the nif file out of the zip and e-mail it to the beta tests to stop people using the ship before it is ready.

Peace

Indeed baz, indeed.

The Mirry looks awesome!

Pretty smart

I feel compelled to express my disappointment in the people who weren't beta testers that downloaded the beta anyways. I was slated to be one of the beta testers for the Kelvin-A, but Filefront was giving me trouble yesterday, so I did not get a chance to do so. I applaud baz's idea for preventing such a thing from occurring in the future, and I think all modders should follow suit.

The Miranda looks nifty, can't wait to see how she ends up.

nice progress mate, look forward to seeing how you play with it 8)

One thing that has always bothered me about the Miranda and other classes where the nacelles were under the ship. ( "cannon" wise ) (And especially with this nacelle design) Might it look better of the nacelles were flipped so that the bottom of the nacelles were pointing up? (always made more sense to me technologically speaking, the way they were primarily used with the pylon transfer conduits at the bottom of the nacelle) Just a thought.

But I definitely like what I see so far, far and away way better than what I could do with my limited abilities.

here is a bit of an overhaul of the Miranda

Dalek · « **Reply #52 on:** May 02, 2009, 08:07:20 AM »

I preferred the original warp nacelle pylons. Now they look like they might snap off in a breeze...forgive the analogy. But I think the nacelles are going to have to be a teensy weensy bit longer anyway. Nothing is perfect.

Libussa · « **Reply #53 on:** May 02, 2009, 08:42:38 AM »

maybe beef up the width of the nacelle pylons? Extend a bit fore and some aft, but not quite to the lip of the cowling.

Dalek · « **Reply #54 on:** May 02, 2009, 09:36:00 AM »

Thats sort of how they were before.

Libussa · « **Reply #55 on:** May 02, 2009, 09:52:18 AM »

kinda, he had em cutting through the lip of the cowling tho, and right smack in the middle of the nacelles

baz1701 · « **Reply #56 on:** May 02, 2009, 01:16:01 PM »

more new pylons.

These are the last version love or loathe them

Dalek · « **Reply #57 on:** May 02, 2009, 01:22:20 PM »

Now for the phaser cannons! :lol:

Shadowknight1 · « **Reply #58 on:** May 02, 2009, 01:26:07 PM »

I like em!

FarShot · « **Reply #59 on:** May 02, 2009, 03:05:19 PM »

Chamfer all the edges. There shouldn't be any sharp edges.
