I have also experienced this throughout the day. I'm accessing from Canada.

Usually, after a few refreshes, it seems to load up. Perhaps just a high traffic day.  :idk:

Seems to be okay now. I've noticed PB has been having issues for the last month or so. Glad it's not just me. :p

Need to do the deflector dish, and phasers, the. It should be ready for smoothing out.

Update on the Avenger. I've cut the Deflector housing, just needs some cleaning up. Also blocked out the impulse units.

Reshaped the impulse engines a bit and started to add some detail.

Looks a little crowded, perhaps just have one larger one each

lol where as i would say the double looks good

if you went back one maybe have a built up "U" shape around the crystal

I like the double, just looks better to me. However, I was also concerned that it may have been too much.

What do you mean?

You can also drop it down from 4 to 3.
A center impulse and two excelsior b types sticking slightly out.
Just a suggestion.
