Windows, yes.. on top indeed, though maybe only the outer edge of the saucer.

Count your decks Asylum, at the end, they dictate a lot of stuff on the ship, including size. Take 3.5 meters for one decks height.
Easy is the path to wisdom for those not blinded by themselves.

Thanks jay... and thanks adonis... thinking about it logically.. their are only a handfull of decks in the saucer, so their is no need for windows really.. unless they where roof ones in someones room... but thats a bit wierd.. ;)

thanks fellas  ;)

Very very nice. The squares on the saucer are escape pods yes? I was wondering is red the usual outline for those, have you thought of looking at caution yellow to break up the mass of red?

questions.. is their enough room on the rim of the decks following the bridge to add windows? possibly smaller different shaped ones?.. change phaser array to a gray scheme? and how do u all feel about removing the rear shuttle bay and adding a fly through mcdonalds for when she is docked?

lol..

thanks guys.. oh... i was serious about the first two

looks nice, though i would suggest you try not to add 3d appearances to escape pods (ie don't use bevel).  it tends to lead to an optical illusion on whether is up or down.  My suggestion would to be use a very light drop shadow that is not directional (ie no distance from the casting source).  it provides a much better illusion that way.  Might ask if you are going to color the panel work eventually or are you going to leave it as line art?

I really like the choice of coloring for the details so far.

thanks guys.. oh... i was serious about the first two

a) Known what?  I'd add windows to the top bevel, but not the bottom one.. it'd look too cluttered then.. maybe an obs window in the back though, or an Officer's Lounge or "Ten Forward" style windows right in the very back only.. similar to what you see on the TMP Connie..
b) I'd go with the color change for the phasers to a darker grey, yeah..
c) Wouldn't work with the theme.. ;)
..ooOOoo..totally useless information..ooOOoo..
