Hmmm ok, Ill re think the buzzards thanks fellas... nice edit athorhaven... lol  ;)


No worries.. ;)

But I left room on the edit to give you a space above the bussards for your pulse phaser emitters while giving a suggestion of the Defiant bussards below.

Personally though, I think setting the bussard area to look similar to the Ericson would look better.. but then you're left with where to put your pulse phasers.. (leading wing edges?)


..ooOOoo..totally useless information..ooOOoo..

Hey AsYlUm, how's about an Arrow bumpdate!  :)

I hope your PT is going well. I just had some minor surgery on my back and it went wellish   :-\ - PT starts Monday... I'm gonna use some of my down time to catch up on some gonkulator projects and things around the net.

I'm out the country (USA) and have limited opportunities to get internet access. I got a chance to get my "netfix" and was surprised to see the Arrow fall of the front page.

Palease don't let her die a third time AsYlUm ! I can port her if you can get her finished. If she falls for the third time - she may never be part of SFC. I'll be back at home in a month or so.

OH!  I've always loved this design!  I remember when we were discussing what a Federation Hopper would look like and the Arrow was the most logical choice.  I can picture these landing on the battlefield dropping off Marines to engage the Klingons or Dominion troops.

The squares here on the side, would those happen to be doors?  Considering how low they are, it looks like it'd be a good spot for quick in and out.

I look forward to seeing update.  Such a Beautiful ship  :)  I'm gonna think of a list of names for this baby.  Something to compliment the Sovereign Class USS Victory I created for a story I'm writing.  Hmm, yes it's going to be glorious lol.

So here we are again on this. i am manually adding in the aztecing to show hull plating... its slow work getting alligned and that, but i think the outcome will be worth it... especially since these are very basic... and will have weathiring and heavy panelling added on top.... the theme should flow from fron to rear... the underside will be darker as per orig design.

Thanks for taking the mantle back up! She looks sweeter every time I see her. What's the poly count so far?

Any ideas for names?  I was thinking of maybe naming them after Volcanoes like Vesuvius or Etna.  Just a thought.  I see the first one is named Toronto so it's up to the creator.

I am so in love with this ship :D.  The textures are looking great markyd, can't wait to see her belly.  OK, so we could have Volcanoes for names, but I also came up with Native American Tribes, since she is the Arrow class.  I just think bow and arrow when I hear Arrow Class.  I figure I'll just create a list of names and see what everyone thinks.  Everyone should think of some names!

Tribes:

Apache
Arikara
Comanche
Cowichan
Karok
Laguna
Makah
Miwok
Nootka
Tolowa
Mohave
Navajo
Wailaki

Volcanoes:

Mazama
Vesuvius
Fuji
Tambora
Llullaillaco
Krakatau
Pelee
Mauna Loa

Nevado del Ruiz

El Chichon
Cotopaxi

I added some more names to the Volcano list to even it out.  Also, how is this ship going to be numbered?  Will it be like the Delta Flyer, where she was simply a more advanced shuttle with the Voyager's registry on her hull, or like a Runabout where she has her own unique registry?

I think in the manner a runabout would be numbered would be quite fitting due to the size of the ship :)

Majestic - other than than I'm nearly speechless. Thanks for sharing. The third time is most definitely the charm for this little baby. If you know what specs you want, I'll HP/DP and convert her for you at a moments notice - to include a brk mod. Just give me a holler.

Majestic Class Runabout - enemies of the Federation better watch out!
