The ship is pretty configurable. It has 2 rear arc option mts, 4 non weapon option mts in the rear of the main hull, and the 4 APR (also in the rear of the main hull) can also be swapped out for nonweapon systems. I've used the 8 nonweapon opt mts as shuttle bays in my shiplist to convert it into a light carrier variant. If there isn't one already out there, would anyone be willing to make one?

What do ya think?
(Don't want to volunteer you for anything Magnum, I just think your SFB ships kick booty and that makes you a prime candidate!)
Post by: FireSoul on January 20, 2004, 09:35:55 am
I know it's got TMP warps, but start from this to describe your needs?
.. and then there's the F-HDW from fleetdock 13..

I really have no clue what the ship looks like. I have an SSD of the DW which I definitly have a unique idea design for, but the DW is waaaaayyy down the road in projects.At the moment, I'm working on the Fed Police Cutter.

I really like your SFB CA and her sister ships you made recently. They are a really neat take on these otherwise traditional ships.
You'll always have me as a fan!

Hey Kaenyne, thank you for the kind words. I'm glad a few people do like my SFB work. Actually, the HDW is on my "too do" list, but unfortunetly I don't have the SSD.
Check yer PM's.

FireSoul, I know that you have R6. The Fed on the cover just needs a second lower nacelle (and TMP styling) and it'd be perfect. Where the drones are launching from could be where the RA opt mts go. The rear deck could be configured for the NW option mts. At least that's what I have in my head.
Azel is going to do one of his conceptual drawings for me (I'm not going to give you guys the opportunity to laugh at me by trying to do it myself.
).Thanks again, everyone.

Hey Don, I didn't see the "Charger" class at your sight that Stylsy retextured. I'd like to get it, if possible.

I always thought the Phobos looked like a good HDW. It has a weapons pod with a rear torp. Good design and well made model.
here are some pics:
Dizzy can you PLEASE send me the saucer textures you have there for the Phobos? I really want to add this to the FASA Collection as a variant.
Rod, check out Potempkin's signature with the Archangel picture in it.

can you send me the mod by email, will be great with the other destroyer. donkarnage@videotron.ca

The Top is the Vigillance-Class (a little more daring
) The Bottom, the Alliance ( more Traditional??? )
I am working on the top Veiws now...but here is the Top saucer view of the Alliance
The nacelles are placed similar to the Constellation-Class...but will be wider apart...
sorta just past the sensor pallets (those long rectangles
) with Torpedo tudes in between them Enjoy

here are the pics from masaos ubercool starfleet museum site:
http://www.starfleet-museum.org/spectre.jpg
isnt that a beauty?
imagine the loadout of it: 10 standart phasers, 2 megaphasers and 4 torptubes (wich means 8 torpedos if those tubes are the same as on the conny refit)
the story behind the ships tells its a intellegence ship(i read something about a cloaking device buti might be wrong) but it think it would make a real cool wardestroyer or an x ship.
i love that design.
i know skinman began aspectre class ages ago. but someone should finaly bring the spectre to sfc. if someone would make that ship i would try to help whereve i can. i might make some textures for it (i cant aply them so the modeler should make some basic textures wich i would modify
) or i would make some nosearts for it. spectre class is just too cool
Post by: Fury_of_a_Seraph on January 21, 2004, 08:49:51 pm
A) the markings arent pretty, i think, it looks too much like a ship the Orions would use, not the Federation
2) the nacelles. Round nacelles in TMP in my mind = bad.
III) the saucer doesnt look like a feddie design either
And where is the Deflector?
Post by: ganymad on January 21, 2004, 09:17:59 pm
the deflector might be in the small secondary hull or there might be a mirindalike deflector on the underside of the saucer section - i dont know but as it isnt shown in the picture its a matter of interpretation.
round engines? well they are rounded - but not realy round. excelsior nacces also are rounded sa that isnt a real argument.
however. i would love to see that ship in sfc. but thats just me. others might see this differently and thats whats discussion is all about.
damn i love that forum 
.greatings,

I am unsure why i dont like the spectre as much as other TMP ships.
Maybe im just biased
EDIT: fixed spelling.

WOW! I'm overwhelmed, man! Those are both really nice. Call me conservitive, but I like the bottom (traditional) design. Thanks a lot. Did someone say that they wanted to make one?
Post by: Arcanum on January 21, 2004, 10:42:49 pm
I like the "Spectre" looks like a heavy fast attack . . I can the forrunner of the Intrepid design in her lines. 2variants? excelsior and the short engines after all feds did experimental craft too! The "splash" design on top different I dont mind it
Rod . .
I like the Vigillance . . she a destroyer or maybe a New Fast Cruiser . either way I can find room or make a class for that ship!
thx

Send me an email and I'll reply to it. Make sure you tell me what you want. Either the texture or the whole thing. I'll zip it to you.

Don,
It's in Stylsy's post for the terran retextures that he's done. Top center. He gives you credit for it.
Stylsy,
I stole your pic, man. Thanks.

Anyway, I have an older model that I found on a European site that may interest you.It's low poly and not very detailed but it is a start if you want I can send it to you.It sounds like what you're looking for as the spectre platform.

a heavy war destroyer? hm, id love to see the spectre done. its a very nice ship wich looks fast and looks different from all those conny like ships.dont get me wrong - i love the conny and most of the kitbashes made of her parts but the feds can use some ships wich have an own style.

ABout this thing.. I've done some work in the past for a smaller class of ship. However, I kept the WIPs which could be used to create something similar to this. I used the lotus cargo ship's nose.. (Kobayashi Maru markings are still present.
If this is what you're looking for, then I think a bit of retexturing is all you need.

No.. but I was thinking more of a Fast Destroyer which also do not exist.
