Based on a description. I'd like to see how different people interpret it.
TOS-era starship, from the Constitution/Miranda family tree.
The secondary hull is attached directly to the saucer section, from the mid point back (i.e., there is no neck, the two sections "merge" into each other). The bottom of the saucer is flat, to allow for the deflector to be unblocked. The nacelles are level with the lower section of the secondary hull, and are attached via "L" shaped pylons emerging from the upper half of the secondary hull.
On the spine of the secondary hull, and rising near aft-section of the primary hull, a conning tower is topped with a torpedo launcher, just above bridge height.
If you design this ship as pencil to paper, or computer image, please post your interpretation of this design.
Thanks.

Shouldn't this thread be a ways down?
Can't help you with the design, but if you need a bridge...
I have some ideas for this chalenge too though... ...something like a TOS era Andor design.

Mmm, I'm intrigued. Got specs or mission parameters? Crew complement, area of operations, expected mission types? For example, the Merrimac has an unusual warp nacelle configuration - this could be reflected on the bridge by expanded or dual engineering consoles.
Message me - we'll talk.

She should carry about 350-400 crew, expected mission types include long-range exploration, and defense of Federation interests. Essentially, the same as the Constitution-Class.
