But I think you need an original saucer design as the basis, something pointy like the <i>Intrepid</i>, but without a design that utilises a <i>Galaxy</i> cross-section. Otherwise, it'll still be too round and might interfere with the placing of the nacelles, which I think should be at the sides, not attached to the lower rollbar. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Fedaykin Supastar</b> <br /><small>Member # 704</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2002,2,16,7,39,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">March 16, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">07:39 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> hey thanx to Joe Brown, for those links.<br />yeah i thought that some of those scratchbuilds were really good and shouldve been in the show so i totally agree wit your comment Aban.<br /><br />To Vogon, about the saucer i was thinking of something along the lines of a pointy <i>Intrepid</i> style saucer since a Galaxy shaped ellipse would be too wide (like u mentioned).
