Thanks to the "worst fan design ever" thread as well as the posting of the <i>Winged Defender</i> image, I'm prompted to post 2 ideas I had.<br /><br />The first I call the <A href="http://lobotomy.pleh.net/~flareupload/uploads/343/twinakira.jpg" target="new">"twin Akira"</A> for obvious reasons. It's silly looking & stupid & altogether good for a laugh.<br /><br />The second is inspired by the WD image, which I've always loved. Sometimes when I build models, I'll C&P-bash them on the computer first to see how the pieces can or would fit together; that's how my <i>Richmond</i>-class cruiser came about. A while ago, I saw a few pictures of a Romulanized <i>K'tinga</i> on Starship Modeler. It was based on simply upgrading the old TOS idea of Roms using Klingon ships; I loved how they greened it out & make the new feather patterns. So I started thinking about how maybe that happened all the way through the movies & I came up with the idea of the <A href="http://lobotomy.pleh.net/~flareupload/uploads/343/rbop.gif" target="new">Romulanized KBoP</A>. This one...I actually really like & maybe one day, I'll buy the BoP model to build it, as I know I have an old beak & warbird nacelles hanging around here in parts boxes.<br /> <br /> <small>[ June 28, 2002, 11:12: Message edited by: Shik ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>First of Two</b> <br /><small>Member # 16</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(2002,5,27,19,0,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 27, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">07:00 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I shall call it.. the RomBoP!<br /><br />Er.. it's very ugly as is, but there's some potential to turn it into a not-bash design...<br /><br />Make the "head" smaller, cut it off right below where the "neck" bottom joins it.<br /><br />Shrink the "leg" cannons about 50%<br /><br />Delete the BoP warp engines, of course (replace with shuttlebay / rear plasma launcher?)<br /><br />"Bird up" the engines a little. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#A3B9CC"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Shik</b> <br /><small>Member # 343</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(2002,5,27,22,0,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 27, 2002</span> <span class="timeformat-0">10:00 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I wish I could, Rob, but the scale you see is pretty much what the parts would be.
