Does its name start w/ "CSS"?

Hmm. I wonder if that configuration would work. A four-nacelled cruiser-type configuration...

I'd say so. It was originally supposed to look like that Rigel class people came up with (you know, the Galaxy saucer, Connie neck...) but turned into this.

And she has 23 decks, by the way.

I'd say that if it could be done with the Prometheus, this is also possible. But this design is just too fat for my tastes. Hmmm... CSS Lard... CSS Fat Tubby?

Revision. I changed how the nacelles were connected, some edges and curves, colors, and took out a few windows.

It's named the Confederate Class, BTW. [Wink]

Yee-haw, and all that.

Cheer up!!! I might actually do a top view!!

I don't mind the saucer, or the connection to the secondary hull, but the nacelles and the pylons just aren't working.

Don't worry...

An hour makes a difference, folks!

That's quite an improvement, but I think it looks better if the nacelle pylon connected lower on the secondary hull and maybe if they extend out horizontally first and then angle upward.

Do you still think it is the USS Lard?

PS: She no longer has 23 decks, but fewer. BUt she's long though, about the size of a Ambassador give 25-50 meters. [Wink]

Well, not now. That was only inferred on the first design which was a little too "fat". Now that you've streamlined the design a lot more, it no longer applies.
