[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] I was digging through the old post archives a month or so ago and came across a few threads pertaining to this odd and contraversial design. Lots of people [i]hate[/i] it, so you just [i]know[/i] I had to build my own version. My version is kinda refit on the Curry (as it uses refit parts): [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/1069361/126848686.jpg]USS Helios[/URL] [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/1069361/126848678.jpg]Side view[/URL] [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/2515785/126848584.jpg]Flyby[/URL] [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/2515785/126848580.jpg]Front[/URL] I took some needed design liberties here- chiefly was modding the oversized nacelles a bit. The nacelles are not as disproportionate as the studio model's are and I've tweaked the bussard collector to be a bit more "TNG" looking. TO give the saucer a bit more clearance, I used two "necks" stacked on each other. I also moved the forward hangar opening even [i]farther[/i] forward to give the secondary hull a "Goblin Shark" look that I find appealing, and replaced the standard two aft torpedo tubes with three of my own design (it lacked coverage back there, IMHO). So, is it a carrier of shuttles? Fighters? A class all it's own or a part of a group of Excelsior variants? I also made up a new design from the "Lost Era" for your parusal: [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/2515785/126848574.jpg]USS Stachran[/URL] [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/2515785/126848572.jpg]Aft view[/URL] [URL=http://pic14.picturetrail.com/VOL544/657989/2515785/126848570.jpg]Flyby[/URL] Opinions?
