[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Harry: [qb][b]Oh Mighty Monkey[/b]: IIRC, there were no visible phaser banks on the 1701 model and FJ made them up himself. Thus, that difference between the Hermes and Saladin is irrelevant, because 'really' neither of the two ships have visible phaser banks. Thanks for bringing up the torp launchers, though. Oh, and the same thing also goes for the Federation, I didn't forget to add them, they just aren't visible. To avoid all the sensor/deflector mess, I'm just going to draw the Federation as depicted in the SFTM. Oh, and about that saucer rim, FJ's schematics are not very accurate at all, and if the Federation's saucer is made of Constitution parts, this rim is correct, and [i]his[/i] is too thin. HA![/qb][/QUOTE]Okay, I can completely understand why one would want to make the Connie herself more accurate to the model than to FJ's drawings. But as to the other three FJ ships, the only thing ever seen of them onscreen was the FJ schematics themselves. (Well, not the Federation, but...) Your premise of making them all constructed solely of Connie parts is flawed, in that this is not the factual case. While the Connie might not have had phaser mounts visible, the Saladin and Federation [i]did[/i]. And, why assume that the Federation saucer is constructed of two Connie saucer halves? Is its secondary hull a modified Connie piece? No. The thin rim on the drawing indicates it is a design-specific piece. I definitely appreciate your work and apologize for nitpicking. Sorry. :( -[b]MMoM[/b] :D P.S. Could you perhaps also make an alternate sketch showing the Federation with its proper one-intercooler nacelle? -[b]MM[/b] [/QB][/QUOTE]
