Another attempt at my first-ever starship design, which previously existed only in hand-drawn pencil sketch form.

Yes, it's only one view, and it's a Paint picture (which for some reason keeps blurring when I convert it to a jpeg), and it isn't very detailed.

But it's there anyway.

Meh, it looks ok. I'd like to see it when you add more details to it.

That's about as detailed as it's going to get... I just don't have the free time I used to.

Actually, I keep hoping that someone will see my designs and like them enough to say "Hey, those are kind of neat, mind if I take them to the next level?"

To which I will say "email me a copy of the finished work and give me a co-creator byline, and it's a deal."

A Mirandized Sovreign, sort of. Needs many more lifepod hatches -- I just can't draw them in an arc.

Hmmm... The Invictus could definitely go places. Any ideas about the underside? Is there an kind of an engineering bulge down there?

I like the bussards... they remind me of the ones on the Argo.

Reminds me of the Vesudan fighters in Conflict Freespace. Thoths or something.

Actually, the Invictus's primary hull was originally intended to be a Sovreign-style saucer section, so there wouldn't be much of a bulge down there, if any. Since I never drew the bottom, I leave it up to the next artist. I kind of intended to include landing feet, but didn't.
