What in the nine hells were they thinking when they designed the Freedom class!?! [Confused]
I'm building one right noow, but I can't leave it the say the studio model depicts: it's senseless.
I'm swapping the insanely oversized torpedo launcher for a deflector dish and adding a torp launcher to the saucer's ventral side.
Any other improvements you'd reccomend before te final paintjob is done?

Maybe adding an impulse engine. I retained the saucer units for mine, but whatever they used for the Freedom and Niagara saucers, there were no impulse engines mounted on the saucers. There may or may not be an impulse engine on the Niagara, but it's pretty evident the Freedom Class miniature didn't have one.

It will on mine: I used your ship as reference and decieded that the side Impulse engines look way better than one single block at the saucer's rear. [Wink]

Look kids! New pictures!

I have posted my new Nebulas (USS Beowulf and USS Neptune), my Chyenne class refit (USS Proxima, named for the lost Nebula class) and best of all:
My "Medusa" class USS Enkidu.
I used the CGI pics by The Red Admiral (look up that old thread!) as reference for this ship and tried to take pics that match his CGI shots. [Big Grin]
Opinions?
