If you've seen enough already, well here's another. Incase the image doesn't show up, here's a link to it, Nikon. You'll see a page with a link to the image.
A typical starship, except for its blue bussard collectors. The Nikon uses a new warp technology that is theoretically 100% subspace safe. The Nikon's new warp matrix also allows it to keep high warp speeds for much longer durations.
The Nikon is designed as a cruiser for patrolling the outer perimeter of Federation space. Its enhanced warp technology lets it travel greater distances quicker for keeping order and protecting the outer colonies.
The old style Nebula-class sensor pod is used to increase the range and speed of subspace communications and also for sensor sweeps of the area. There is a large shuttle bay, called the shuttle deck, in the back of the ship. This thru-deck shuttle deck, also houses a shuttle repair bay.

Clicking on the link you provided above takes me to a 404 error page. This page has the same link as the one above on it, and when I click on it, it just takes me right back to the same 404 error page.

Nice ship. Stock parts from my shipkit, but still, nice ship. Just thought I'd let you know that that stardrive section is from the Ingram class, the class ship having a registry of 2001, making it a rather old ship. If this is supposed to be a brand new ship, you might want to consider changing that stardrive.
Oh, and incidentally, thanks for coming up with a reason for the blue bussards that I've been messing around with for a while...

I have 4 big pics, 1 with saucer, 1 with engineering hulls, 1 with nacelles and 1 with misc. parts. I usually just put whatever pieces together that I think will make a cool ship. Sometimes I've made my own unique parts by combining two or three together.

Fabrux, I must ask you to include something with the shipkit you're distributing that indicates all the parts are from ships at The Starship Encyclopedia. A lot of people seem to be unaware that all the parts come from ships that either I or John T. Moltz drew. John and I put tremendous effort into these drawings (and I continue to do so with all my new ones), creating them from scratch pixel-by-pixel... and while I don't mind these drawings being proliferated all over the web, I'd like people to know who was originally responsible for them.
