Neat. I might suggest pulling together the forward "points" of the secondary hull and making the transition between the hull and the nacelle pylons a bit smoother. Other than that it looks pretty good. i like the way you've got the bridge pushed far forward, as well as the secondary. Kinda reminds me of when Chrysler introduced "Cab-forward" design in their cars back in the early 90's.

the protrusions on the ventral side (comming out from the deflector area) seem to have been taken a bit to far to the point of being a tad silly. Otherwise I like the overall contour of the design.

Puting the point together looks, well just not right hes a quick mock up to show you. The pylons are just place holders. I wanted to make something with the secondary hull as far forward as possible but still make it sleek and not look like its over weight thats the only way i could think to do it. Im open to suggestions if anyone can think of a way to acoplish that. cheers for the coments so far!

No, don't put in a quantum turret...they're overdone...and this is from a guy who's best starship design has two of the things.

I didn't mean to put them right together, just curve them inward.

Not bad; I think it's a little blocky however. Good job though - most people can't model worth sh*t.

i think he should put a turret but a twin launcher turret and two launchers on the side of the secondary hull insted of below the deflector housing
