Description Please don't shoot at me


Another little update, this time adding the panelling to the bridge deck section, plus (what you cannot see here), making the front bar of the nacelles have the white-grey-ish standard hull colour and adding the ridges to the impulse crystal housing.

Awesome as ever.

If only I knew what all the things were, then I could tell you if I saw anything wrong with it...

I'm somewhat a maximalist, especially when it comes to the two Polarii I'm the Captain of

In other words we're our own harshest critics, a detail I might not even notice will drive you crazy 'till you get it perfect. 'Specially since she and her big sister are your babies.

Absolutely nice!

Sorry, I have to ask once again: What's the matter with your starbord nacelle?!?

Thank you!

What's the problem with the nacelle?

Bubba77 In reply to davemetlesits [2010-06-09 19:11:27 +0000 UTC]

It's dark, dead, malfunctioning... Shouldn't it be glowing blue like the port nacelle?

davemetlesits In reply to Bubba77 [2010-06-09 20:36:44 +0000 UTC]

No. In the TMP era, this style of nacelle glowed only in the inside. The outside panel was black/dark grey.

In the TNG era, both sides glowed, though.


Look at the TMP Enterprise to see it doesn't glow:

In that case, you're doomed. Because lets face, unlike the Klingons and Romulans, the Federation isn't really capable of making war ships. >

This is a warship. She's the USS Polaris, Snegurochka class light cruiser of the United Earth First Fleet, not some fancy Starfleet joyride. She's a dedicated war machine, without any Starfleet hypocricy to call her an Escort or something.

Lol, good. It's always annoyed me that the Federation Flag ship wasn't even a war ship! It annoyed me even more when it was able to hold it's own against warships of greater size, such as the D'Deridex class.
