Sure thing. I'm in the middle of some home repairs this weekend but I'll try to get them soon. Please remember that the deflector housing and (stubby) pylons are not fully developed.

No problem my Freind, I will wait until you tell me it is all done before I even start contruction on the ship.

Hey, if I decide to make a conversion kit for the 1/1000 PL kit, how are we going to work the commission here!

Four Mad Men · Model Grand Pooba

I'm sure we can work something out on that. If you do plan on doing that perhaps we should work together here too so I don't design anything that would be difficult (or impossible) to mold.

See, I don't care what Lloyd says, You are Smart !!!

lloyd II · Model Overlord

You mean somebody pays attention what I say?

Four Mad Men · Model Grand Pooba

Of course we don't. It was all just a clever trick, the purpose of which we're not sure. But oh yes, it was most clever.

Tholian · Model Overlord

BTW, you said you still have some owrk to do on this. What else is there to do?

Four Mad Men · Model Grand Pooba

Among other things the nacelles will be changed to what we see Pike using in "The Cage". Which is more work than you might realize as the current nacelles are very crude low poly monstrosities. Then there is the design work on the deflector housing and pylons. Followed by more texturing. It's not far off but these things can add up and I also tend to tweak things too much.

Tholian · Model Overlord

Can I make suggestions?

lloyd II · Model Overlord

Oh wait, you haven't given the suggestion yet.

Four Mad Men · Model Grand Pooba

Absolutely, suggest away. Watch out for flying tomatoes though.

Tholian · Model Overlord

Well, on the underside of the Warp Pylons, be sure to put some Grill work, same way the Big "E" had on the pylons of the Warp engines.

I will look at it more and let you know what else.

lloyd II · Model Overlord

I got a comment. On the, I guess you still call it, engineering section, it needs some markings. I don't know if the ones on the 1701, will look right. But it needs something.

Four Mad Men · Model Grand Pooba

Agreed to both comments. The deflector housing is purely a placeholder right now. The overall shape will remain the same but just need to add some details like those you guys just mentioned.
