Yeah. Pub did the original set for the Nova. Then scaled them up to 150% when he did the Rhode Island variant.Quote:

Not sure 'why', but it's not a hard thing to do, and the larger the resolution, the clearer the detail.
That's what it was, the re-sizing to 150%. Thanks for jogging my memory.Quote:

I have a couple PM requests, if anyone else would like a copy just let me know, I'll likely get to send them out tomorrow.
I also stumbled across a really kick-@$$ copy of the USS Raven (Aeries class) set of deckplans, 2 or 3 or 4 decks as I recall, if I remember right (it was a while ago) they were on a graphic art type site. Not sure if I stumbled upon it through here or just surfing.
If anyone's interested I can fire them off too ...
My only claim to fame is that I recommended to Pub for the Rhode Island was using the Intrepid bridge for the "upgrade".Quote:

Please and thank you.
So, wait, did he upscale the ship or just made the plans bigger?Quote:

Definitely, and nothing saying they can't be upgraded to be a little more capable. As I understand it they're not a Starfleet vessel but rather a Federation one, used by the Science Council and such. That could actually work though.Quote:

Endless possibilities.
