Ok the Oberth has some support, good.

Apparently, SFB has a new .. less 'preggers' version based more on the 'new' model of K-7 than a bad memory of it. I haven't seen it yet, though.
USS Diana Class Scout
Today I'm mostly trying to 'repair and replace' the ships missing from my first guide - due to losing a lot of files when my computer crashed at the tail end of last fall. So, today's ship isn't much.. just the 'scout' version of yesterday's destroyer.
USS Taurus Class Cruiser
Yes... again...
Finally figured out that Steve Long was going for the TNG New Orleans class in his description, but he did it so badly it didn't make a lot of sense. To make THAT work, though, I had to ditch the rest of his measurements (worse than FASA, mind you), and redo the ship from scratch.
And looks a little taller from the side also.Originally Posted by C. Huth

Even the best have "FASA moments," I guess.
Yeah, on the side view, the bridge is nearly level with the tops of the nacelles. On the front view, it's well below.
Still, that's a lot prettier than the last version.

I was focused on redoing the lines overall so much, I must have mismatched a few. I'll get it fixed and reposted today.
I don't normally do this, but, sometimes it pays to show what I was working with, to give you and idea of where I tend to go... This is the Federation Science Station, F-39, from FASA's "The Vanished".
FASA's original
My redraw...
Cool, have you seen Owen's version of the Federation Science Station?

The F-39, or a Regula One version? Either way.. nope. :SOriginally Posted by Phoenix
USS Cochise Class Torpedo Destroyer
Still going through my mess. I'm hoping to be able to get quick 'redo' of my Vol 1 today. (My computer crash last fall lost the original source files, hence all my rebuilding now). So I needed to get this ship, the TOS Miranda, and the MacKinzie all done... while learning the idiosyncracies of Paint Shop Pro 10.02 ... heh.
Anyway, this ship is basically yet another 'Saladin' variant, using two engines instead of one, flanking the 'torpedo pod' down below. The TMP version is better, since it doesn't have the deflector dish slightly blocking the way... Again, not my design. :S
USS MacKenzie Class Frigate
One of FASA's 'rare' ships (from Stardate), this is a 'bulldog' ship, heavily powered and well armed, but lacking nearly all the niceties for the crew. Smaller-sized saucer used to correct scaling issues.
Last one before rebuilding the text of the guide.. USS Miranda, TOS Style
Not entirely happy with it, as the Miranda requires some TMP parts to make sense and look right, but, eh, what the hell, the TOS universe has a shortage of frigates anyway.
