I like the front section alot, but the engines, they are too long. They look ok in the first two pics, but not in the last one
btw, don't post it here, make a new thread, you'll be getting more attention probably

I love it! :jaw:

My only suggestion would be to move the engine pods forward, so the ends more-or-less match up with the aft hull. Otherwise, it's beautiful. :)

The engines scream "warp drive nacelles" to me, but other than that.... shiny! :D

If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well.

hi,
nice work and look nice.
but i have two critisim:

first: the engines, but the other have say enough to this.

second: i think the middle section is for a destory to vulnerable.
that there is only one really joinder between the main area and the engine area, make a good point for attacks and concentrated firing of the weapons on this point.

i dont have really a answer for this question, because the design look so very good, and i think a second joinder doesnt look so good.
so is maybe the only other alternative more armour on this section, but i dont think thats a good answer.

As I said in Kalfireth's thread, "F-in' beautiful!" Make a seperate thread for your ship Supernova and ask someone to put your ship in-game.
