Klingon concept (WIP)

[Achilles]

Well thankyou all for the feedback, alot of it very useful. Maj, well illustrated there.

I desided it did need more of a head, and a bridge. I thickened up those middle nacelles and crew them in, lost some of the armour aswell. I'll be completely redoing the big nacelles but I like the positioning, I took that part from the Fek'Lar.

Any other thoughts?

That is a klingon no question about it. Good work man. Depending on how big this beasty is suposs to be might want to make the bridge more pronouced. The smaller the ship the more pronouced the bridge.

Much improvement there, no question. Thumbs up on the design.

Might I also suggest tapering the neck pylons and angling them together, kinda like the Romulan Griffin class. The straight necks are not very klingon.

I agree with the comments about making the head wider and making the neck long but take out the gap.

I think the wings could be curved up slightly like the Negh'var, then this would be continuing the ships from that line.

Really bold design though.

[Achilles]

bold and unique I'm hoping for, though I get the feeling you're imaging it's a larger ship than it is, I'm working for Fek'Lar siz, perhaps smaller.

came up with a more interesting head design and totally redid the nacelles, I think it looks like a smaller ship now though they may be too bulky (is too bulky possible on a klinker?)...

oh and I really do appreciate the help, some designs are just a lot of work to get right.

Personally, I prefer the original nacelles. Them new ones make her look more like an attack ship (the bird of prey) than they do a Frigate. You'll probably curse me for saying it too, but I also prefer the 'second' head opposed to your third (latest) version. I'm just not so sure about that dome.

The rest of the changes and additions fit in quite well though.

[archerscott]

I think Aerilion is right, the new parts on the nacelles do make it look like an attack vessel.

Even if its a Klingon science ship they would equip it for attack though, so the look might fit after all.

What about the suggestion for neck pylons like the Griffin Class? Klingon and Romulans have always been close in design.

For the bridge dome, how about making it bigger and circular? Or adding another smaller tower at the front as the nose front looks bare.

Have you got any side and back views?

[starfox1701]

I too would go with pic 2 neccells but other than that I'd say the ship is perfect.

[undedavenger]

Actually the more I look at it, the more it grows on me, though I liked the old nacelles as well. They were rather unique and fresh, and the new ones look too common. I'd say leave the neck the way it is. There are too many "long-single-necked" klingon designs. Do they have to base EVERYTHING on the D7? How boring would the fed be if they all looked like the connie?
