Love the Valiant class.
I was wondering what it would look like to put the saucer higher up on the mercenary class, or putting a sphere primary on it.

I got asked about measurements, so, after some work I came up with the following: Surprisingly small if we assume that's a standard bridge dome and use the accepted 3m nominal deck height (figures rounded): L - 487m (not including nacelle length) W- 204m H - 84m (keel to top, not including the upper nacelle) The classic G has the following dimensions (length from official sources, other measurements extrapolated): L - 1853m W- 768m H - 272m The nuG has the following dimensions (measurements from production sources: L - 1438.64m W- 536.84m H - 183.32m Here's someone's reconstruction of various original G scales compared to a Connie taraniscgi.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/bsg-scale-003.jpgHere's a bonus...I had a few minutes and decided to copy the original a little more closely on the flight pods:

ya could always try the shovel head saucer and expand it to the bigger size .... would give it that tapered look like the G had instead of round ....

looks great .... might be me but the nacells look a bit too large for est of ship ..... maybe a bit smaller and maybe a bit longer might balance it out ..... plus im not a real fan of those 90 degree pylons lol .... but ship looks good as it is but can wee see a view of smaller longer engines and maybe some sort of different pylon arrangement ....

James 43a's Nova parts gave me a minor inspiration, so: Also, for some reason I have been banned at TrekBBS (I hope it's just a glitch or an Admin error). Any updates you get from me will be here for the time being.
