    Nice. What do you envision for the ventral side of the saucer?

    Just the sensor Dome. Everything that the ship needs is in the saucer :)

    Ah a platypus :D
    Seems like a b/c deck instead of just the bridge would work better? Doesn't have to be an oval like the tos. Just seems tacked on as an afterthought ..
    Otherwise very nice!:bolian:

    ^ I’m glad you put an ‘i’ in that class name, for a RL obscure reason.

    On two of the ships I was assigned to during my military stint, they had a machinery/propulsion control system manufactured (and supposedly maintained by) a company named ‘TANO’, based in New Orleans.

    Both designs were so problematic & temperamental enough that we’d joke that TANO stood for ‘Totally Automated, Never Operating’… :rofl: :scream: :wah: :guffaw::guffaw:

    Cheers,

    The Taino is an interesting design! It feels like it would function more like the equivalent of a fast PT boat than destroyer, IMHO :)

    Really like that ring ship.
    So hard to make a ring look good on a starship. Awkward. Yours is awesome!

    And shows that it's not a homosapiens only design burrow

    Oeh! more awesome ships, I agree with @valkyrie013 your ringship looks like a normal everyday usable ship. And do tell more about the Khalkha class. :shifty:

    LOL thanks brother.

    Thanks! What would you like to know?

    Hmmm...I never saw the flic, so I am not sure as to what you are referring to. A little help? :D

    3 rings spinning like a gyroscope
    Contact had a wormhole device that had huge rings that spun around and a pod was dropped in.

    Hmmm I see. But then the shuttlebay would be destroyed, no?
