This was the first ship I ever bashed and at the time it wasn't very good. I used an old mesh and textures basically because I didn't know better. At that time I had promised to revisit this one as well as several others when I got better at bashing. SO here she is, I hope you all like it !
OUTALANCE SHIPYARDS
U.S.S. Leyte Gulf NCC-74840
United Federation of Planets
Leyte Gulf-class cruiser

------------
The Leyte Gulf class cruiser was constructed with common components to both the Galaxy and Nebula class cruisers.
This was seen as logical due to the interchangeability of components between the ship classes, and also so that personnel trained to operate one class of ship could easily adapt to the others.
When the Leyte Gulf was being designed, there was discord among the top brass at Starfleet as to whether it should primarly be a scientific vessel or a combat vessel.
This discord existed as a result of the Borg incursion, and strained relations with the Cardassian Empire.
The design of the Leyte Gulf was one that pleased both sides - the upper pod could be used to house any combination of sensors of weapons, and hardware in the pod could be swapped out at any starbase.
It also employs separable saucer and drive sections, which not only keep non-combatants safe in times of trouble but also increase the offensive capabilites of the drive section.
It was also fitted with high dissipation shields to increase its defensive capabilities.

Good work!
Semper Fi, Carry On

it looks like you still need to remold the nacelle pylons, the physical model appears to have them spread wider and the deflector assembly is proportionaly smaller.

The physical model was also made with sheet styrene. Mine is proportional to the ship I used ;D

I figured you'd know how to mess with the pylons.

are there any better images of the business end of the deflector pod on the physical model?
