Description
rIvSo - Klingon Custodian Cruiser.Since I have done Romulan and Federation ships, thought I had better add the Klingons as well. Β The design is based on a Preying Mantis and fits into the TNG era between the Vor'Cha and the Negh'Var Attack Cruiser.
The forward hull blades are used for ramming their prey. Β Once they penetrate the enemy hull, the Gantry doors open for the klingons to enter directly inside the damaged ship.
She is also two ships in one - with a smaller secondary cruiser attached below.

I meant troops, this is a troop carrier after all? Or is the 2000 including troops?

Yes the troop compliment is 1800 with 200 Command Officers

Two forward and two aft. Β You see a glimpse of the following the inner struts at are in line with the neck of the main bridge.

Oh, so it has a few powerful beams but a metric fuckton of torpedoes just like the Akira

She is 782 metres in length but her bulk is in the broad wingspan which protects the quad warp nacelles
She has two forward facing Pulsar cannons located under the forward wing alongside the neck corridor.
There are 10 forward facing torpedo launcher with alternating or simulateous fire. 4 additional launcher are situated at the rear.
Two forward ramming blades that pierced the opponents hull and release the klingon forces directly inside the enemy ship.

how many men does this monster carry, how many fighters/troop transports does it carry, what beams (disruptor) weapons does it have, and would this thing be able to take on a galaxy class without ramming it?

Found a TOS era Klingon Dreadnought called a D9

and a Romulan ship from the same era called a ThraiΒ pwimages-a.akamaihd.net/arc/50β¦

I like the roman ship more - simple clean lines

Have you tried making TOS designs. I feel that era is a little sparse when it comes to Ship variety, the only designs I can find from that era that weren't in the series are from the video games.Β

Thanks for the comment avenger and actually I have 2 designs going on at the moment. Β One from TMP and the other TNG.
I was just figuring out which one to finish off first.
The TMP one is a concept of a timeslip ship. Β The TNG is my version of a Tug.
Im guessing you would go for TMP.

Just to be clear, TMP stands for The Motion Picture era right?Β

beautiful design, they should make this into a toy at 8 inches in length, and use it in a new TNG movie. Great job!

That would be great to see it go from concept to creation

Something seems wrong with the perspective. How can the stern part of the farther nacelle be longer than the closer one?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes that was the tricky spot but I did a rough 3d version up to get the view right and copied the front nacelle and shrank it slightly so it will be close

Sorry got distracted by the perspective thingy, nice design overall.

Thanks very much. Β She had a few changes along the way but I think it looks ok

Do you have an underside view of this ship? I really like it.
π: 0 β©: 1
I have a very rough one but nothing finished. Β I did it up so I could work out nacelle and hull placement
