...looking good

looks better. i would still add the lower Pods and a slightly larger tower.

just as the deadalus looks like a cross between a Tank and an Aircraft Carrier, the Prometheus looks like a submarine to me. the aft tower really helped with that.

i liked the aft tower, the two super engines and the two arms however were never liked by me

reminds me of my old frigate design, I wanted it to be a real mix between 303 and 304...unfortunatly it got put on one side when the hermes came along.

Spoiler:

My only worry with the lower pods was access to them interanlly.... getting around the Power core..... but i've just thought of something....if my idea works, i might add Four F-302s to the ship, and switch the 2-jumper bay somewhere else on the ship... maybe under the nose...*thinks*

I always liked the idea of the two main thrusters.... but i'd have liked to have seen the Daedalus thrusters in their place.

i like the pods.

those should be on the Prometheus Mark II design

[immhotep]

The Tempest is the best source for ideas on a Prommie mark II.

[Dr Lee]

sorry... dumb moment here... Tempest? Is that one of RJB's ships?

[puddlejumperOZ]

The Prommie looks promising, pardon the pun

[thekillman]

yes the Tempest is RJB's (or i believe). from the same guy that brought Excalibur.

Yes that would be mine.

I know which ship you mean, got a fair few of the renders saved for hints at GOOD Greebles.... i'm just crud at remembering names

UPDATE!

Changed the main structure a bit more (Adding the extruding bits to start cluttering up the faces),
moved the Missile tubes back to the nose,
added some extra pods.

The idea behind them is to allow the Prommie MkII to carry 4 F-302s, with two in each of the two Through hanger. The bits under the lower hangers will eventually become the rear landing struts.

I spy some Daedalus, Destiny, Prometheus, and BSG double door hanger

Deadalus and (Obviously) Prometheus are intended...other two are not...may change the main structure again to lose the Destiny hints, BSG...the through hanger idea means that both Fighters can leave in opposite directions if needed

Jolly good

Thanks mate
