Hey guys,
I'm still working on the Nova, but my brain got this idea for a small vessel - specifically, a Cargo Ship. Though now that I look at it, its very similar to the Norway Class at the moment. I'll see what I can do to change that.
This probably won't take as long to complete as my other ships, but as always, critique is always welcome.
Thanks!

Did some more updates today to give you a better idea of how she's going to look.
I also added in a small work-bee bay to the aft section for general maintenance and cargo exchange.
I got the bottom mostly worked out tonight, but still have some editing to do.
The windows on the upper saucer section may be moved around a bit, but I have a general idea where they need to be, its a matter of tinkering with the position to get it "right" thats the trouble.
Length: 213m (Inc. Nacelles)
Length w/o Nacelles: 132m
Height: 21.75m (3.5m per deck)
Width: 91m
Crew: 65 Standard
125 Emergency
Cruising Speed: Warp 4.5
Max. Speed: Warp 7.0
I figure for a ship like this, these numbers aren't so bad. Let me know what you think.
Tonight I got more of the top view done, started work on the side view and updated the bottom view with the ramscoops and impulse engines.
The crew count can be fairly low too because I am assuming people have multiple jobs on the ship, unlike a federation exploration vessel.
Next up I need to add in some phasers, sensor plates and a shield grid...
