My first ship of any appreciable worth: The Karas Tlen-class Runabout.

[Ithirahad]

It's small and it sports a part of flimsy Isanth Industries antiproton cannons, but it does look pretty cool.

(Inspired by the Vulcan D'kyr-class)

Front:

Rear, showing small shuttle/repair bee (Also why we should have ice crystal wedges):

...It also looks really cool when it's spinning around at warp speeds, but of course I can't screenshot that.

i like the outer ring and also the engines, also, if you connect all those engines, even if it is inside the ring, you should have more thrust/acceleration and gernal speed

 

[Ithirahad]

I actually DID connect them at one point but it ended up looking really bad... So I just left it as it was. It\'s the tiniest bit clumsy, but the general lightness of the ship mostly makes up for the engine inefficiency.

Well, lights ain\'t gonna helpe to move and avoid that hostile fire :D

LIGHTNESS. As in lack of mass. Not as in pwetty glowy icy crystals of glowyness.
