I was distracted again and came up with a design for RDM based on a B5 design for the Excalibur. still a WIP and principally designed for that setting but I used TOS flightpods (the same ones I used on my other carrier design).
I think that, once I'm happy with the RDM design, I may just take off the railguns and change the front and engine blocks and see where I get to.
These are the RDM's:
The first didn't have connecting rings, the second does.
I then had feed back suggesting adding in flightpods:
Of course I was doing this quickly and using standard models. The fins are far too narrow (not bothered about the rings so much). Of course the guys over at wolf's are a blood thirsty lot and someone wanted it with the pods realligned and with extra engines - a fast carrier in other words. This is the situation as of last night. I also wondered what it woould look like with inverted connecting fins - not brilliant as it turns out but I wanted to see anyhow:
