Here we have the Sparrowhawk Class Attack Cruisers Phoenix(red) and Vengeance(Blue/Black), leaving orbit from the Imperial Dominion Homeworld of Relanne. Who knows where their adventures will take these mighty ships as they embark on a mission of exploration and protection. These ships truly are fine representatives of the Imperial Dominion Star Fleet.

Well back to basics for me. I have been working on this model for a bit. Due to a hardware crash last spring, I lost the original models for the Sparrows and Sparrowhawks. This is a complete remodel from scratch. I think they came out much better than the previous version. I hope you like it.

Oh yeh, I also have posted the starfield and planet background in a separate post. It came out so good I though folks might like it as a wallpaper.

Sorry I was offline for some time.. Ys as long as credit is given.

it's kind've weird as the angle suggests that the ships are going by the planet, not leaving from it. That can be easily rationalized as them leaving a shipyard in orbit..

~sparrownightmare May 16, 2009

Well, normally they do 2 orbits before leaving, to get a navigational fix and test critical systems before breaking orbit. lol

You asked... LOL

thanks for the details, i don't have a problem with detailed stuff like that being a sf fan

why don't they use orbital shipyards and whatnot. oh they test the system in orbit to avoid damage to the planet right (the energies involved can fuck a planet up in many sf unis, see the base delta zero in star wars)

The ships can land easily on any spot on a planet big enough to support them. Anti Gravity control is a great thing.

They test systems like Life Support etc in orbit to make sure they don't suffocate on the way to their destination. The drive systems don't put out a lot of dangerous emissions normally.
