The DDF has been a particular favorite of mine, ever since it first appeared in Captains Log. I did a mini kit-bash of her a few years ago.

Nicely done, and a 20+ year mystery on where the shuttlebay on the lollipop ships really is is now solved.

I actually had to design the INSIDE of the few decks there to make sense of it (just sketches, not a full blueprint yet). It's a cramped fit, but it's also a small shuttle-bay, so it works. I disagree with Steve that these things should HAVE shuttlebays, since they're small ships already, but he was insistant...

Well, 25 years of game-history would tend to make one insistent. They stopped being the original FJS design the minute they had to "work" in a game context.

One niggle I'll point out on the Prometheus Strike Cruiser drawing: The CS-class ships do not have the "gunhouse" on the neck like a BC. Externally, they are just a CA saucer with a truncated CA aft-hull and the engines mounted flat. When viewed from above, the CS has rectangular struts, as-opposed to the wedge-shaped ones of the BC.

That Kennedy class FBC is so cool!
