However, it's a rebuild of an old one. I never like the way my USS Triumph came out, and I've been staring at it for years wanting to fix. So she finally went into the yards for a major upgrade.

Here's the way I built her 20-odd years ago (what?! 20!?) :
Yeah, I hate the dorsal and the lollipop deflector.

So here's the new upgraded USS Triumph:

Very nice! I like how you blended the hulls together more and opted to not re-use a neck as the dorsal warp pylon plus all the other touches you added. :techman:
 
The secondary hull looks a better fit to the more beefy dreadnought saucer.

Others—like the most recent Bonaventure (NCC-1000)—it just doesn’t fit quite as well as here.

I thought about splicing the missile battery semi-circle of a Trade Federation tank underneath this:


But with it made a bit like Enterprise G from PICARD.

I’ve seen lots of Trade Federation tanks as starship parts-only there is a wider selection to draw from now.

Guess that rebuild is quite the triumph.. :p

In all seriousness, really well done, looks far better this way. :mallory::techman:
