One of the few of the modern starship designs I really liked. The art work is quite good even though how it is done still alludes me. The discussion seems to focus on the deflector pod at the bridge of the pylons. With the opinion tending toward moving it to the dorsal position. Though this seems to me to overlook one of the designs basic features. The Bussard collectors seem to be set only on the dorsal part of the ship. If you place the deflector pod in the same dorsal position it would project the field right into the stream of the incoming interstellar gas molecules. In effect pushing them aside. It would therefore seem that placing the deflector pod in the ventral position, as the designers original concept did, makes more engineering sense. One other question. The "model" which everyone talks about, and which is quite confusing to me, seems to be what artists use to create various depictions of the ship. For all I know it is anything from a mathematical formula to a five view orthigraphic projection, to a three dimension model. So I ask you to please forgive my interpretational ignorance of this kind of art. One thing which does intrigue me is the number of escape pods. Your image depicts a total of thirty-eight pods on the dorsal view. I wondered if you know from the model if there are any located on the ventral view?

P.S: The link to the Marc Bell up to date Steamrunner seems to lead to another location. Something called dropbox.
