Neat design. I just always though the Tholians had yellow webbing though. Seems like blue is the new beige.

I don't care how long you've been playing. I only care about how you play.

in fact, if you look slightly before the lowest blue beam in the upper-right corner, you can see sections of a triangluar web

Season 6 will have some Single Player stuff after all?

Those ships look awesome, nice way to re-envision them.

Nice and insect like, like the Tholians in Enterprise.
If your post is anything like, "I have a sandwich so you can't be starving" it's time to rethink posting.

I think it's an interesting mix of pretty and terrifying.

Oh Hai!

This just became my new desktop. It actually beat ESD for that honor.
... Thanks Tholians.

I am exploring strange new worlds and seeking out new civilizations in a galaxy far, far away...

I have to say although the model looks nice.. it doesn't feel Tholian. This is due to the coloration of the hull. It feels too feddy with it being blue. Granted in the series where they have appeared we have only seen the webbing interceptors. However their hulls were beige/sandstone colored. As matter of principle, due to racial designs, material availability and environmental/atmospheric concerns, all races have kept the same material/color consistancy. Klingon ships have been primarily green, starfleet silver/white, romulan/reman another shade of green, lyren purple, etc. Tholians have been beige/sandstone and i think they need to stick with that color/material combination not some federation/caitian looking shiny blue.

they were beige/sandstone colored in TOS, yes, but in Enterprise, their color was similiar to the one you see now.

and personally, this color looks better than the TOS one, though that one wasn't terrible either
