The Warbird of the D'deridex class is a huge ship used by the Romulans in the 2360s and 2370s. With 1200 meter the ship is almost twice as long as a Federation Galaxy class. It also has an advantage in fire power, but because of it's big size it has a lower maximum speed. Another advantage of this class is it's cloaking device. Only drawback is that a Warbird can't fire it's weapons while cloaked. When cloaked it doesn't affect gravimetric field signatures as usual but does emit a low-level tetryons in the lower subspace bands as well as temporal displacement waves which can affect delta-series radio-isotopes. This is caused by a quantum singularity, which is used instead of the usual matter-antimatter reaction as a power source for it's warp-drive.

I'm current working on the Scimitar, then I think the Valdore to finish the TNG Romulan battle ship series.

All perspective/angles are good, I can't complain :) and I like cloaking before attack.

what would the cloak animation be used for and it could be a little bigger aside from that looks great

You've got ghost pixels in the NW direction.

TM first made it bigger but there were some problems with that, so that's why it's a bit smaller

Krayzeenbk, I don't find any ghost pixels. In which animation sequence did you find them?

Random Observer, the cloak animation is used for the fortify animation. Sometimes the ship cloaks during defend operations.
