My other digital doodle from last night - the Big E on escort duty again. A few notes here. First, this is using my new hi res textures for Aggi's Enterprise. Second, I've used BOTH the Richmerk and Prologic freighters here. I did it for fun.... and because I didn't find either to be 100% accurate to what was shown on Remastered. But I'm fine with that. The federation's a big place and the design spec for a given utility vessel could vary over time and depending on what dock its built. I think it's kinda neat to have that variety to play with.

Beyond that it's the usual suspects: DS3 and Photoshop... plus magic pixie dust.

Oh. Wait. That was just regular dust.

"because I didn't find either to be 100% accurate to what was shown on Remastered"

To be fair, one of them predates the remastered effects entirely.. was originally based on the cargo drone from the animated series, from which the inspiration for the remastered version was drawn;)

Ah! OK. Yeah, I actually did compare an to those animated cargo drones yet. But like I said, I think they're both nice models and the variety lends a certain air of authenticity.

ay.... that new texture looks great on her (or is "Starship" a him?). And from the whole amazing composition I like the unusual angle of this planet's ring the most!
This is giving some great move into a rather quiet scene.
Cool shot, again :)

Oh, it's most definitely a "her", what with all those sexy curves and stuff :D Glad you like the composition. Yeah, sometimes tilting a planet's rings up, like that, just lends a whole new sense to the scene.

Whaddaya mean "not accurate'?!? :angered:

Just kidding. :)

Awesome scene. But seriously, I did try to make mine accurate. Can you think of anything specific that seems inaccurate to you? Now that I have a few more models under my belt, I have been planning on redoing my freighter.

I'd have to jump in and study the reference again. If I get some time, I'll make some notes for ya.... :D But seriously, it's cool that they're different!

Thats what I like to think every time I hear the canon police say "that's not right", Same design different builders, or variants depending on the age or date built.
