[/qb][/QUOTE]It'd be simpler just to take measurements and build a stand alone CG model than any of that 3D scanning business, but the original models would certainly still make very useful reference material. I know the TOS Remastered crew have mentioned doing a TNG update, but I can't see it happening. At least not for a long time. Apart from the fact that they probably wouldn't get funding, I don't think a lot of fans would like it. The fan reaction to TOS:R has been quite mixed even among people who approve of the idea. In some cases the new effects have actually looked worse than the originals, or haven't lived up to the standards we expect in today's effects shots. And that was when they were just updating simple optical effects and models that had little detail. The potential to fuck up with TNG is greatly increased because everything in TNG is already at a fairly high standard. The models are highly detailed, so the team would eat up valuable time in making their replicas, which wouldn't give much leeway for the one thing that's actually worth updating TNG for, the choreography of the ships. The best chance you have of seeing anything resembling remastered TNG effects is if the fans do it, like with that Wolf 359 project. [/QB][/QUOTE]
