Unfortunately, I missed "Relativity" twice, so I never got to see this ship onscreen.

The Relativity, to me, is a design that either looks really good in a picture, or really bad. In most screenshots that I've seen, it looks really bad. These schematics, however, make it look really good. Good work, Vorlon.

OK, I have to ask, is that 'beauty shot' fan made? Is it 'semi-official' say done by the effects guys on Voyager but printed in a magazine?

Also, you can't really rely on the vid caps - the colours/quality/tv picture - seem off... the gamma correction is quite off in those vid caps too...

that is a beautiful picture though.

NEGH'VAR! That is what it reminds me of!

Am I the only one who think that the Relativity is ugly? I mean, it looks like a Mallard that got run over by a Mac truck. And then beaten to death by schoolchildren. It's not appealing at all.

Well, I wouldn't go that far. But it is ugly.

*points out the heretofore unmentioned similarities between the Insurrection scoutship and the Relativity.*

The above post was mulled-over, composed, and posted during time Tom would have better spent on his plethora of homework and homework-related exercises. Now don't you feel special?

notice that CGI - original ships have a LOT of curves... they can never just make them look as REAL as the models were. CGI - from original real-life models work though... CGI from scratch... not as good... or as realistic.

I think what bothers me the most about it are the little spikey things hanging off the back of it. Me no like...
