[QUOTE]Originally posted by Johnny: [QB] Docterman's version is quite good, there are some truly great parts, but to be honest, I've seen better work from less prestigious modellers who've spent far less time and effort than he apparently has. Maybe it was just all the hype that spoilt it(Trekmovie had several articles gushing over it). The elements I did like were the slight transparency of the planet killer and the way that this guy really wasn't scared to have the camera go right up close to the models. In one of the flybys when the 1701 looms right over the camera it looks fantastic. I wasn't so impressed by the Constellation, though. The glowing effects made it look less dead. [QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [qb] Question: I remember reading on here or elsewhere a while back, that the model used for the constellation in the 60's was an AMT model - and that model wasn't a faithful reproduction of the NCC-1701. Someone went as far as to create blueprints of the differences... or was this the Franz Josef Enterprise - or did he base HIS blueprints of the AMT model? ANYWAY - have they copied the design of the NCC-1701 for the remastered Constellation - or have they faithfully reproduced the AMT model? Can anyone tell? What are the tell-tale signs?? Andrew [/qb][/QUOTE]The original Doomsday episode did use an AMT model, that's why the registry numbers were just rearranged. I don't know exactly what the differences are, but obviously there must be many between a 14" plastic kit and a fullscale effects model. AFAIK, the CBS version uses the regular Enterprise model they've been using all along, only with battle damage and retexturing. They wouldn't have built a new model to look like the 1960s kit.
