AFIK, the 6 foot model was spruced up and repainted. A CGI was made accordingly for SFX shots that needed it and a 12 foot saucer model was made for the crash sequence.TPTB=The powers that be...meaning the producers and the people at Paramount. The Venture from DS9 was the 4 foot model with all the extra stuff taken off from AGT, except the phaser strips in the nacelles. A slightly different CGI was made that had a blackened upper spine but was only used in one episode. The majority of the Galaxys on DS9 was of the original CGI made for Generations. ------------------ [Bart's looking for his dog.] Groundskeeper Willy: Yeah, I bought your mutt - and I 'ate 'im!

Mostly the paint job. They painted it a deeper bluish aztec pattern, and redecaled everything - for example, all the escape pod hatches had numbers on them, where before they weren't detailed at all.
