Just watched "Way of the warrior" again. There is a scene in which the Defiant passes through a Wolf359 type graveyard scene, this time with cardassian ships.I was wondering, these shipwrecks looked green! Your thoughts on this? What might be the ships' classes? Anyone got any good screencaps of that episode? ------------------ Kryten: Pub? - Ah yes.

Well, there is this: http://w1.314.telia.com/~u31412331/old1/wreckcard.jpg Which was also seen in Voyager:Caretaker: http://w1.314.telia.com/~u31412331/old1/wreckdelta.jpg http://w1.314.telia.com/~u31412331/old1/wreckdelta1.jpg Nothing identifiable I think... ------------------ "The Starships of the Federation are the physical, tangible manifestations of Humanity�s stubborn insistence that life does indeed mean something."

I thought that 'bubbley' looking thing on the right - mid to top was the Ferengi pod... but maybe not?If the wreckage was Green... maybe it was Cardassian as WELL as destroyed Klingon vessels?

Thanx for the pics. What really interests me is this: presumably this was done before they started using CGI on DS9. If that is the case then they must have used models to film the scene. Has anyone heard some official source talk about the scene in question? ------------------ Kryten: Pub? - Ah yes.

I don't think it was models because correct me if I'm wrong but all those Klingon ships at the big battle at DS9 were mostly CGI? It would take along time to film all those models and piece them together. But perhaps I'm wrong and they did take their time with it. ------------------ Signature for sale!

Partial CGI began on DS9 with The Search but it didn't become exclusively CGI (with the exception of stock footage) until about Call to Arms.The actual exploding K'tingas in WotW are physical ERTL models, IIRC, but I think there was a hefty CGI component, too... ------------------ "Ring a bell, and I'll salivate... well how'd you like that?

I think some of the ships that were blown up in TWOTW were also Hallmark Christmas Ornaments...Also, the wreckage scene would have been made for Voyager's (Caretaker) not for the TWOTW footage - that would have been just stock footage...
