I like that filter you have used on them - is that just a simple blur or soften? What filter is that - it makes the ships seem more realistic - not so artificially crisp like a lot of CGI is.
Good work.
Which program did you use?
Happy posting!

I've seen the Federation ship and the first Rommie ship before on other boards and like them both alot.
I dig the details like the three green lights on the bottom of the Rommie ships's hull. They look to be surrouding a drop bay or something of the sort.
Nice work. I really like the Starfleet ship alot.

thanks for the kind replies
yeah that drop bay is the shuttle hangar
the programs i used are povray for rendering, moray for modelling and paint shop pro (with a set of image alterations like noise, color adjustment, blurring...) for post processing.

that Fed ship resembles one of the Excelsior study models a bit..

Wow!! Very nice work.

Great stuff, but: in the future, please keep the in-line images limited to just one or two per page, out of pity for those of us with skinny info-pipes.

Spiffikeen! The Fed ship is a nice small design for TNG era, but the registry needs to be updated for the time period. Just add a "70" to the registry's start. The rommie works for TMP, TNG and DS9. Any idea as to ship lengths-rommie in particular.

Wow, they look so good... any chance you can convert them into Armada 2 ships?
Posted by Aldiwahn Teerodi (Member # 931) on :
1. i won't update the registry of the fed ship since for me it's an older one from the movie era.
2. the dimensons of the rommy are: - Length: 182,4 m - Beam: 168,8 m - Draft: 30,5 m
as for armada 2 mods, i don't have the skills to do that. but if anyone would like, i can give 5 view images and more.

Sooooo....it's a refitted ship that's been enhanced with phaser strips and Galaxy escape pods?
Posted by Aldiwahn Teerodi (Member # 931) on :
