[QUOTE]Originally posted by mrneutron: [QB] Regarding the surface detailing on the 1701-D: I understand completely about wanting details that look right and give the object scale. My objection to the 4-foot miniature is that the surface detailing (to my eye) actually diminishes the ship's size. A big problem with the 6-foot miniture was that in the first few seasons of the shows the effects people never lit it very well, so it rarely looked very good. I do recall a few shots where they got some interesting lighting that caused all the aztec paneling to pop out as the saucer slid by the camera, and I always felt THAT look made the ship look bigger than the raised detailing even did. Sadly, I only recall a few shots where they lit it like this. One other thing about the 4-foot model, it always looked chunkier and less graceful to me than the 6-footer. I don't think the proportions are the same. It looks like the ship needs some Ultra-Slim-Fast antimatter. [/QB][/QUOTE]
