[QUOTE]Originally posted by mrneutron: [QB] I don't agree that the 4-foot Galaxy Enterprise-D model has better proportions than the 6-footer. I like the 6-footer better. I don't believe that to make an object look large it has to be thick and chunky. As to the debate over the surface detailing on the two models, I'll grant that the 4-foot model, with all its raised surface detailing, was no doubt easier to light and get detail on. I think the 6-footer would have looked spectacular if lit correctly (as it did in a few rare shots), but given the time constraints of grinding out the effects out for the show, this wasn't done. One other thing, I've read and heard that the ILM guys didn't like the Galaxy Class model, and I suspect when they shot a lot of what became the early stock library for the show for the pilot they didn't lavish much attention on good lighting (lord knows the lighting SUCKED on a lot of those shots). Now I'm curious about the proportions of the 22" D that ILM built for the pilot. Hmmm... [/QB][/QUOTE]
