[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] Here's one for all you experts at telling physical and CGI models apart. I was watching the DS9 seventh season opener, "Image in the Sand," the other day and noticed [URL=http://flareupload.pleh.net/uploads/646/image_trinculo_possible.jpg]this shot[/URL] of a [i]Galaxy[/i]-class ship docked at the station. Something about it (particularly the detailing of the panels on the ventral saucer and the way the light diffuses across it) suggested a physical model to me, although the other ships in the scene appear to be CGI. I'm uncertain, though. Anyway, I suddenly thought "If that [i]is[/i] a physical model, then it could be the [i]Trinculo[/i]!" and decided to float the idea here. We know they were still doing some physical shots during the seventh season (witness the [URL=http://flareupload.pleh.net/uploads/646/chrysalis_nash.jpg]new footage[/URL] of the [i]Nash[/i] a few episodes later in "Chrysalis") so it seemed possible. Of course, that could be a CGI shot of DS9 itself, in which case it wouldn't make any sense for the [i]Galaxy[/i] to be otherwise when all other elements were CGI. Thoughts? -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
