Saw that when he originally posted them at Scifi-Meshes. Not completely accurate, but still damn impressive! If you want to see some pics of all the models, go to his Photobucket site here: http://s97.photobucket.com/albums/l226/coxxon/

Yeah, it's actually in the show, too. Almost wierd that they'd include an obvously military ship and not make mention of it. I think someone said that it was actually a fannish design that the effects guys dropped in, though?

Maybe it's a FORMER frigate, converted for civilian use. We've never gotten a close look at it, so we wouldn't know for sure about its gun turrets, etc. If the writers were actually paying attention to these sorts of things on the VFX side, it'd be instant inspiration for an episode or story arc concerning the fleet trying to refit the old girl.
