might want to bump up the rez on the "Enterprise" text. in the full view, it's looking a bit rasterized.

Great stuff, but it wasn't built on earth, but in orbit ....

I beg to differ it was built in San Francisco naval fleet shipyards. [link]

Well, well, well! I have always seen cannon material state that she was built in ship yards in orbit above San Francisco. I stand corrected, by the new movie, anyway. Thanks for the link, it was great! Spock out.

Now, I know this is in the trailer, but I got to thinking. If Archer's ship had to be built in orbit, then what is the reason this, being much larger, is not?

I like this variation. looks more realistic then the series model. They should have used this in the 'Enterprise' episodes "In a Mirror Darkly". instead they just had an exact replica of the old series 1701.
Very lovely scene and great model amigo.

OMG, this is beautiful!

An idea: ever tried to put textures to the windows? It's a major pain in the butt but once it's done, it looks pretty nifty. I have done it with the 1701 refit and the Excelsior...

Yeah on the modo version there are all new textures, this is the lightwave version, its very high poly.

Very nice render BTW.

Polytranz then Modo301 for mapping cleanup.

Every good stuff is in Lightwave. It's not fair I tried it out once on my father's PC and LW owned me to say the least...
