I couldn't resist playing with the composition,..

BoP Take 2

hmmm, could that be a Borg beam hitting the BoP?

Cheers!

Written Words cannot do this latest digital poster justice.

Sweet Mercyful CRAP.

Totally awesome! Or as Narf would say, "Shiney!!"

David, just a little something, (not wanting to nitpick etc but I'll do it anyways )

I know you might just have added the beam later on, but the ship that's being hit should at least be thrown a bit out of course (say tilted and slower) now it's still nice in formation despite getting hit. just a little item to think about for the next one you make.

I suck at both modelling AND textures, but I'm good at placing the two together and making things fit

[nitpick]Also you missed off the SEIV Gold logo [/nitpick]

Lol, Other than that, You've done another incredible piece of art. The backgrounds for these are incredible and give the ships a realistic feel

Boran, I did actually 'ungroup' the pieces in the model and then had them slightly disperse in one render.. Sadly with even the slightest dispersal it failed to look like a BoP anymore. So I opted to manually chop off one of the wings instead. So this latest image has a bit of post-production done on the render.

Note two: I didn't 'forget' the se4:Gold logo, I chose not to add it. There is a difference.

All in all I think it turned out well. I will do better with my next render, it's the natural order of things,.. you know what they say, practice makes perfect. (Only I would change the word 'perfect' in the old phrase to 'better'.)

Cheers!

P.S. I don't strive for prefection, that is a lost cause persued by fools.. I just want to gobsmack people and have their jaws bounce a few times off the floor or keyboard.

I was curious about that, Will these be used as the opening intro image for the star trek mod? It's a shame you can't have randomised intro screens, then you could use both
