Beautiful woman

Jun 16

Doug Drexler and Daren Dochterman recently posted beauty shots of their excellent Enterprise models on their blogs, so while scenes from Act I are in the render farm hopper I thought I’d provide you guys an embiggened peek at the Gray Lady from what I felt were some of the more successful clips in the teaser. First up is my favorite of the “red planet of the week” shots from the opening credits…

She *is* a beautiful lady...

Our hero Captain Kirk may have been trying to short out the space babe robots in “I, Mudd” when he exclaimed that the Enterprise “is a beautiful lady and we all love her!”, but darn it… she is, and we do!

Only one scene to go: the viewscreen contents behind Kirk as he walks in front of it. (The rotoscoping was done years ago… literally years ago.)
