This is an excellent picture. The models look really good, and the viewpoint and lighting are wonderfully dramatic. I love it!

Thank you very much!

Now that's looking pretty. I've noticed that a lot of your renders favor a dramatic use of light and shadow that really lets the architecture in the ships and stations stand out beyond the surface detail. I like when that happens. I think there was a great, thought-out elegance to the old 60s designs that's lacking from the 90s Trek designs which rely far too much on over-produced surface detail. This is clean, clear, and just immediately calls to mind space age wonder.

Thank you for the kind words. I once heard that you have these shadows in space, because the light is not modified by the atmosphere

I love these "from above" views.
Maybe it's because this was never an angle used on the TV shows, but it is such an interesting view.
Great work as always!
