Inspired by a line in the song, "The Garden's Tale" by Volbeat.

"Angels Carry Her Home..."

Quality models and space bodies to boot. Am I correct in assuming that you're using 1024x1024 texture sets? They're definitely showing. :cool:

"Unknown starship, this is Commodore Deming of the USS Century. You have violated the core of the space of the United Federation of Planets. Identify yourself at once, or we will open fire."

"This is Captain Kathryn Janeway, of the Federation starship USS Voyager. Sorry to surprise you; next time we'll call ahead.

Year of Hell model? Adding a Century guest star to Endgame? Nice.

:D

I felt that it kind of made sense to have a really damaged model for when Voyager came home. This would be the original coming home, after 23 years in the Delta Quadrant. Repairs or not, there's no way in hell it could come home unscathed after all that time. Seemed to me that the Century-Class would be newly implemented around that time, so I figured, "Why not?" :)

It's Rick Knox/P-81's model. WileyCoyote re-textured it over on BC files. I know I saw the model itself over on A2 files. If you want it, you'll just need to rename the textures accordingly

USS Voyager + Best Of Both Worlds Borg Cube = Not a Chance in Hell

Before I get hated, I mean no offense to Voyager likers, I have to admit I'm one of them myself. I just felt doing something a tad silly like this :p

Nice pic. Nice models. Nice SFX. You are coming along nicely as a pic maker. If I could offer some small advice here.

- Balance the pic a little better. You have one very large item and two smaller ones. The holding beam effect should be a little more visible.

- I find shots where a particular ship fills the frame can be much more dramatic if the camera angle is off from the center and the ship in question is viewed from below or overhead.

- Try to place everything where it looks as if you've captured the one second of stillness in between the actions. Your ships should look as if they are just about to make a radical course change or fire all weapons at once. The picture should imply impending action without beating someone over the head with it.

The BOBW Cube is only about the bestest looking Borg ship ever. It looks nice as a background for Janeway's plucky little light cruiser. I am not a Voyager fan. Some times the show seems a little too far fetched to me. But Voyager has the best series intro music since TOS. It also has Neelix. I kinda like Neelix. Then again I like Gilligan's Island too. Neelix embraces his inner Gilligan with gusto and panache. No matter how hard I try, I just cannot find it in myself to dislike the little guy.

On balance, I like this pic and I'd like to see more like this. There are whole vistas(no pun intended) out there we've barely scratched the surface on. This one becomes part of my ST Screen Saver File(3.0GB and growing hourly!)

Didn't see that advice of yours till after I took this. Very helpful, I'll need to remember it for the future.

Back to the pic: the band Volbeat plays music that I interpret as seriously inspirational love-song rock. This pic tributes another verse in one of their songs

"Baby, I'm Blue...."

Don't think I got it down just right, but here's an attempt of using the advice.

"Now THAT'S a ship." Captain Ian Kremmler of the USS Ångström cannot help but feel envy as the USS Enterprise-D, commanded by Captain Daniel Negron, flies by the asteroid and nebulae fields they are currently surveying

Voila, it's done :D

And a new pic as well: The Federation Chintoka attack force, from my fan-fiction. The Enterprise-D and the Defiant lead the way

Hey, those are excellent pics! :thumbsup:

I see you're using the Aegian ... a pretty cool design, it's a shame that it's so weak and useless in stock. Aad's redesign is great, but the original configuration is an interesting ship as well, it's a fairly uncommon sight in screenshots!

wow, those are excellent shots, keep it up!

Maybe you could check your graphics card panel for an Anti aliasing option though.
While a2 hasnt this option, your panel might has it.

That's actually Dan1025's Aegian, with JF's re-texture from a while back.

Now I want the Aegian in more pics..... Time to start imagining....:sleep:

Got a new one: tribute to the end of Armada I

After discovering that history has been re-written once again by the Borg, Captain Denning orders the USS Premonition to set a course to the Deneb System; 11 years into the past, where a newly-commissioned USS Enterprise-D was just recovering from her encounter with the Q, and had only begun her legendary journey....
