Wow that is awesome!

You saw the reworked official version? I rather liked the small spikes, and the hints of machinery in-between the plates in the hull.

I'm not exactly sure what you're referring to. The CBS Digital TOS remastered?

This is so well done I really have to applaud you on it! I can really tell you put some time into nailing down the lighting to really make the planet convincing, all around amazing job.

This really is an awesome model and those composite shots are even more so!

The surface detail on the planet is beautiful, craters and such. Very well done.

Outstanding, DB! When I saw the first image in post #1, I thought for a moment that you were doing a model of the destroyed Klingon planet Praxis from Star Trek VI. Regardless, this is incredible!

Here is an ALMOST finished version of the shot. The planet part is complete, though. This is the miniature with CG enhancements on top.

Amazing!

Wow, this is technically impressive and visually stunning!

 

[Duncanator]

The planet composite looks great!
I actually like your earlier version better with less CG dust and lava. They start to make the model look CG.

 

[joberg]

Fantastic job...and yes, less is more as they say: your first version was more life-like

This popped up in the thumbnails on the home page. What an inspiring project! Is there anywhere we can see the finished shots/film?
