It's not often we get to see something like this. Thanks to the generosity of a StarshipBuilder member, we are able to present what could be the ultimate modeling references for the Motion Picture Enterprise.
Sure, you've all seen photos of the studio model. Images have been widely available on the Web for some time now. Recently the model itself went up for auction and many great new photos were taken.
Such photos are no doubt an invaluable reference for modelers. But what about orthographic plan view photos and/or renderings to assist the scratchbuilder? What about detailed images that can serve as an overall paint guide or texture map? Well, you won't have to wait any longer for just that!
The first batch of some incredible new references for the TMP Enterprise have just been posted at http://www.StarshipBuilder.com in the Forums/Reference Desk/Star Trek section. It is my understanding that these were generated directly off the CG model built for the Director's Edition of Star Trek: The Motion Picture!
It is a rare opportunity to get actual data from the real studio miniature. [Unable to attach sample image due to size limits!] Please note these images are reserved for registered members only. Registration is completely FREE and without obligation.
Coming soon: More great references from this model including Aztec templates!
