Ahhhh... the good ole "Big E". What a wonderful ship. Great job with it. Only thing that I could feel to improve this would be putting a farther out ring of ships to give her taskforce a bigger feel. Other than that, great job. And with a CAP too.

I watched a Star Trek eppisode last night (ok corral)... was hoping you posted a trekie upload... maybe next time - hope, I hope, I hope... this is good, but it's almost the flip side of star trek... star trek was into peace... these boats kill - I hope you know what I mean, cool render though.

Thanks for the comments mikeerson. Actually Gene Rodenberry flew B-17's in WWII and much of the set design, color Palette and ship designs of Star Trek came out of his experiences. No sane person likes war, and also warriors should not have to be put in extra danger by some selfish politicians desire for power.
