Vektor, I must applaud you on your redesign of the Enterprise. There are a few minor elements I personally do not like, but that's just a matter of taste. What you've done with this design is nothing short of amazing.
I have been inspired by this model where my own ingame models are concerned. I've been looking for a way to make the ships look more realistic, more modern, and you've helped me with that.
I'm also intrigued by Mental Ray. I've never used it before, but then again, no one in the modding world has ever used mental ray to my knowledge. I intend to learn it now, seeing the awesome effects that result from it.
Kudos to you sir!
