hahah... If I had some constructive crits, I'd give them! don't worry...

I just have no knowledge of DS9 to this extent... so it all looks good to me!

Sheesh- you cannot make this accurate at all since you are using polygons and CGI. In order to do it right, you gotta do it PHYSICALLY, by hand, in three sizes with conflicting details. Geez, and you call yourself fans?

You know I was thinking of this the other day, I was going to start a thread (and an Argument I'm sure) about what "Canon" is.
In actuality, there is no such thing as Canon in reference to replication of something. This is impossible to do a 100% reproduction of anything. There will always, always, always be something different from what you are trying to replicate, even if there is a bolt out of place or you missed a bevel or a minor detail.
"Canon" in itself implies a 100% replica, anything less is not. if you tell me 'well' you can miss a few details and it is still considered exact, . . well who gets to judge how much detail you can miss before your replica falls from 100%?
The only way to replicate an object is to clone it, and even then it's not exact, this of course is dealing with the Physical. In CG your chances of 100% is way way way off. The only way to come close to "Canon" in CG is to copy paste or, have exact Blue Prints detailing everything down to a single point location in 3D space or . . . be the person who built the object in the first place.
Sketches from the internet, screen caps from the movie, pictures from my grandmothers wall safe . . . these things are not going to get you a 100% replication . . . ever.

GP, I thought you were going to get a rapid prototype model of this when you were done??? Then you would have a physical model!

Well, this one is not entirely bad.

Born to be Wilde. And to be the slowest modeller in this galaxy.

*sigh* GP, evil laughs are ALWAYS "Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!" You NEED exclamation points, and it must be one long word.

The previous comment was an attempt at humor and should be taken as such. No offense or harm was intended towards GP or his excellent (if innaccurate j/k) work.

Don't forget the apparent lack of cowbell.
