When I blow up this incredible image, I can't pan across it for some reason.

Yeah, a quirk in the image processing algorithm of DevArt. Maximize it and then right click - View image.

This is an excellent picture. The models look really good, and the viewpoint and lighting are wonderfully dramatic. I love it!

Now that's looking pretty. I've noticed that a lot of your renders favor a dramatic use of light and shadow that really lets the architecture in the ships and stations stand out beyond the surface detail. I like when that happens. I think there was a great, thought-out elegance to the old 60s designs that's lacking from the 90s Trek designs which rely far too much on over-produced surface detail. This is clean, clear, and just immediately calls to mind space age wonder.

Thank you for the kind words. I once heard that you have these shadows in space, because the light is not modified by the atmosphere

I love these "from above" views.
Maybe it's because this was never an angle used on the TV shows, but it is such an interesting view.
Great work as always!

JJ Adams? Wasn't he the captain of the C-57D?

Wow. Great angle. I love these K Stations, and Constitution-class is my favourite class. Well played.

You should just put out your own calendar. Your stuff is great and I think people would buy it... I'd buy one.

I have one (wrote a novel, have to publish it one day), but it features no starships. Has some crazy-ass tech, though...
