I love how ''stubby'' looking the ENT-C looks in that cut-away poster!
2ft E-D model

Mentioned before. It´s the one Gabe Koerner built for the Enterprise finale.

Yeah, that's definitely a CG model. But whose? Whose?
Oh, I didn't realize. Hm. Bad lighting for it. Then again, I was never completely enamored with that model.
Oh, sweet memories! I had that very same poster hanging over my desk when I was a child. I'm pretty sure it's still at my parent's home. It was huge.
I was never lucky enough to have that one, or the one of the refit Enterprise, but I did get the Enterprise-E and Voyager ones. They still hang in frames on my parents' wall.

Sorry for the crap image but that's what I found on Google images. Mine's framed. This poster is about 4 ft across. Been on a wall for about 17 years now....
I have the same one too. I can't wait to get it out of storage when I get back home. Assuming my wife lets me put it up of course...
I remember watching either on trekkies or on an extra somewhere .... they went thru a warehouse and were talking with a lady whos job it was to keep every model and prop etc catalogued ... and she spoke of the 4 footer being hung in a restaraunt and she also pointed out that the letters were wrong on the model it said 1701-E instead of 1701-D which they edited on film to make it look correct for the show

My friend has this exact poster hanging up in his shop ... and for years I have wanted it but he will never give it up because he is a memorabilia collector ... he has Picard's dress uniform from Insurrection from the dinner scene before they are called to go after Data. ... he even has (get this) the TRAINCAR ... the actual TRAIN CAR from the first X-Men movie too .. the train car from the scenes where wolverine goes to get rogue off the train and magneto attacks him. That's in his front yard ...
I've the cut-away poster too. I love that thing. The one I have is quite battered. I want to get a new one (well a "used" one off EBay, likely) but it has to be the GIANT version of it with the LCARS panel-look and not the smaller sized one or the one without the LCARS stuff and callouts.

Okay, here is the answer...
It is the 1701-D, from this shot, in "Ensigns of Command".
What's your reference on that? Nobody I ever spoke with at the series ever mentioned a CG ENT prior to a long shot version seen for a few seconds in season 7's MASKS episode. There are various ships on TNG that LOOK very CG because they didn't shoot them with any blur, so they have that crude early CG look.
I would've figured it as a bad painting or still cutout, myself. The 2 ft model looks much better, as long as it isn't moving.
Nope, they didn't.
Here you go (I know, this is poor quality as well, but it's larger).

I have the same picture, hanging in my office.

Umm ... there isn't a source for that there. In fact, it notes it needs a source. Somebody want to call drexler?
No, the letter E was put on the D-model after TNG ended (after Generations?), as a proposal to use the 6-foot model in subsequent movies as the 1701-E. In other words, the effects staff wanted the 1701-E to be another Galaxy class, and represent it by detailing-up the old 6-foot model. The model was never filmed for a production with the letter E on it.
The model in Booby Trap is the AMT kit.
And by all means, ask Sternbach, Okuda, Drexler, anyone you want. I stand by my facts.

I thought it was either a joke, or else they assumed the new Enterprise would be another Galaxy class ship, just as the Enterprise-A was a like-for-like replacement for the original.
Is it just the main number that was changed, or were the rest done too?

For once I have to agree with you, if this were CG we would have heard long ago about it.
