Congrats FM, I love your re-enactment! It would be cool to see a "fleet" of Defiant class ships engaging a cube as it was originally intended of her design. Dozens of Defiant ships firing pulse phasers and quantum torps at a hapless cube - LOL!

Good Job man, I look forward to seeing the finished product.
 
Does anyone know if we'll be able to read the feedback and scoring from the judges?

I think you're describing Dac's excellent entry.
 
^Heh, yeah that sounds like mine. Wish I'd added more than one Defiant though....

Congrats Fuzzy, and Welcome to the pack! :P I was wondering what was going on with this calendar and its weird they're still notifying people. So thats 4 folks I now know of who've won (including me). Its great to finally see all that hard work you've put into your Enterprise pay off.

Thanks Dac! Rock, paper scissors for the cover? ;)

[edit] Or would you rather be the centerfold?

In all Honesty, I'd rather my birth month, April. I think my composition is too wide for the cover, so It'll be the centerfold if anything.

Now that you mention it, mine is also probably too wide for the cover as well. Centerfold would be pretty wicked, just to be able to say that you were the "centerfold" :D

Congrads bro!

Congrats to a fine artist!

Thanks :D Apparently the long delay in notification may have been due to some back and forth communication with Star Trek Online, who has first dibs on my design, and recently used it as inspiration for their new line of command cruisers (per Ian Richards.) They may have had to sign off on it's use in the calendar.

[edit] Did you get contacted about your image title Dac? I'm getting the feeling that things are in motion and we'll be seeing all the winners soon.

^No, I haven't had any contact with them since I sent them the signed documents.

They probably didn't need to contact you then. I had to change the title of mine, as they couldn't publish the quote "A tall ship and a star to steer her by". I changed it to "Charting the Cygnus Loop."

Point being, I think they are about ready to hit the paper.

What was your title?
 
. . .I never submitted a title. Who are you in contact with? Laura from Tenthwave or someone at CBS? I've only ever heard from Tenthwave.

Yeah, Laura. Maybe she has yet to contact you.

What name/title did you put in the form when you submitted? The column might have been labeled "Name" or "Description". I can't remember now. I just remember I ran into a character limit when trying to type "The U.S.S. Drake and 12 Cloaked Klingon Birds of Prey".
 
In which case I don't have a freakin' clue what title I put when I submitted the picture :P If I were to do it now though, something along the lines of "Hunting the Hive" might work.

I guess you'll find out once it's in print :p
