Spacedock Photomanip

Here's a quick photomanip I threw together... the 1701-D and the Sutherland, leaving Spacedock.

Love it. The one thing that's always annoyed me is that screencaps of Trek movies & TV shows featuring Ournal-Class spacedocks (& Utopia Planetia, too,) never have just one or two ships loitering-around or standing in a queue for repairs, at Yellow Alert just in case there's a SNAFU while everyone else is busy on shore leave or conducting business. But I like this image alot. Well done. I hope to see more.
 
Thanks, guys... I AM working on a new pic, just been busy with real-life work and bills and the such... but expect a new piccy by tomorrow night. :D
 
Really beautiful pic. Saved a copy in My Documents.

You know, when I was a kid, this is how I used to imagine Starfleet in the 24th century. Nothing earlier than the Excelsior era - if that!

I can just see an Intrepid Class starship exiting the doors on the other side of the station, an Olympic Class hovering further below, an Akira warping in-system and an Ambassador warping out. Oh, and an old Grissom docked inside for upgrades.
 
Thanks.

well, I did want to do one with a seldom-used older ship, so here it is, hehe.

Now2 that you mention the intrepid, I may do one with the Intrepid-Class... we'll see. :D

Any chance of a shot of the full station? Nice job, love the first pic.
 
Looks very cool. :)

If I, as a fellow photo manipulator, may offer a point though?

The lighting of the Sutherland would line up more if it where on the "right" side top of the image, while vice versa, the dark shadows of the E-D would line up better on the bottom left.

Well, that's the thing with these... the lighting... the candidate ship(s) have to be at a pleasing angle, AND have lighting that will match up with Spacedock's, both in angle and intensity. I'm working on something a tad different now, so maybe I'll have that up by tonight. :D

Yeah, about that... please don't put the sombrero stuff in my thread... personally, I really don't like the whole sombrero thing going on.

Here is something new... the 1701-A and the Excelsior, lazing about near Spacedock, after the events of TUC.

I removed it from my post.

Thanks.

With regards to the sombreros, it's not that I hate them per se... it's just that I feel it's a gag that has run its course and then some. It was funny at first, but now it's just too old... so no disrespect, that is just my reason. Thanks for respecting my wishes,though. :D
