===== From denny1@home.com: Wow, I remember that episode. The stains and corrosion on the pipes and tanks is very good, makes it look more realistic. I really like the plants, expecially the tall, long leaved ones on either side of the door. The rocks look like sandstone, but sandstone would have a rougher, granier texture to them. I guess they're special Star Trek rocks which obey Star Trek geology. ===== From gregj56590@aol.com: Wonderful use of scale. ===== From Nathan@Kopp.com: great 'aging' effects. the sand in the foreground could have used a bit more detail. nice sky ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: Although it says it is imaginary, in my eye it is not so much. This very much looks like the big industries that help so much polute our atmosphere. Some haze might have helped on the artistic touch. ===== From houston.graphics@iname.com: Before I read the description of this image, I had a feeling I'd seen this before, nice. ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: A nice image, one of the best, well done. ===== From arcana@sinbad.net: Nice recreation! :{) ===== From gshaw@monotix.co.za: Rocks and sky are nice. The picture seems to be lacking a focus ===== From clem@dhol.com: Nice job technically, but see comments on your other image. ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: Fantastic, absolutely amazing. Beautifully detailed - the rust stains just cap it off. I actually recognised the scene, too... Only problem, shadows from fill lights around the trees look unrealistic - should have made them shadowless. ===== From jull43@ij.net: An excellant dupe of a classic image. Star Trek has had my imagination since it was new. And J. Michael's also if you notice the doorways in Minbar. You are getting gratuitous extra points becuase it inspires my imagination. ===== From r@ascend-tk-p165.rhrz.uni-bonn.de: Good image: The machinery is modelled with lots of details and I like the "worn" look on it (like the washed out rust at the joints etc.) Notable for textures, modelling, composition ===== From r@209.155.62.50: a winner! Notable for textures, modelling, lighting
