The Excelsior Class has been refit for the 3rd time by Next Gen standards they only used the even older style than this varient in the Programme because of Budget Restrictions! Besides if this is supposed to be based on Personal Imagination I would have used a Rigel Class or Korolev Class! In my Universe in my head (Lol) the New Orleans doesn't have the silly struts but is a good contender for the Ambassador replacement programme! Ships without Deflector Dishes don't exist either!
I'd say this is pretty damn sweet, except (there's always an except or it's not an opinion!) like someone else said, the yellowish pod hatches are too prominent and the jumps need a little speed. Someone's lazily going into warp, methinks. Other than that, love the shading, the darkness of it all (space, dark, duh). Very cool, all around.
i have found a better enterprise & excelsior model for you at Foundation 3d. Type Foundation 3d into google and sign up. An admin will activate your account. Honestly a MUCH better model. My only recommendation for using it is, select the hull, and however your 3d modelling program does it, make the hull of the Foundation 3d model less shiny, honestly, as you get it its like a frakin mirror.
OK. Very good presentation. However one flaw on your Enterprise D. The yellow part of the warp engine between the blue grills and the bussard collecters is a bit too small. It should be enlarged.
Wow you got the angles and camera movements perfect! But tone down on the escape pod tone :P also need to get some global lighting in there. But amazing work :)
Thank you for your comment. The whole sequence was done on a lower render engine, check out Enterprise - D drydock 2.0 and see if it looks any better.
I hope you don't take this the wrong way - the basics are there and look solid, but your light setup could use a serious overhaul - that part is rather bland. Also you might want to look into higher resolution textures for the planets (and generally increase the contrast in the image) :)
It was excellent! The only thing I would advise you on is the actual jump to warp. You've got to make the ship stretch during the actual jump for it to look 'right'.
\m/ glad you liked it, I'm not a big fan of the stretch effect, but maybe if I do another one, TNG DS9 or Voyager, I might include the stretch effect for the warp out
Great attempt man. It feels Voyagerish. I like the end spin that the Enterprise does. I also like the warp effect, much more realistic than the "rubber band effect" they always used in the series.
That's what they've should have done on the seires.

Not bad. Add some motion blurring, a higher resolution, and a higher frame rate, and it will be excellent.

Yes, the ones you see on the underside of the saucer section from 0:35 to 0:47.
