I hate it when SkyDrive does that. Couldda swore I had permissions on those set right.
My appologies for that. It should be corrected now.
The second picture is especially gorgeous... Well done!
"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward." - Rocky Balboa (2006)
This picture demonstrates my stance about the Sovereign very well; It is very tiny and would not have the power output of the 2 ships next to it. The Galaxy should just be better in almost every way.
The Galaxy is bigger, but the Sovereign is more advanced.
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them." -Thomas Marrone
Bigger doesn't necessarily mean better when it comes to technology, but also I wouldn't really look at STO as a "realistic" portrayal of what these ships would really be like in-universe in 2409.
But personally I think the STO version of the soverign is far too small. It just doesn't look right. If you look at something like this: http://www.st-minutiae.com/misc/comparison/comparison_medium.png it looks heftier compared to the Galaxy there than it does in STO.
I guess I'll go ahead and post the screenshot of one of my character's Ambassador ships.

Assuming equivalent technology (which is a valid assumption in the case of refitting and retrofitting), the thing with more space for more equipment and more power generation is more powerful.

It isn't. Length is only one dimension. You must also consider height and width. The Sovereign is *small*.
how did you get it so close with out auto-docking????
Open the docking dialog window b4 you approach the ESD, it wont auto dock with this open, so u can fly right inside if you want, not much to see in there tho...
ah yes the NX above all others. The king of kings :cool:
P.S. I have mine armed to the teeth. Legend has it I once went a whole 4 minutes, against two spheres without blowing up :cool:
I put it there cause that's what I was flying and it had to be there to get the angle I wanted If I were to put my favorite at the top I think it would be the ENT-B.

It's not epic unless it's HD :P
Nice work on this though (I'm assuming it's your work) it's a beautiful ship and a faithful model.
