Nice find. QMx's website didn't have nearly as big high res images or I would've posted about this myself.

Good pics. Feel like they have been lazy with the saucer Aztec and used the refit connie. From the publicity shot of the cgi model it is different and closer to the jjprise.

Interesting...the pattern on the artisan model at comic con is different from those earlier publicity pics. Maybe the CC one is a prototype? The smaller model has the same pattern as the publicity picks. Good catch!

That's a nice catch, I wouldn't have noticed that the smaller model has a different pattern.

I guess there are only a few of us here that have worked on all the canon Enterprise's that we notice these things.

It seems like there is considerably more reference to the Vengeance now than before. I plan on getting one of the smaller Vengeance models ($100 range) when they become available.

The Hot Wheels one is pretty decent, and features a few details on the upper saucer that are not featured on the Qmx version.

On a side note, the two big guns that come out of the Vengeance (when they were charging up, aiming at the Enterprise) emerge from a set of two doors on the port and starboard areas of the lower saucer.

FarShot · « **Reply #4890 on:** July 20, 2013, 03:06:15 PM »

I thought they came out of invisible hatches in the forked area near the front.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #4891 on:** July 20, 2013, 03:11:49 PM »

I figured, since the Vengeance's port side was facing the Enterprise, the two guns had to be located close together, emerging from the underside of the saucer. It seemed like a logical placement.

We won't know until the movie is released.

Hey, I'm pretty sure you saw this end, but is anyone else thinking that not only is the Vengeance a Battleship, but it also MAY be a carrier for smaller ships and/or fighters. Take a look at the ports there on the Port and Stbd sides of the ship's aft expanded hull: could those be shuttle doors?

As much as I love CGI for the freedom it gives in showing new and more ships anyone else wish they would still go through the process of making a model first like they did on LOTR

baz1701 · « **Reply #4895 on:** July 30, 2013, 09:02:13 AM »

Well with everything else done I'm back with a Vengenace!!!

Sometimes you might as well just start over.

Looking good.

Nice! Looking forward to seeing this one develop.

Obviously you're not at the pylon point yet, but when you get to it, I think the nacelles are a bit further apart than that.

Her a** remembers a lot the "head" of the new Galactica, or a snake at least.

Not very sleek and graceful. Very military oriented.
What was the crew compliment again. Very small right?
