are we going to get one with a blue array in front?
Was there one like that ? I can't remember ...

Thought so, blue wouldn't fit there anyway...

I believe they are referring to this image which was a promotional image.  It was never blue in any of the series though as serverandenforcer has already pointed out.

I thought they started out that way on TNG, would make a nice variant.

I'd swear they were that colour in "the wounded"?

Perhaps the Blue deflector is similar to the Constitution class' yellow deflector, i.e. low power mode.

The blue deflector was a VFX error from the promo shot posted above only. Server's Galor is the CGI version, so that means only the late Dominion Wars one (from Sacrifice of Angels - where it was first seen - on) only (red deflector, white phaser pyramids and formation lights). The docked Galors on the space sequences of DS9 during the Dom occupation where the studio model one.

Blue is always a measure of high power wavelengths

(It's too bad I always liked the blue array over the red)

...and when did that realistically ever matter on Sci-Fi in general? The coloring is for recognition of who is shooting and stuff, never had anything to do with physics.

A proto-type Galor maybe?

I stress again, it was never shown onscreen, only on the Ertl model kit art and in Star Trek Mechanics!  :picardfacepalm:

I understood what you said :) . I was just thinking an alternative texture to mix things up a bit.

I get that, but thing is that people loose too many time recreating every single VFX screwup in ST history instead of doing something better and more needed (like ships that are canon but not well known) to mix stuff up.

Toned down the glow on the deflector and on the warp engines.

I like that Idea.  Considering they've done just about every kind of Galaxy and Sovereign there is and them some it's about time the alien designs got the finesse touch...He's doing a good job on the model.  These new glows look better.

blie deflector, red deflector... doesn't matter. the deflector was supposed to be like that of all Fed ships, a navigational array sort of thing, but the vfx people shot lasers out of them, so thats the Galor we have. (sorry for the techno babble) pure speculation, but maybe the glitch of that promo shot wasn't a glitch at all. maybe its showing a sort of explorer version, with a deflector made for scanning and not weapons. but that is just speculation. not looking to restart an arguement here :hithead:.
