Like your last refitted Enterprise released some time ago, I find this one very appealing.  I guess it's mostly because that it's the very Enterprise artwork I saw on my old VHS copies of the first five or six Star Trek movies.  As always throughout the years, I must say that you put out quality work over time.  Good work as usual, and I look forward to what else you have up your sleeve.

I promise that there is ALOT more up my sleeve  ;D

Well I am still working on this baby and now I have started working on some alternate textures. Starting with the U.S.S. Vanessa E. Steggs. NCC-2801. It shows some more of the detail I am working on right now.

Will Decker:

You never cease to amaze. One minute I think you've come up with your masterpiece, the next you outdo yourself.

I still have every one of your Connies in my game. I have a special folder for them, so if I ever have to do a reinstall of the game (which I've done twice since I got the game) I can immediately put them back in. Ya can't go without the staples.

BTW, I really dig the window details.

The level of detail is incredible, especially the windows!

Forgot to ask you, Will Decker:

Out of all your projects, how many do you think are complete, and how many are WIPs?

There's got to be a fleet of 'em!

The window textures are awesome - I really like the officers lounge.

Seeing the Steggs like that proves you do. :) Good job as usual.

Very nice!  SFC3 is the best for screenshots, even if the gameplay is lacking.

Why don't you submit one of these screenshots to http://starfleetcommand3.filefront.com/ as a PotD?  I'm sure greenvalv would love to have more screenshots to work with right now.

Don't worry Chris. I made sure the models will work in the other games too  ;)

 ;D As nice as these Connies are, I am looking forward to seeing V' Ger and the non-Federation ships myself.

This is one of the best models I've ever seen. Will there be a version for SFC2?

Well Tracy, I believe Decker will have one for SFC2 ready (and maybe for SFC1 as well if I interpret his message right).

In any case Will, thanks very much. :)

I agree with everyone ...  I love the attention to detail.  Perhaps even more so I love the over all presentation.  It looks to be more than just a good model.
