3 D CGI Destiny - WIP

Hi all..
First post here...am hoping for some comments on the "esc Destiny". A little background...

The idea for Destiny right now is to make it an Internet series. It takes place around 2078 (given a few nice discoveries in theoretical physics). The Destiny is an exploration vessel and was funded by independent businesses (Earth Space Consortium). The driving force behind Destiny is myself and Mike Glover. Destiny is his concept and the modeling has been done by me (Dan Nobles). Please let me know what you think so far!!! And I will be happy to try to answer any questions you might have. Thanks!

The basic model with no texture...ONE BIG ANTENNA ARRAY...

Some of the things you are seeing here are (from left to right)...the slight glow of the bridge viewscreen...the dome of the tactical room...the large dome is the arboretum...the Com Antenna seen in the previous shot and then at the end is a huge dish patterned after the Arecebo Observatory in Puerto Rico...I will post some detail shots of these if there is any interest.
