I appear to be the only one that finds the blur a tad too... blurry. But just a tad. And otherwise, I like it. What'd the poor Columbus do to deserve this?

LOL, indeed. Seems like now that Dave does blurring, he takes it to the extreme XD

Still, cool image though

All Civilian ships should have weapons.

Or at least someone who can lean out an airlock with an anti-ship torpedo launcher.

Knowing starfleet's usual bluder of "one ship in the sector", the poor blokes are fried

Blur effect is good, but possibly a bit overdone. It adds to the panic, yes, but it also takes away from the actual sight of what's going on.

Other than that, though, good scene ^_^

Honor... TOS Klingons were not the honor-bound cookie-cutters, they were awesome Soviet space invaders

Bloody hell, that's some structural damage! Better run indeed! Cool effect though. Certainly adds a feel of panic to the scene.

The glowing metal effect to show starship damage, are just too awesome.

Although I can see them having two chances. Medusans are far better pilots than Klingons. (Than anyone really) They should be able to outmaneuver them.

Second, If the Klingons decide to board the ship, they're the ones who would likely be in trouble, and I doubt Klingon warriors however insane would pose a physical threat to the Medusans. After all, whats an energy being got to fear from a Bat'lth?

Of course I'm thinking about this too much. I'm a trekkie.

Still, quite an awesome picture. Also like the motion blur on the D-7. Gives a "documentary" feel to the whole thing.

Thank you very much.

I don't know whether they are really Medusans on board. I intended this ship to be a standard Federation civilian craft, I named it Medusan ship to identify it with the ship seen i TOS-R

Great navigators, but not good tacticians. That's what humans and Andorians are for.
