My goal with this model (and with two more that I'm currently working
on) is to re-create the first Battle of Basilisk (On Basilisk Station by
David Weber) in animated form.

I see some white pixels in the upper half of the image, and a very
dark grey area somewhere in right half of the image, barely visible.
There are some slightly brighter gray lines there, apparently forming
some kind of grid.
Everything else looks pure black.

good start! ..... perhaps a light_group on what appears to be the planet
below the craft might provide a little more contrast. the star field is
pretty good!

I thought Manticoran hulls were supposed to be white? which would
have the additional advantage of making it visible...

Howdy,
Too dark, so I lit it up with Coral Photopaint and voilá, a space station!
The model is promising, I always like spot lights!
OK, the planet is absolutely black, I guess it shall be the night side.
If so, couldn't you add a few more light sources on the space station to
illuminate it?
Just an idea.
Yours,
Bu.

But that's more or less how I viewed it in the first instance... (Apart
from the planet was a bit dark, but the space station looked fine to me on
my monitor).

That's not a space station, it's a light cruiser!
BTW, I checked the schematics in the books and the hammerheads are
too large. They're supposed to be nearly flush with the impeler
rings on top and bottom and only slightly larger on the sides. Other
than that (and the gray color of the hull instead of white) it's a
pretty good model. Keep it up!

It looked fine on my machine, but then I viewed it from work, and,
well...So I added another light source, and boosted the gamma.

With a goofy weapon load. Hemphill was on drugs when she ordered this
refit.

The colour was purest white, but there's not a lot of illumination. As
to the hammerheads, the sizes were based on measurements given in an
online resource I probably shouldn't have trusted. Note that they are
almost flush with the impeller rings on top and bottom; it's to port
and starboard that they stick out further.

Heh, ok, I'm not familiar with all these space vehicle names. :)

Well, it worked, didn't it? ;) Well ok, just once but still...

Even on top and bottom, they stick out by nearly the radius of the
impeller ring! In the books I have, the impeller nodes stick further
out than the hammerheads on top and bottom. In fact, your vertical
dimension would be nearly right for the horizontal dimension (should
be just a teeny tiny bit more).

;) Actually, I think it's still a bit too much on top and bottom.
OTOH, it's much too small side to side, but of course, you already
knew that :)
