SSV Normandy SR2 - bigger, better, rebuilt from the ground up.


Just in time for E3 and, hopefully, a Mass Effect announcement.
The model has been rebuilt from scratch over a couple of months. I took some artistic liberties with the details, most notably on the engines, but also on the bridge, which was a bit plain on the original and game models. For the outer hull I took a page from the Galactica book. The panels are raised and set on visible bulkheads. The insides that are visible through the windows are also modelled and lit.
Original size 14400 pixels for 1200mm @ 300dpi print.

    Would love to get hold of the original photo in hi-res and print it out full size to go on a wall!

    Amazing photo.

    1. Thank you. Unfortunately i do not release the full res images for precisely that reason - people can just print them. I have sold a couple of these prints over the years, so if you are really keen, i can print it and post it to you. The price including postage would be in the vicinity of $200 AUD.
