I feel this in my bones. As a professional #VFX artist who worked on one of the greatest IPs in entertainment, namely #StarTrek #Picard Season 3, this was quite the thing.

It's interesting that neither Fanhome or even STO has a 100% accurate version of the 25th century nacelles on the Stargazer, Titan-A/Enterprise G, and Duderstadt. They all lack the grid texture on the dark areas of the nacelles. #StarTrek

Because I haven't posted anything #StarTrek related in a while, here's a breakdown of the destruction of the #Shrike from #Picard Season 3! #VFX

During one of my rants against Trump back in 2016/2017 with my family, I was asked why I hated him so much. My reply: because he's everything I was raised NOT to be. He is a person I would never interact with willingly, nor would want anyone I cared about to interact with. He's a garbage human.

America is going to fall because millions of morons/gullible idiots thought voting in an idiot/moron who hires even bigger idiots/morons was a better idea than extremely qualified women.

Happy New Year y'all! Doing some new year computer cleaning, and I found this lovely gem from #StarTrek #Picard Season 3. These are all the different AOVs for the Titan-A and the Eleos. I worked with our comp supervisor to figure out what AOVs they needed and here they are! #VFX

Since we're looking at nacelles... here's some close-up of the bussards. There's an outer cover which is translucent. The grill just inside as an emissive animated texture. And then the bulbs inside are actually exceedingly bright, & have some spinny bits there. #StarTrek #Picard #Starships

Something you don't see everyday: Close-ups of the nacelles of the Neo Constitution Class. Something that STO, Fanhome, and most everyone else misses, is the pattern on the dark portions of the nacelles. It's not just gray paneling, it's actually got a texture to it. #StarTrek #Picard #startships

Here's a couple 4K renders of the TNG-Remastered asset of the Enterprise D. Enjoy! #StarTrek #TheNextGeneration #USSEnterpriseD #TNG-R

My computer was angry at me for doing these viewport renders.... It's finally chilled out now. These are nowhere near the level of quality that we used in production. These are tests to show off the detail inside #Spacedock. #StarTrek #Picard

Here's a gray shaded look at the interior of Earth Spacedock from #StarTrek #Picard Season 3.

How did I light the nacelles's bussard collectors on the Enterprise D? I started w/ a texture that emitted light, with a piece of geo over it for refraction and depth, & then a bunch of lights aimed in multiple directions to give it a specific glow and throw pattern. #startrek #vfx #behindthescenes

Here's a close up of the observation lounge on the #Enterprise-D from #StarTrek #Picard Season 3. The back wall where they used to have the gold ships is different. I placed a photo of our #VFX team in there. We ended up hiding it more for final because we didn't want to upset the powers that be.

Here's some more #StarTrek #VFX from Season 3 of #Picard! The glorious Fat One arrives at Jupiter from Episode 10. #EnterpriseD

My fellow #StarTrek fans! Where you at? I'm expanding here. Still using Threads as my main, but I bailed on Xitter. Expect more #Trek and #VFX content from me here too!

Here are some test stills of the #EnterpriseD from season 3 of #StarTrekPicard

Why not have my first post here be the Enterprise G?
