Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.

From "The Charge of the Light Brigade"
--Alfred, Lord Tennyson

During the Domion War's siege of Deep Space Nine by Cardassian and Dominion forces, Captain Sisko devised a plan to take back the station; a fleet of 600 Starfleet vessels faced twice as large an enemy force.

The orders were simple, "...anyone who gets through doesn't stop until they reach Deep Space Nine!"
    

COMPOSITION: Starfield was rendered, the remaining background elements, especially the explosion fx were composited/digitally painted from scratch in Photoshop by me. The setup of the ships with lighting rig and subsequent render was done in Lightwave. I've made some texture changes to the Defiant and the Bird of Prey. The remaining post work was done in Photoshop.

MESHES: Defiant class by Skye Dodds, Peregrine class by Arctorus, Bird Of Prey by Fabio Passaro, Galor class by Ed Giddings.

Can you give me a link for the 2500x1300 version? It looks good spanned across my two monitors as it is, but it's a bit pixelated.

If Star Trek Renegades ends up being half as phenomenal as this pic right here, I'll be extremely pleased...
This is one of your best explosion pics yet!
