1:350 Master Replicas USS Enterprise & REL Botany Bay
When Master Replicas came out with their amazing USS Enterprise in 1:350 scale, artist Richard Long made the Botany Bay to scale with it, making for a great display. This Botany Bay was eventually re-released by Mike Salzo of MSLZ22 Models, and I believe Starship Modeler now owns these patterns. I did this shoot with a Canon Rebel SLR with an F-Stop set at 22. The Cargo Containers of the Botany Bay build here was made to be a cradle for the main body, and when shooting these models together I had not paid any attention to it’s position, as they are directional. Thus these photos show the Cargo Containers as backwards! LOL.
