I'm not sure if your image has too much, or some elements (such as the Klingon cruiser) are just unclear. Otherwise it's very good. The lighting seems appropriate for a giant ion storm.
No the storm hides the upper left. At first I couldn't tell what it was until I read your post. If maybe you overlay the Enterprise and Klingon (that is the subject matter yes?) over the storm, rather than under it, it'd be easier to pick out.
Very nice, though the Klingon ship is very obscured. Good job.
If you added a few stars in some key locations, (for one behind the Klingon ship) like "breaks" in the storm, it would probably show them (the ships) up more. Maybe you can have bolt hitting one of the ships. (comment added 08/12/07)
The are two energy Ribbons, one in front of the camera and another behind the Ent, this is why it hard to see the Klingon ship and the stars. Thanks for all your comments.
A good try, but on the messy and scattered side. There lacks a strong focus for the eye. Unfortunately, the purple colour palette dull the overall image, due more to the purple/black contrast more than anything else. A brighter hue and maybe a different lighting scheme could improve things drastically!
Good work overall, but the credits are not correct.
I believe you are using Eric Peterson's Refit Enterprise mesh (not Dennis Bailey's) - converted to Blender format by Rashid Al-Marri - with revisions by Eric M. Clark (per the source's website).
Not trying to come across as a nit-picker, but we should make sure we give proper credit to those who deserve it.
