Is there a way to change the colors of the ships so that when one is front of the other its' easier to tell them apart? Like giving DS9 a brown tint and making the Ent E brighter than say Galactica? Might help.

Sorry to tell you but there is no definate size to DS9. Trust me, the arguements have been raging back and forth for years. The DS9 Tech Mannual is also horrendously wrong with most ships sizes. Visual evidence in the show also varies almost week to week. One of Treks big downfalls is inconsistant FX. For example the Klingon Bird-of-Prey has been seen any where from 50m to 700m long

This site is probably the best place to get an answer http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/ or the people on this forum http://scn.infopop.cc/eve/ubb.x can help you out. Show them some of your work and Im sure they'll go out of their way to help, though their very helpful all the time. They'd love to see some great renders like yours

Keep up the good work.
