Ships of the Line

When some of the most creative CG (computer generated) artists in Hollywood, who also happen to be huge Star Trek fans, are allowed free rein to "Do something you would have like to have seen on Star Trek," the results will be stunning. Over the past seven years, wall calendars called Star Trek: Ships of the Line have displayed breathtaking art, only to be discarded at the end of the year. To celebrate the fortieth anniversary of Star Trek, the best calendar images of Star Trek battleships have been collected, with stories added to give them their proper setting in the Star Trek universe.
