I don't think there was a "real" studio ship.  Everything I've read on it indicated it was all CG.  As for the color for the grid lines, I'm planning on using a dark gray for mine because I think black would have too much contrast and give it more of an "anime" look than realistic "Trek" look.

the grid would actually be that dish shaped thing at the front of the ship.

Detail Question for NX-01 Deflector grids / emmiters?
Posted by Big Jake on Sunday, March 28, 2010 9:01 PM

Maybe some one can help me on a detail question for the large NX-01. On the box art they show what I think are the deflector emmitters/grids.  These are darkened to contrast, are they drakened on the "real ship" used in the studio?  I don't know wether to use india ink to darken them or not. BTW I found what I consider to be just about the best ultra-small fine line marker from Fiber-castel 0.1mm  oh it gets in the groves real good.
