This may be old news, but it's pretty interesting. Serenity was added to a website that indicates the relative scale of spaceships.

She looks really shiny on the 10 pixels per meter page!

Little something I put together when I came across that site:

There's really no point to that picture, but I post it for ... no reason.

Ok, here it is in a format that will show up in the thread, and four pixels wider to accommodate all of the forsaken out there.

I agree, that is a good web-site. I'm glad other Coats have found it! It used to have a forum to discuss which new ships should be added.

I started the Serenity addition thread and I'm happy to say, a fair number of Browncoats and Sci-Fi enthusiasts backed my suggestion. Somebody else actually supplied the pictures.

Sadly the forum is now gone.

Chris, nice chart! I've always been a fan of seeing my favorite ships in the same space. That's what drew me to Starship Dimensions to begin with.

I tried my hand at a chart a while back, posted in the Blue Sun Room. That was before I realized the difference between JPG and BMP

This is the one that really got me:

That is a to-scale meeting of Vader's star destroyer, and the original Enterprise thanks to the very site this thread is about.

I've seen things where they have Star Trek vs. Star Wars, and I just imagine the slaughter that would be.

I'd more like to see Battlestar Galactic meets Star Wars or even S:AAB meets Battlestar Galactica.

I've always found a Star Trek meets anything but Star Trek a bit like mixing oil and water.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Star Trek, I just don't find it compatible with other Sci-fi.

There is on ship on the big page called 'Starplex' from the novel 'Starplex', written by Robert J. Sawyer. Does anyone know anything about this?
