SpiderMitch.blogspot.com: STO Original Artwork (Graphical Ship Charts by Spidermitch)

I used to actively play a MMO known as Star Trek Online. While there were many resources available, there was no ability to preview ships / stats at a quick glance. A member of the community abandoned a shipchart concept he started, and I decided to create one. What started out as a simple concept: create a shipchart that showed 'multiple angles of each ship & the stats of those ships' had become a major project. I developed these charts since June of 2010, and was urged to post it on the STO forums from some friends around August of 2010. The reaction I got was phenomenal, and as the game continued to grow, so did the attention to my 'little graphical shipchart'. Members of the community helped me in keeping these things up-to-date and accurate, and it's to that community which I gladly shared my little contribution to STO. In September of 2012, after a major update to STO added a flood of new ships, I decided to stop working on the project. I posted the following to the forum:

To all those that supported and used these charts: I have enjoyed making these charts & contributing to the passion of this community. It's what's tied me to this game (in an unofficial capacity) and I've always looked at this project as a "labor of love." But moving forward, I don't think I can give the attention needed to continue making this resource - at least not in the capacity that everyone using it deserves. I used to keep track of the dev blogs and listen to podcasts, anticipating new ships as they came out (often showing on the shipcharts with "placeholders"). I was usually on tribble with the test ships AS SOON as they were available; those that weren't on Tribble, I'd beg others for screenshots of the latest and greatest ship. With time constraints on me and working two jobs just to make ends meet, I really don't think I can continue, no matter how much I wish I could. If it was a paid gig, then yeah! bring it on! but, as I said, it's always been a "labor of love" and sometimes, love just isn't enough. *sad panda* Don't want to leave on a sad note though... I again want to thank everyone who's supported this project and gave me encouragement. Working on something like this for the better part of 2 years is a commitment I have enjoyed and held proudly. It's our love of Star Trek & it's ideals that unites us all - as a community and through our humanity, and I've learned so much through doing this for everyone. Thanks & I'll see you all in the stars...

For the sake of completion, I've included all three final pieces here. I may wind up uploading each version, to show the evolution of them, but that's for a rainy day :)
Note: added FULL RESOLUTION links of final renders.
