Here's the original render, without the gray scale...only with the edges enhanced.

bung some recon esque text on that and it would be perfect.

i.e. Rangers Recon Sat WS87789987-VXC commencing scan of shadow homeworld.

or saiiiing.

No no! not text! Sorry, but I'm really tired of people plastering text on renders and trying to give them meaning or something like that. Something like this is good and clean and speaks for itself, a few more Shadow ships perhaps...

Oh to be honest I was talking about the color version... the grey one could well be used as a recon image...
