                        I thought I'd bump this up as the master himself, Masao, has joined us. He is a great guy and his site will engulf you with all it's eye candy! http://www.starfleet-museum.org/

                        you know what is odd some of the ships that had decals present in the reissue of the 1966 Ertl Enterprise were of the Yorktown class were the yortowns the offshoot of the Constitution or was the Constitution class the offshoot of the Yorktown class ? oh and Matt Deckers ship the Constellation is a Yorktown class starship.

                        Which ever one you decide, I hope you go for it. Either one would make a very unique model.

                        The Second one is a 'Yorktown' class carrier that carriers 5 'Minotaur' class fighters. The first 'Armirillo' class' is a small cruiser and would be an easier scratch build for me to start with.

                        Those are sharp images. I think I like the first design best. Is the second ship a carrier?

                        I was thinking of either this one (the one in the foreground):

                        Or this one:

                        My favorites are the ships from the age of the Earth/Romulus war. I have found several CG desktop images of the ships from that age. One of them could be an easier scratchbuild project for me.

                        Some neat ships there Woody. I personally like the Franz Joseph Designs from the Star Fleet Technical Manual. Got the PNT conversion for the Saladin Class Destroyer that I can't wait to get started on.

                        I bumped this back up because I'm curious what you think about these Pre-Trek designs.

                        Starfleet Museum builds anyone?

                        I just wondered if anyone has built or considered building any of the "early" starships featured on the Starfleet Museum site? http://www.starfleet-museum.org/ I know a kit is available of the Wasp class, any others out there?
