                        Inside joke, On American Idol, that Randy judge guy said a contestant was "in da dog pound Fa life", we all cracked up. I assumed that in da pound was a good thing! :)

                        Wow! I really like your style. Thanks for the step by step info,I liked it so much I even bookmarked your site for when I get the 1/1000 NX.
                        I used to be so uptight about my models I never finished anything because of the so called "Real Modelers". Lately however I really want to get back to just enjoying modeling when I get the time.

                        You know its funny.. I have had to use a little artistic licence with my refit! :-)

                        As for the so called "Real Trek Modelers" they are just dicks.. I have seen plenty of non-canon models getting about. By people that I wouldnt have guessed as the real deal!...But they always come through with the goods, with great modelling skill's regardless of the erors....

                        I build something for my own and people I know will see it's enjoyment.. A true Trek model, is like saying Japan deserves be in the Soccer World Cup.. We all know they have played crap teams to get in, but who am I to judge????

                        Why you little!
                        Actually, there are a lot of "errors" on her. I used what I like to refer to as "imagination" for some parts of the ship. It is highly frowned upon for most Trek models!

                        Sorry mate.. I had another look at it.. Its not quite done yet.. There is a panel on the bottom, that is 3 rows from the centre, about 1/16th of the way around from the right, that just doesnt seem strait enough in my opinion!.. he he he he.. Just jokes mate.. You know I loves ya!

                        Good Luck to everyone building her! Even if you dont lit it, the saran wrap in the bussard is a cool effect> Thanks for all the nice comments too.

                        It only took a little over a year, off and on. Fully lit except for the white strobes. Bussards rotate and navs flash.
