Okay, well. It's all but finished. I'm having problems with my homemade decals. they're curling up on me and are not adhering to the hull very well. So I'll have to post updated photos as soon as I get them. Otherwise, here is a buildup (with pix) of my Daedalus Class Build:

Let me know what y'all think!

Captain_Mills - Very nice work. For a ship that does not have a lot of detail it came out looking superbly. The engineering examples show you using a step technique for the area around the main deflector. I could not yell from your pics if you filled in the steps to make them smooth or if you kept the step look. Again, very nice work.

Thanks. If you read the build-up, I mention that I lathe the step to a smooth conic section. I will post updated photos after I figure out the decals, and can give you better details. Let me know if there is more detail you'd like me to add or photograph...

Thanks Snoopy

Maybe if I actually read instead f skim over things and not just look at pics I would not ask stupid questions. I went to start my Daedalous the other day from supplies order by my LSH and go figure some stuff has not arrived and the sphere for the primary hull were the wrong ones. All I can do for now is get the nacelles rolling. When I get a hold of a camera I will post some pics but that might be a while since the only I have is a digital camcorder that did not come with drivers for my computer and SONY does not return my calls about the fact I cannot download the drivers from their website. I am having nothing but problems with getting this project started.
