Amazing work Rel. She's a beauty.

I am like a kid in a sweetshop/candystore. Every thread I view, I think to myself, Yeah! I need one of those, or I can do that, or i wonder if they're doing a run.....

your build fits into the, "I WANNA BUY ONE" category. Totally beautiful, the attention to detail.

This looks great.. Glad to see some of the red make it back on her

REL · 09-09-2011, 03:50 PM

I finished the base.

SteveNeill · 09-09-2011, 03:57 PM

Class. Pure class.

Steve

cosmic_x · 09-09-2011, 04:11 PM

yep, simply beautiful

vaderman1701 · 09-09-2011, 04:24 PM

Richard,

This is beautiful work. I think JJ Abrams should contact you about using this as the new Klingon ship design for the reboot Start Trek.

SmilingOtter · 09-09-2011, 04:53 PM

Superb.

Ruddigger · 09-09-2011, 04:59 PM

I hear angels singing when I look at this ship. Should I get that checked?

feek61 · 09-09-2011, 05:32 PM

Wow!!! simply stunning.

MedixWerkeShopp · 09-10-2011, 12:55 AM

Rich,

You're gonna have to come up with a pretty incredible follow-up tp that! That piece is truly a work of art!

If you ever decide to put that into production...I'm in front of the line!

Spacemunkie · 09-10-2011, 01:06 AM

Stunning!

Smiling Demon · 09-10-2011, 03:14 AM

This looks amazing!!

I think they should use this ship in the next movie. I mean, if they came upgrade the Enterprise why not a Klingon, right?

Have you added weathering to this? It looks even more awesome than before!
The more I see it, the more I think this would have been a perfect ship to use in TNG to fit between the early K'tinga design and the later Vor'cha. Heck, if the rumours of TNG remastering are true perhaps they still could use it?

The only way it would work in the JJ-verse is if you inflated the nacelles, bent the body out of shape, made the bridge dome a different size to the rest of the model and then changed the scale halfway through filming.

Mike J. · 09-10-2011, 10:11 PM

Damn that looks nice. Love the triangular windows - brilliant.

(Lupus: and the bridge would have to look like an Apple store.)

Mike J. · 09-10-2011, 10:14 PM

Did you 'brown-up' the panels-that-used-to-be-red-but-then-were-green?

Show this do Doug Drexler or John Eaves and I bet they'd poop their pants with jealousy.

YenChih Lin · 09-11-2011, 02:52 AM

Actually I posted the links from Rich to Doug and John as well as Rick on FB… Doug was very impressed with that!

I totally agree, I love the stylised design. A true work of art

TheMadGasser · 12-13-2011, 12:17 PM

Simply breathtaking. THIS was an awesome thread to read through.

Chrisisall · 12-13-2011, 12:22 PM

It's at once very original and very Klingon; congratulations on a big WIN here!!!

Underdog · 12-18-2011, 04:30 PM

Fantasmagoric work Richard! I really need to scratch something new and different....
Frankly, I'm ready to actually build a ship for a change. LOL!

REL · 05-08-2012, 05:16 PM

Found more pics.

Chrisisall · 05-08-2012, 05:50 PM

Another angle of greatness!

Monster Dave · 05-08-2012, 06:20 PM

You guys and your scratch builds! Holy crap!! The sheer skill level to do this type of a project, and do it THIS well, is amazing to me.

Really great work!!
