1/350 U.S.S. Defiant

While I wait for someone to finish up the LCARS panels for the Runabout I started on the next project; a 1/350 Defiant. I have gotten the shape down right and am just working on the details now. Took quite a bit effort as the Defiant is quite a complex set of shapes!
I hope to get this one out as a kit eventually.

I hope you like my start on this one and I’m hoping to do a, Voyager, Vor’Cha and Galor in the same scale after.

impressive, (y) i'll be following this, a defiant in 1/350, :eek: im a guessing a huge amount of 3dprinting, is it going to be fdm or sla,


im just starting my 1:700 enterprise which is requiring a lot of printing, :)
 
I have been mostly working on the details, but I did rework the nacelles to have a more accurate shape.
I think I may rework the deflector section a bit but otherwise the shape is pretty locked in now.

I’d love to get some feedback on what you guys think.

I think you pretty much have the shapes nailed, Sophie! :) My only concern is that I recall the Defiant having more panel lines, but maybe I'm a bit premature on that and you haven't gotten to those yet?

Regardless, I do think you're very much on the right track here! :D
Thank you! I’m not 100% on the nose section yet, might tweak it a bit.

Ah yes, I haven’t gotten around to those yet. They’re usually the last bit I do.

I’m already planning the next 1/350 project and I’m thinking it might be the Akira Class
 
I rebuilt the nose section and got the complex pattern of the deflector dish down. I also started on the pulse phasers. I think she's looking better and the details are slowly coming together!

Not long now till I can do a prototype.
