1/350th Dreadnought Class Converstion (Image Heavy)

[vaderman1701]

Hey All,

As I said, I have been busy. Here is another project I have been working on while finishing the old TOS E build-up and working on the 1/350th Constellation Class (Stargazer). This will be a 1/350th Dreadnought conversion kit for the PL Refit.

The neck has been modified and extended for the third nacelle warp pylon. The third nacelle pylon still needs work. This one is just a mock-up. The nacelles have been modified by moving the pylon connection area forward and then creating a slot for the pylon attachment. The pylon is two parts (a top and a bottom). It is designed to run wiring to light it. Finally the strongback has been modified by removing the old pylon bases and inserting new hull panels. Then are piece was cut out for the pylon to placed on.

The neck, nacelles, and strongback will be vacuformed and the pylons will be resin. I still need to modify the bridge.

Let me know what you guys think.

I guess I am not as big a Star Trek Geek as I should be because I could not picture the ship finished and had to go look up the Dreadnought Class.:lol


Looks great so far. I have a love to for the larger scales ships so nice work going for this scale. I still need to finish my regular 350 PL:rolleyes
