Plans of the K-7?

[trekman1017]

Does anyone have any decent plans of the K-7 Space station from the trouble with tribbles/trials and tribblelations? I would like to attempt a scratchbuild of it.

Not sure how accurate they are but here are some. They look decent.

Isnt there a kit of this, just buy it and scale it up. And accurize it.

The model kit is terribly inaccurate, as are most blueprints which are based on it.

I've got a CGI version thats based mostly on Greg Jein's model, I could render out some orthos for you if you'd like;

I'd like that please

Here you are. Some of the smaller detailing here is my own, so just make sure to check your reference photos. You can find some good shots of the model these days at Drexfiles and John Eaves' blog.

Very nice,

Thanks for the pics, I might have to try a scratch build myself

Thank you very much for the plans

I seem to remember seeing the model is made from pieces of some other real world proposed space station or moon base. I've seen pictures of the main structures that are the round modules of K-7. Characterized by the scalloped panels which were incorrect on the AMT kit.

Found it.

Interesting project, I planned to build one myself but haven't got pass the drawing stage, here's what I came up with after much research, it's based on the original K7 rather than Greg's version.

I was going to say this site is a scratch builder's dream.

I looked at my plans and noticed a major mistake, which I corrected here:

I had the number of pie segments wrong.
