Hey Steve!
Looks like you've got this one under control. I don't think many modelers/fans know that this ship is a real bear to get right. You're working with four body sections that all have to be proportionate to each other. Plus this ship's angles and front/side views have been skewed by camera lenses, etc. during filming of TOS..so the distortions can exaggerate what the miniature should really look like.
For a "non-rivet counter", you sure coulda fooled me! LOL! It has that "scary-too-real" look to it (like Merriman's work). Congrats!!
You nailed this one! Good for you! Congrats on the hard work, and I can relate to the dedication to getting something this complex--done! I'm with you in spirit during those long evenings and weekends when you're having hurdles to jump making it work.
Excellent work, Steve!!
