Really nice impressive model.
Looking forward to seeing it finished and lit up.

Rich, like everything you make, this is a work of art. One day I'll have enough money to get one of your fantastic pieces.

Love the size of this ship, can not wait to see more of your posts, you are the cleanest modeller I know, keep it up.

Thanks.

I'm working on the nacelle lighting, it's different from any other trek ship as there's detail inside the nacelle.

Sweet! So pretty.....oops, I mean bad ass!

 

[Cadeus]

It's OK, Pumpkin, you can say "pretty". Now go do some jello shots and punch-out a biker!!! LOL!!! Oh, I'm sorry... I couldn't resist! (This model is epic-cool. I wish I could afford it. ) ... OPS! Gotta go. I'm late for my mani-pedi!

Got the lighting installed in the nacelles.

A few questions: What are you using to light the inside of the nacelles (which look amazing!) Any chance we can get a couple profile views of the Defiant? Also, where did you get layouts/sizes/measurements to even start?

 

[REL]

All the lighting is LED's. I'll have better pics soon.

A little more done.

 

[Galaxyman1701d]

Ooooooo! So cool!

 

[Michael Bergeron]

Beautiful work as usual! I don't even like this ship and my jaw's on the floor! :lol

You're making me appreciate it more!

All these cool Trek ships showing up making me wish I had the room for a fleet! This is just incredible!

Don't think of it like that. Think of all the room you could conquer and claim as your own if you had a proper fleet!!!

 

[REL]

Thank you

Yes i know the deflector is crooked, it's just taped on, lol.

 

[Chronicle]

OMG. Nice work.

REL, the Defiant's my favourite Trek ship and I have to say, it's been such a pleasure following this thread all these years now (quite honestly, it was the reason I joined this forum).

I can't wait to see this when finished. To echo what Max said a few posts up, please post a ton of pictures and videos when she's all done (and you have time).

Nice work.
This Picture makes me remamber some crazy scale erros from StarTrek FX department.

For me, the DS9 opening shows Enterprise-D too small in comparison to DS9 station. And the Defiant docking in Ds9 looks in wrong scale too.

Thank you

I dont know, it does look out of scale compared to that Egyptian scuplture.
