Really? That's interesting, 'cause it was just a "I have a couple of spare parts lying around, lets see what happens if I glue this here..."

Thanks!

Bernard Guignard · October 14 2012, 05:52 PM

I'd like to see full orthos on the the following
UES Perry
USS Artemis
The Space station
USSThemistophles
The Heavy Shuttle Craft

All great Kitbashes Keep up the great work

Let's face it, anything made out of Galaxy class parts is gonna be good. And your four Galaxy class derivatives are awesome!

So whats that Preeble Sub class look like? 2 nacelles?

Forbin · October 15 2012, 03:44 AM

Sub Class? Oh, the Ticonderoga? No, just move the nacelle backwards. After I finished this, I thought it would have been sleeker that way. But it was too late.

Bell'Orso · October 15 2012, 09:54 AM

You know, while your in-universe explanation for the Ticonderoga does make sense, the way the nacelle attaches on the Preble 1) doesn't have the neck interfere with those gold exhaust vents behind the bussards and 2) gives the ship some character and sets it apart a bit from just being a TNG Saladin, along with the topside deflector.

Forbin · October 16 2012, 02:53 AM

Okay, then.

BTW, I'm going to be scarce during the day - the firewall at work just decided to block TBBS this week.

Been a while since I updated the comparison chart on my kitbash page. Here's the side views so far, flush left (providing my web provider is up)

Santaman · October 17 2012, 08:26 PM

Your provider seems to cooperate

Still very fond of the Reeses...

Kaiser · October 18 2012, 12:07 AM

Been worth the years of waiting for a update to that pic

Forbin · October 18 2012, 02:46 AM

You love the Reeses to pieces?

(thanks!)

Santaman · October 18 2012, 11:09 PM

For some reason Reeses is almost the perfect pre-TOS ship design, it has enough crudeness with a certain style to it.

Kinda like the huge monitors the British build, HMS Erebus for example, its strange looking, functional, clunky but it has a certain beauty.

I like all of Reeses pieces as long they're firmly attached to each other, Reeses in pieces would be a sad thing...

Forbin · October 19 2012, 03:30 AM

And I built the damn thing as a joke, too. Go figure.

Back before Polar Lights got the Trek license, we were constantly begging them to go for it over at HobbyTalk. So I took two Polar Lights models - the Jetson's saucer and the Dick Tracy Space Coupe - jammed 'em together and made a "Polar Lights Star Trek model."

Bell'Orso · October 19 2012, 06:19 PM

Say, Forbin, now that you've done the Broadsword (the side view of which I had been drooling over for a long time before you finally built her), you ever gonna bash the Wolf from your story? I just love that behemoth.

EDIT: Oh and that new comparison chart is awsesome, of course.

137th Gebirg · October 19 2012, 07:10 PM

Ah, yes...the Wolf. Love that thing. I remember buying the printed diagrams of that many years ago and used it as a major plot device in an alternate-universe RPG where the Terran Empire was using it to destroy the Changeling's homeworld in the Gamma Quadrant, wiping out the last vestiges of the Dominion. It was so awesome I had to use it somehow, although I think it fits more in the mirror universe than the prime universe. Planet-killing mass drivers isn't very Starfleet-y.
