So, I forgot to mention this other convention buy I'm excited about. It's a preorder, slated for release in December 2019, but I had to preorder it at the convention to get a pretty hefty discount.
They were kind enough to let me try on the prototype, which fit like a glove (note that some details of the jacket are missing, notably the "solar system patch" on the shoulder.
Now, to just put it out of my mind for a year and a half....
That's pretty awesome!!! Donny, you are a natural!

Nice.
Was there a reason that coat never resurfaced in the sequels?
It resurfaced in the next movie, Star Trek III: The Search For Spock. It was worn by Saavik.
And you can see it hanging up in Kirk's quarters in Star Trek VI.
Where are you going next when you do return, Donny? The crawl way and it's assembly's, Engineering deck, Spock's quarters, or maybe Scotty's quarters? I've always wanted to figure the decks and quarters theme from TOS; for example Yeoman Janice Rand. Deck 12, 3C 46. Lt. Commander Spock. Deck 5, 3F 121. How would you figure it out in your thought process while engaging this task, Donny?
Just to give everyone an update on where I'm sitting with things...
I'm enjoying this break I'm taking currently, as it's allowing me to re-balance my life in a few ways (fitness, social life, etc). I admit I got pretty caught up into ONLY working on this project in my free time and not allowing myself time for much else.
I'm also considering tinkering with some other modeling projects to take a brief break from the TOS stuff (I may do a quick small project or two in my TWOK or TUC builds, or even dabble in some 2001: A Space Odyssey modeling. Hell, i could even finish my Ds9-era Klingon BoP bridge, since I last left it so close to being done). I've wanted to polish up some of my exisiting TWOK era stuff for some time now, so I may end up doing that for a minute.
God. There's just not enough time to do everything I want to do!
I don't want to take too long of a break from the TOS project, as I don't want to end up losing all motivation for it. It's just....nice to breathe for a minute.
Stay tuned...

You're allowed to breathe for a minute, Donny. Enjoy your time off.
I for one would mind you doing something from 2001. It will probably end up better than mine and than I would have to do it again to match your standard
Just kidding . Enjoy some time off.
Or, it just the view from a deck above that has grated flooring.
Where can I see your 2001 stuff?I for one would mind you doing something from 2001. It will probably end up better than mine and than I would have to do it again to match your standard
Also, if anyone’s interested, I’ve settled on making the Enterprise-A bridge as seen in TUC while I take a break from the TOS project. I’ll also be making the parts to make an Excelsior bridge while I’m at it. ;-) I’ve always wanted to do a super-realistic model of those bridges and the inspiration is high right now.
I’ll post some shots in my Enterprise-A thread once I get done something worthy of showing
Here’s that thread if anyone is interested in reviewing:

I'm posting WIP pictures on SciFi meshes http://www.scifi-meshes.com/forums/showthread.php?82576-2001-Space-Odyssey-interiors
Heads up! Posted this weekend's work on the Enterprise-A bridge over on the old thread featuring my TUC project. I'll probably be working on the bridge for the next month or two so head on over and subscribe to keep up with progress, if you're interested.

Hey Donny, have you worked out the refractive geometry of the red alert indicators? There's a discussion on another board about them...

I know you finished the Galileo already, but I just came across this awesome reference art.
