USS Santee Starfleet Escort Carrier

So... I've spent the last couple of months playing with Bones' Sherman model.

Thanks to the addition of some custom parts, here's my WIP:

She still needs some detail work and the files need a serious revamping before they can be shared, but I'm pleased with her so far.

Could you post a build thread when you get this design perfected?

It would sure be nice to see not only how Bone's kit goes together, but also your updating of this to meet the remastered versions.

Will you be posting the primary hull soon?


Great work and thanks for the evolution of Bone's work!

Yes to all of the above, though I'm extremely reluctant to make any promises on delivery dates....

I'll be patient. This is an exciting project.

What parts have you completed so far?

I've completed the new warp nacelles and pylons, the connection between the hulls, some minor detailing and the new crew habitat.

I'm not (yet) happy with the bridge and sensor domes, and I need to decide on the flight deck appearance and hangar access. The forward (partially recessed) deflector housing has me momentarily stumped. I also need to sort through and decide which platforms/greeblies I want to include from Bones' original model.

I'll get there, it'll just take a bit of tinkering and swearing.

Lets see some pics.

I'd like to see your design process and how your are adapting things.

This is a great and interesting project and a great use of Bones' kit!
