Thank you. It looks far better in person, believe me. Love/hate cameras.
It will live in my house when not on display (likely exhibit it at the Phoenix Comicon at least once). I'm building it modular, so storage is not an issue, believe it or not.
Decks can be removed individually (except the 'Neck' pylon, I made the decision to hardglue those decks to each other for support and you could see both sides anyway) for viewing.
I will be skinning it with removable hull plates so it can be completely closed or displayed half open on one side or any mixture of the two.
I'm also considering doing a set of "battle damage" plates just for kicks.
Thanks for the encouragement, guys.
Things have been kinda... well, I don't want to say "black", let's call it grey... lately. Lots of irons in the fire, so every bit helps.
Be back soon. Really want to start work on the warp nacelles and put those plasma balls to good use.
