Hey D-Whale, I love those stands you have. Are they all custom made?
I'd like to see more models include display stands. I hope you'll reconsider including it or releasing your stands as separate kits.

Great job on the Bajoran ship (and the others too). The little runabout is an excellent addition to display, well worth the effort.

Congrats,

Steve

Hi Steve!
The stand for the bajoran ship is selfmade but not in the kit inclusive! The reason for that is copyright laws! the same for the stand of the Klingon Bloodwing!

the stand for both cardassians, for the Vorcha and for Martin Saenger his Grissom is in the kits inclusive! The stand of the Constellation Class is also in the kit, but my one is a little bit different!

Greetings
Marko

You may be twitching, but it looks great! At least you only have to do them once, then mirror, then triplicate.

Thanks guys!
cmags, the mirroring top to bottom is only halfway correct. The main arm connecting the docking ring to the hub is not level but at a slight downward angle, thus a little alteration was needed. Just enough to cause serious headache in the modeling process.

Well, we all love pics, so here's another one. Just the docking ring left to do!

**cMags** · #87 07-31-2010, 07:31 AM

I meant mirror to the other side of the arm(s), I figured that the top and bottom would be minorly different. But you can do one side of the arm, and one sixth of the docking ring, then mirror it to the other side and have a third done, then triplicate it. Gotta love symmetry. Cut's your work down by almost 80% (just keep positive thoughts)! lol :p

Really nice work so far. I'm looking forward to this.
