Title: 6 Foot Enterprise model
Post by: Rico on December 11, 2011, 03:30:03 PM
I couldn't recall if anyone has posted this before.  This is a completely scratch built, 6 foot model of the movie, refit Enterprise.  Words can't describe how much work went into this and how beautiful it all turned out.  Simply amazing!

That is awesome. I can understand why he has had to put supports under the dish section.

I am stunned by the absolute craftsmanship. He built the freakin' Rec Room for crying out loud! It makes me sad models are barely used anymore in motion pictures.

Beautiful!  I wish I had the skills to do something like this.  Actually, I'd be happy to have the skills to put together the Polar Lights version and have it look cool.

Also, on Drex files, there's an article on a guy who built a 6-foot TOS Enterprise, it's pretty sweet.
