The completed model should eventually be on display somewhere like the Smithsonian, where it can be admired and appreciated by millions of visitors every year for its grandeur, attention to details, and painstaking creativity in conceiving and completing such an auspicious project! This project is truly at the heart of how Star Trek has been an inspiration to so many people and generations around the world for almost 60 years! Bravo and thank you for taking us along on this amazing mission!
Well, Mr. Trek, many people build model railroads, some build dioramas, but you are the one guy, the one guy, that's building a starship! Nicely done. BTW. Don't forget to add the "cobra head" detail to the left of the power chamber in engineering...
@@dough1968GMC For me Star Trek ended with the end of Enterprise in 2005. The Kurtzman stuff is actually hatred of Trek just like Kathleen Kennedy hates Star Wars. They're just demolition jobs on what people love. But they fail because we can still watch it all on DVD!
WOW! The detail, and the commitment that you put into this project are absolutely amazing! Talk about the ultimate Star Trek Fan! TRULY a labor of love! When completed, I see a wonderful tourist attraction in your future! Live Long and Prosper!
I can only say great. This is truly a labor of love and te attention to detail is amazing. I do wish you let the pictures stay up longer than the reading time. As soon as I finished reading the description, the picture changes.
I admire so much what you've done. I am just awe struck. you're talented and so detailed in your work. I might have a tear coming out of my eye. I'm not sure.🙂
I second that. You seem to have also recreated some of the classic camera angles and even the set lighting from the original show. Gave me chills viewing your modelling because it is so evocative of the original Star Trek. "Well done" doesn't begin to capture it, but it'll have to do for now.
Amazing! I watched the show during its first run when I was in elementary school, and the Enterprise has been etched into my psyche ever since. Bravo! A magnificent job!
@@mrtrek2117 I would like to build the Enterprise model similar to the Enterprise your building, but how do you start a project like that?, any tips please
Every video I’m in awe of the level of detail. It’s always hard to get an idea of how big she would be, but many of these pics really put it into perspective. Gene would be one VERY proud man for sure!!!
@@paulygon4545 oh yes- that’s the plan. It’s very very basic right now. But I need to master the CAD drawing to enable 3D printing. And if I share I’ll have to a video to UA-cam
Speechless, it’s magnificent. Absolutely stunning, beautiful. It is exquisite. The detail, the incredible effort. Just wow. I don’t know what else to say other than live long and prosper, and may the wind be ever at your back.
You are so dedicated to this build, and we thank you for taking us on this journey as well. You are an inspiration to us all. Good luck for the future. I am sure we will be with you all the way. King regards from NZ.
I was in 6th grade when the original Star Trek started. I still watch it on Saturday nights from Chicago. You did an amazing job in recreating the Enterprise. Thank you for sharing your dream.
Glory to You and Your House, Mr. Trek!!! Qapla!! - Qapla' (Success!) Usage: To be exclaimed victoriously after your first full conversation with a Klingon
I admire your scale modeling abilities. I wish your project great success and earns you a place among the greatest model builders out there in the past, present and future. I look forward to the day when Enterprise is completed and ready to reach for the stars. Thank you for your hard work!!
Wow! Your attention to detail is incredible. The photos look like real rooms. It's a level of realism you just can't get with CGI models. For the first time, we're seeing a "real" version of every room in the whole Enterprise! What a privilege! Great choice of music here too.
Ohhhh . .it's a MODEL model, a real thing and not CGI . . .nice. This takes me back to my youth and the hours I spent botching up Airfix and Revell kits . . . . Awesome work by the way, looks amazing 🤩
I would never of thought that unfolded pizza boxes could be turned into a work of art. I especially didn't know manufacturers sold all white pizza boxes lol.
I just happened to come across this video. I just simply don't have the words to describe how much I was blown away by the detail and quality of this. To take on a task of this size is just incredible in itself. While watching this I was taken back to my youth and the early days of these episodes. Makes me want to pull out the series and get to watching again. Thank you so much for this and I will be following your progress for I am so eager to see what becomes of this. SUBSCRIBED!!!
Thank you , thank you , thank you. This video was amazing! The work you do is incredible. I can't even wait to see the finished product. I know, I know, there's still along way to go. I'll (not so) patiently wait for it to happen. Every update brings us one step closer to what I know will end up being masterpieces.
Fascinating. Really interesting what you are accomplishing. It's going to be beautiful. Can't wait to see the finished ship. Sir you are a very talented guy. Thank you for sharing your ship building skills with us. LLAP
This is ALL so amazing!! Even the detail on the early models was VERY impressive!! I am humbled by your talent, patience and tenacity in completing what must have taken thousands of man-hours (for the larger models); WELL DONE, Mr Trek!! Could this be your OWN, 5-year mission??
Interesting bexause I didn’t know there was that much room for shuttles with mutile rooms kn same deck. This really helps me visualize the ship; thanks
@Mr Trek - No doubt, Matt Jefferies would be proud! Thank so much for your pure skill and emotion in this audacious life-long project. Simply, Fantastic / 'Fascinating' 🖖
This is amazing, while I know its not your fault but I swear everyone builds the OG Enterprise, I would love to see a big one like this of Enterprise D. But you are so good at this, thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the input, but I have to correct you, maybe everyone builds the OG Enterprise, but no one has ever built the entire interior of the ship! Also you talk about wanting to see someone build a big ship like the Enterprise D so I'm not sure you realise just how big the original ship was, it was huge, but not overly huge like the D.
Thank you for taking me back on childhood dreams wondering & dreaming about being on the enterprise soaring threw space to distant galaxy's and lands....
Merci du partage de cet énorme travail de reconstitution! Je vous souhaite une récompense bien mérité pour un tel boulot! Comme par exemple que votre maquette une fois finie puisse se retrouver dans un musée, et fasse venir beaucoup de monde! Stéph.

Would be cool to have it displayed in Ticonderoga NY with the original set tour. 👏🏽
Wish I could show this to my dad. He had drawn up plans for a model of the enterprise around this size but he never really got it going.
oh is he alive?
@@IchigoKurosakicool He passed little over a year ago.
@@ClumzorZ Sorry to hear that, May he Rest in Peace.
I'm so glad there are people in the world willing to do cool things like this. Great work. This is amazing.

BTW. Don't forget to add the "cobra head" detail to the left of the power chamber in engineering...
Thank you so much. The cobra head in engineering, I hear you, got it! ;-)
This is more realistic Trek than what Kurtzman and Abrams is trying to do. Excellent work!
Kurtzman and Jar Jar NEVER Did Real Trek!
@@dough1968GMC For me Star Trek ended with the end of Enterprise in 2005. The Kurtzman stuff is actually hatred of Trek just like Kathleen Kennedy hates Star Wars. They're just demolition jobs on what people love. But they fail because we can still watch it all on DVD!
@@ingurlund9657 100% Agree!
Kurtzman
Kathleen
Kennedy.
This is crazy. The world needs more wonderful crazy like this.
I showed this to my 82yr old mother. She watched the show. Amazing work
I love that, hope she enjoyed the gallery! Say hi to your mother from me! Thank you!
@@mrtrek2117 will do
For all of its scale and grandeur, I simply can't get over the consoles and tiny details. I can hear all the ambient background noises, I swear!
WOW! The detail, and the commitment that you put into this project are absolutely amazing! Talk about the ultimate Star Trek Fan! TRULY a labor of love! When completed, I see a wonderful tourist attraction in your future! Live Long and Prosper!
Really appreciated, thank you!
absolutely amazing my friend!!!! flat out AMAZING!!!
LIVE Long and Prosper!!
What a tremendous, job you, did. Just, awesome.
Thank you!
I can only say great. This is truly a labor of love and te attention to detail is amazing. I do wish you let the pictures stay up longer than the reading time. As soon as I finished reading the description, the picture changes.
Thanks for the suggestion, but do remember, there is always the pause button.
even the older models are crazy detailed. what the heck man.
And this is what makes Star Trek what it really is, Something to inspire people to achieve what others think impossible.
Your attention to detail is amazing . Keep up the awesome work 😎🖖
Matt Jefferies would be proud to see a huge replica of his Uss Enterprise star ship by a fan
I admire so much what you've done. I am just awe struck. you're talented and so detailed in your work. I might have a tear coming out of my eye. I'm not sure.🙂
Wonderful work. Superb photos too MrTrek. Loved the dynamic angles and real sense of the scale. Awesome
Very much appreciated, thank you!

Not only are they great as TV scenes, many of the shots remind me of how _good_ modern architecture is supposed to look.
Been a Trekkie since day one and now I’m 70 and still enjoy it! GREAT WORK
Me too
@@Mike-ye6cq Same here … going to be 72 next month
my TREKKER friend, you have done a most magical and spectacular job!!!
Thank you very much!
Your commitment to this is beyond words sir.🤯
You deserve a LOT more likes. Wow
Thank you!
This is so cool! I didn't think I'd watch the entire 13+minute video but I couldn't look away! Great job and a huge undertaking!
That means a lot, very encouraging, thank you!
Amazing! I watched the show during its first run when I was in elementary school, and the Enterprise has been etched into my psyche ever since. Bravo! A magnificent job!
Very inspiring work. Thank you!
That first transporter room look really good
Truly a labor of love. The amount of thought and engineering required to achieve this is just astounding.
You should show these in museums or such venues across the country! Absolutely fabulous!
I have to admit, I'm slowly turning our control room at work into the bridge of the enterprise. This may be contagious.
Excellent work!
That model of the Enterprise is awesome
Thank you so much!

This was so epic. Thanks for inspiring me with a 1.82m 25:1 scale Rocinante. It’ll take years to realise owing to the day job
Are you working on the interior? Share? 🖖
@@paulygon4545 oh yes- that’s the plan. It’s very very basic right now. But I need to master the CAD drawing to enable 3D printing. And if I share I’ll have to a video to UA-cam
This will need to go into a Sci-fi/Movie museum or something. Just incredible 😊
Thank you very much! Appreciated!

Amazing work! I really thank you it is so nice to be "part" of the progress of this huge model!
Stunning work. Can’t wait to see it for real!
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this video. Absolutely fantastic. The attention to detail, the raw skill, the patience. Well done, indeed! 🖖
Thank you very much!
It just needs the three seashells in the bathroom. It's clear you put a lot of time and effort into this, well done.
Top job.Eye for detail.As always.Loving the build.Stay strong keep at it.👍🇬🇧🏴🫶

Thank YOU for sharing your PASSION and extraordinary build of a ship we ALL LOVE SO MUCH!
I hope your proud, of your, build. I am. Must of been costly, but your gonna get a lot of recognition, for this.
I do admire the level of dedication and work here. Can't help but feel the music gives the whole thing a sad and whimsical overtone.
Thank you for the tour! Excellent work!
My pleasure, thank you for the comment!
F'N AMAZING! Well done. Someone who sees this will to a fully 3D printed version as well!
It's just epic! All the way through!

Thank you!
Fascinating. Really interesting what you are accomplishing. It's going to be beautiful. Can't wait to see the finished ship. Sir you are a very talented guy. Thank you for sharing your ship building skills with us. LLAP
Some of the sets actually look real in the closeup shots. Such amazing work. You are more machine than man!

Your 1/25th scale model may inspire and be adapted in the future as we continue the human trek. Live long and prosper, your fan from New Mexico USA
Lot of respect for those that still honor the original series 🫡
Amazing! You must have a lot of patience, determination, and a steady hand to have done such incredible work like this.
I had always imagined that the windows above the shuttle hangar were air- I mean space traffic control.
Impresive work a faithful to the original show
Very impressive reimagining.
Truly remarkable! Exquisite attention to detail! Amazing project 👏👏👏
Thank you very much!
Simply awesome! Great work!
Thank you!
It’s 1967 and I am seven again and on Saturday night watching Trek all over again. Superb work.
Magical! Thank you very much!
Absolutely awesome. Seeing you in some of photos gave great reference for the scale, perfect. 👍👍👍
Awesome. It's going to be an epic accomplishment when complete, I'm glad to be a small part of it.
Awesome, thank you!
Imagine using this beauty as a filming model❤❤❤❤
Interesting bexause I didn’t know there was that much room for shuttles with mutile rooms kn same deck.
