    I've made hundreds of model kits, developed techniques for hiding seams, repairing molds, improving windows and glass, and thought myself pretty darned good. I feel like someone who barely knows how to walk watching someone fly. This is, by far, the most incredible build I've seen!

    It just keeps getting more and more jaw-dropping. I'm struggling to find the right words here, but bear with me - before this, the show was the show, what we saw is what happened. Now, for me, there's the beginnings of some context in which I can see (for example) characters walking along a corridor on screen, and I can actually picture in my mind's eye, the scale of the ship around them - and imagine a much richer, much more vivid picture of what's not shown. Maybe for some people they could already picture this clearly in their heads, but for me, this model has helped cement a new appreciation for the ship. And it's not even halfway built yet! Amazing work.

    This is still so awesome. I love how the bridge and all the interiors of the test models are coming along, those stairs are beautiful. I did notice a few mistakes. The bridge module had an extra deck that was meant to be in the saucer and the saucer is way too short when you look at the thickness of the saucer and the size of the bridge module.

    • @gregorydahl

      I saw it that way too . Might be that egg shaped bubble deck under the bridge only . Its at 9:50 . Too big a bump thing on top . Cardboard and tape crew to bubbke bump deck 5 . Report for recon.

    In the U.S. Navy, they aren't usually called stairs. They are usually called ladders. Most are only wide enough to have a single person climb up or slide down. For compartmentalized decks, they would be able to be airlocks and be able to be sealed with hatches. Aside from that, I can find no real faults with what you have built if I had the money I would try and probably fail to build that and a huge metal building to keep it in on display on my property.

      Mr Sulu was at the helm and Mr Scott was monitoring weather patterns, so at no time was the ship in any danger! Thanks for watching! ;-)

    Don't forget the platform steps from the Captain's chair - Helm control level, up to the Science, Engineering & Communications stations. This is a FANTASTIC MODEL ! ! ! ! 🙂 L.L.A.P. ! 🙂
