Here are a couple more.  These from IPMS/Atlanta.




Hey, that's my Flying Sub before it got put on the diorama.  (See my post earlier in this thread.)  I forgot that someone had photographed it and put it on the web when I took it in to a meeting.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

More of a Luft 46 then Sci fi .
Try and guess the big corporate sponsor.



Looks like Weyland-Yutani, the "Company" that sponsored the colonization of LV-426 in Aliens.

And you are correct. I had someone I know make me the decals for my model. It;s to bad I didn't enter it in this years Wonderfest since "Alien" was the theme this year

Here is another one I built a few years ago. The story behind this one is the Klingons wanted a ship tat could stand up to repeated Dominion attacks and still deliver a good fight back at them.



I mated an x-wings nose to the aft section of a D-7 and added greilies to add detail.there are parts of an ALQ-119 ECM pod,parts from an AMT Enterprise,A center console from a car kit,a twizzle stick and an HO scale tank trurret for the bridge.

Here is another one from Wonderfest 2007 that was built by someone else from a D-7 kit.

A modified Romul;an Warbird from the old original AMT Star Trek 3 ship set. I removed the engines and replaced them with a pair of 1/48th scale ALQ-119 ECM pods for a newer look. They came from the ESCI weapons set in 1/48th scale.

Another 2009 Wonderfest entry of a modified Klingon K'tinga.

Anthony,
Yep, know about them and Culttvman but want to post the non mainstream builds which are more whiff than the Enterprise or Luke's X-Wing.
