Round number two includes several of the kitbashed ships that I posted about 5 months ago.
Another kitbashed DD using a Zocchi Tug saucer and a custom nacelle made from plastic tubing and green stuff. The USS Thompson:
built
Another one in progress This one is slightly different, having phasers added via epoxy.

A new Scout Cruiser, “evolved” from my kitbashed NCL mini. The USS Crockett.

An SFC inspired Federation Light Cruiser, or perhaps as suggested previously, a Heavy Destroyer. The USS Kirishima.

A kitbash based on the FASA Loknar. My version of the Federation Fast Cruiser, the USS Stingray.

A kitbashed Federation Bismarck Class Battlecruiser. The USS Nikolai V. Ogarkov. This one uses the Zocchi DN mini minus the 3rd nacelle, and rear deflector, and adds the Rollbar from a Micro Machines USS Reliant miniature, which holds the two plasma torpedoes and two of the photons, with the other two in the saucer.

Nice work. I really like the "Texas". The older, "classic" ships have a distinctive appeal. _________________ Commander, Battlegroup Murfreesboro

Great work! Those are looking really nice. It's always fun to see folks trying their own ideas out and making their own take on the ships. The kitbashed ships you did ended up looking terrific once they had their paint jobs and decals. I'd bet they'd fools some folks into thinking they are production minis.
I was especially impressed with your greenstuff work on fabricating your own nacelle for the DD. Pretty skilled work and spiffy results. |
