These are for a commission, and are in scale with a tiny Hallmark ornament.
A little work needed on one of the Keldons. |

Will these be offered for sale? |

The baby Excelsior looks great! I normally collect 1/7000, but these are really neat! |

Will these be offered for sale? No. The person who commissioned them is a collector. Thanks for the comment TWD….. |

Oh…my…goodness. They're terrific! A lot of skill and patience. Well done, sir. |

Teeny indeed! Well done, and don't forget to charge your client for the optometrist's consultation. :) |

I like those and they would fit in well with the 1/20000 stuff I do |

Larry, is there anything that you can't model? Very good job on those. |

Amazing. HOW on earth did you mold them?
What did you use as your starting 'model'?
It reminds me of "Task Force Games Elite" series, all No. started w/ "5000" so I simply refered to it as the 5000 series.
I dont know the actual scale (didnt do the math) but the Fed CA was 1 1/4 in., the D7 just 1 in. I got 'dozens'. Mainly Fed and Klingon.
They made 'only' the Fed CA, Klingon D7, Rom BOP and Gorn CA. Others came later. All came 3 to a pack, but the Gorn-2 being heavier. I managed to come up w DNs, Cl's, and DD's. The Klingon were the easiest for conversion.
i.e. the DN":
I cut out a 1/8 in. of the 'neck' and insert a 1/4 brass tube, made it longer and look bigger.
The Cls and DD's were simply moving the eng.s in and cutting the shape of the command section and bit of the 'wings' off. |
