Taking cardboard where no wood fibre product has gone before!
These continue to look great. I'll be looking forward to hearing how the Excelsior fares in battle.
BTW, I may be wrong, but I believe the STO stuff is actually 'canon' – at least, the post-TNG stuff is.
I know what you mean about fiddling with contrast etc to get the right look for a printed miniature. It can have a lot to do with your printer's settings, too. Hi-res or photo settings will always come out darker, for example, because they assume a denser or coated paper (like photo paper) is used, and really load up the ink. 'Economy' or 'Text' settings will usually be more frugal with the inks, and thus, provide a lighter image.
Having been printing my own decals, I've discovered there's only so much you can do inside the computer, and its equally important to know the ins and outs of my printer as well.
Only took me a few dozen pages of decal film to work that out… O_o
