Polar Lights 1/1000 Star Trek refit Enterprise model

This is my commission build of the Polar Lights 1/1000 Star Trek refit Enterprise model, i have used the brass photo etch set to add more detail such as the Arboretum and the open shuttle bay, i also made a small lighted docking hatch underside of the saucer using tiny magnets to enable the hatch door to be removed easily.
This small model measures only 12" long but i have managed to get a lot of detail on it which makes it look like a much bigger model like the 1/350 scale that measures a huge 34" long!

REVELL 1/600 TOS ENTERPRISE 1701 model kit

This my TOS ENTERPRISE model fully lighted with open shuttle bay, i decided to alter the ship slightly to give it a look which keeps it in the ship linage, for example i made the warp nacelles have a blue power strips similar to the NX01 and blue light emitting from around the deflector dish, i also made the impulse engines look more modern by widening the grills.
The bussard collectors have tiny geared motors that rotate some custom made fan type blades inside that i made.


Here is a short video of it all working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UV5g9JhdFw4
