From the archives comes 3 scratchbuilt starships, with designs borrowed from "The Starfleet Museum" website. First up is the 1/100 scale Minotaur, turned from a solid aluminum cylinder. The rest of the aluminum greeblies were pinned to the main body. A variety of decal sheet colours were used as panels, and Tamiya clear yellow and blue were sprayed on parts of the body:

Thank you so very much Steve for your kind comments. I pay that tribute to some of the best modelmakers in the aerospace industry, who took me under their wings and taught me so many skills that resonate in everything I do...that help me today. I was and am very fortunate. |
