I'd be thrilled to have a basement! I have a tiny 10x10 foot room that is so filled with crap that I can only move in a 3x3 foot space... and that is only when I want to sit in my chair! I'll have to take newer pics showing what it looks like now.

OK I HATE Polar Lights decals... they are just terrible. They snap and cannot conform to any shape. I don't like doing decals to begin with, but wow...

It looks ok though:

Hey that came out well!

Remind me again where this version of the Enterprise came from?

Wow that looks sharp!

Lol The USS Excelsior originally was in Star Trek Search For Spock. The later version had a different bridge, shuttle bay and was NCC 2000 not NX 2000. I liked the Search for Spock version better.
HOWEVER When the Excelsior class was used for the Enterprise-B, in Star Trek Generations, they made some huge modifications. I will post a picture of my ent-b with my excelsior. Just for you Stuart
Thanks Keavdog

That looks real sharp! The decal work came out looking mighty fine… even if they did fight you.

Thanks Stik!

That is a most impressive starship Declan! Way to go; it look like you conquered those decals despite the stiffness and inflexibility.

Thanks Duke! This has been in the works for... 2 months now I think? I was considering getting the aztec decals to do the ships panelling... but considering the decals that CAME with the kit... I think I would have shot myself into space.

This is for Stuarts reference but anyone interested, heres this:

As you can see here, the secondary hull had a more boat like appearance on the Enterprise B (Right)

Here you can see the Enterprise B had extra impulse engines.

The Enterprise B had different caps on the ends of the nacelles. You can see the Excelsior has smooth fronts, where the Enterprise has a blue rib in it.

And the shuttle bay at the back was the same as the Star Trek 6 Excelsior, but different from the Star Trek 3 version.

So while the ship I have made isn't the Enterprise, you can see that the same class was used later in the movies, but varied from the original layout.
