Just in case you don't get over to HOG Memorial GB, here's some shots of my display only entry, Starship HOG.

I started off with a couple of old model stand bases for the saucer section, a hand vac nozzle for the secondary hull and two cigar tubes for the engines. Before paint and decals it looked like this:

After paint and some Star Trek decals, the U.S.S. HOG, NCC-585 was born.

Nice work Brian, and I am sure the man himself would be most flattered to have such an excellent piece of craftsmanship named after him :cheers:

Y'know, just seeing the pics of the finished model, I thought you'd built some OOB Startrek model that I was unaware of! :D  Nice job.
