Um, WOW. Everything about this looks well thought out. All the living
spaces are minifig navigable & comfortable looking; all the exterior &
interior surfaces are well designed & decorated. The external angled-plate
construction technique forms a very attractive & realistic looking ship.
Even the floors are greebled; never woulda thought of that one, but there
they are. The curved-slope piece works well for the sink in the head,
especially with the small depressed area molded into the piece. Lego should
make a cool printing/sticker for that piece & sink use (i’d like to see it in
an official model-it’s such a good piece usage). Great microscope/scanner
in sicbay too. Great use of the baseplate for the shuttlebay. I thought it
would be cool to substitute another 1x1x1 brick with 5 studs for the bottom
1x1x1 cylinder brick on the shuttlebay toolbot; the 2 multistud bricks could
be twisted 45 degrees from each other to fit more (8) tools on the bot. The
custom bridge screen decals(?) even follow the classic space computer design
ethic to a ‘T’. It has a very ‘Enterprise’/’early Trek’ feel to it-I think
that’s GREAT. Very clean & stylish design. Is there any interior detail,
crawlspaces or engine coils in the engines? Well played.
