Star Trek The Next Generation - U.S.S. Pasteur (Work In Progress)

A little more progress on my build of the Olympic-class USS Pasteur, as seen in the Star Trek: The Next Generation finale "All Good Things..."

The main forms are now pretty well established and I've started working my way through the secondary shapes and smaller details.

One of the bigger challenges with this ship has been reference. There are several published drawings and later recreations of the Pasteur, but they don't always agree with each other, particularly around the warp nacelles. Even Bill George's original design drawings differ quite significantly from the finished filming miniature.

For this build I'm therefore trying to use the original studio miniature as the primary reference, filling in the gaps with production material and published reference where necessary.

Still plenty left to build before I even think about UVs and textures, but the wonderfully strange silhouette of the Pasteur is finally starting to come together.

More soon!
