USS Paxton NCC- 1955 Escort ship, similar in size to a Perimeter Action Ship
The Basic Shape will be made using a 1/537 Reliant chopped and trimmed (saw one on Facebook looked like a cool conversion)
It has an under hull Navigation Deflector
The saucer mounted Nav deflector was made for the Connie so you have to trim a bit more on the Reliant then fill in the gaps. (Unfortunately while I was cutting I snapped the hull down one of the grid lines that had to be glued back together)

Looks good. Not so much on the shuttlebays, but that's what you get for a patrol escort. And I just ♥ the navigational deflector.
There are Times, Sir, when men of good Conscience cannot blindly follow orders. You acknowledge their sentience, but ignore their personal liberties and freedoms. Order a man to hand over his child to the state? Not while I"m captain.

Re: USS Paxton NCC - 1955
Day off today so even though I'd been at work all night I thought not much can go wrong
basic shape is looking good, still some sealing and sanding to do and the new B deck is fitted
after I glued the sides on I realised I had made a mistake due to tiredness
I haven't put the Impulse deflection crystals in so I have to work out what to do
At least the underside is looking how I want

Really cool ship!
I'm guessing a tribute to Bill Paxton?
