This
is a kit-bashed model of the four-nacelled Constellation Class.
The model was produced using two top saucers, two dorsal 'necks',
two outer pylon halves, and four nacelles from two Enterprise-A
kits Sheet styrene and some various kit parts made up the rest.
The
windows were made the same sizes and shapes as the refit
Constitution Class saucer rim windows. They were gouged into the
surface of the sheet plastic with a Dremel tool. They were
painted Gloss White and Gloss Black.
Decals were from Web Games. Shuttlebay and cargo bay doors were
from Evergreen Plastics.
The
model is overall Model Master Light Gray. The nacelle grills are
Mat Sky Blue with a coat of Horizon Blue to give them a natural
glow when light strikes them.
The damaged sections were scored with the Dremel, and airbrushed
with Flat Black and Navy Aggressor Gray.
The model of the U.S.S. Stargazer in Captain Picard's Ready Room
was kit-bashed in the same fashion as this model. One kit piece
that is the identical part on the Ready Room Stargazer is the angular piece in the
cut-out section at the back of the saucer section. The piece is
the "back" of a 1/100 Battroid model from Macross.
This picture depicts the USS Hathaway concluding a long term
exploration of a white dwarf star.
This scene started out as blue/black difference clouds with a
large lens flare sun slightly higher than center. The Hathaway
was placed in the picture and then other stars, shadows and
navigation lights were added.
The USS Hathaway was built at a shipyard in orbit of Earth's
moon.
