BUILDING DEEP SPACE NINE
(Picture of the studio model used for publicity by Paramount)
The project will be consisting of 5 phases Just to give you an idea of the size of this model, the studio model is 6ft in diameter! Now that's 6ft across all the way around the model. This model will be the same size which will be considered as TRUE studio scale!! I will be posting pictures of the project as I go from design to completion.
Please check back weekly as I will be updating the site with pictures and video.

Deep Space Nine:
According to Rick Sternbach (as posted in rec.models.scale):
"The station basic color is a medium warm gray-brown, about 5.5 value
(0=black, 10=white). The machinery insets are primer red and yellow ochre, and
the insets on the edge thrusters are cobalt blue"
and the model was
"schmutzed up with washes of a darker yuck brown."
Modeler Roger Sorensen suggests
"mixing gunship gray and med. brown, maybe 2:1. Details on the station
appear to be yellow and dark violet."
