What are your "carrot pics" of, Chris Lee?
Once you get started, alot of the pieces could be cookie "cuttered"(please excuse my massacre of the English language), as many of the parts would be identical. Also, to increase popularity, production cost and increase the number of buyers you might consider two configurations: One a full version, and one a starboard only half version, so as not to obscure the model on both sides. Also leave some internal cavities/hollow tubing as I'd love to be able to run A/C through it to power ship lighting. A hollow extension arm connected to the side saucer docking bay like the one in TMP(but switched to the starboard side(or side-switchable) would be of great help. That way both the structure and the ship could be hung from a decent height ceiling and thin A/C wiring feed through the ceiling to power both the Dock LED's and the ship by plugging into the Dock structure.
An inconspiculously wired, powered and lighted Dock and 1/350th Enterprise suspended from the ceiling where the wife/girlfriend can never bitch that it's taking up too much space!
