Where can I find pictures of parts of ships, so I can create my own ships??

Whilst kitbashing is a harmless recreation enjoyed by hundreds around the globe......

Despite all the non-official diagrams floating around, I doubt the Niagara is a kitbash.

I wonder if I should spoil this thread by replying to Frank

Anyway, I don't like kitbashes either. But you can never know...Once I have all available models...

There are very few good (=plausible) fan-designed and built ships. For instance:

Note the text marker nacelles of some ships!

Some links to starship reference sites on my link page:

Is there no-one who can spare me a few cut'n'paste starship parts to make pictures??

I see. If that's what your looking for, visit the Starship design webring. There is one site listed with a cut'n'paste kit, or you could just rip apart some existing schematics:

I do kit bashing too. But usually when i'm done, my ships very seldom look like anything Starfleet would build.

And I have 34 some-odd ships too. One of these days, i'll show some of them too ya'll.
