I heard from a friend that issue #4 of Starlog Press' old Star Trek: The Next Generation Official Magazine (1988) has images of an Enterprise-D miniature that looks like the two-footer. Details on the miniature shown in the magazine apparently differ in a lot of ways from the six-footer, but the model looks too "finished" to be a mere study model.

Does anyone have access to that issue and a scanner?

Don�t take this the wrong way, but never ever post a scan of THAT ;-)

Oh, have no fear... he'd never find a scanner with a high enough resolution. B)

He'd model it to make it bigger... 1/2500th scale [Big Grin]

Cartman gets a point for geekiness iwth his "scanner resolution" gag but Andrew gets the penny for bringing up "2500th scale".

What's this thread about again?

Actually, just me wanting to see the two-footer galaxy model. To see what was different to the six-footer...Ah, well..

If you get the pic and there really are obvious diffrences, photoshop "USS Trinculo" on it and pass it off as authentic evidence of the "non-ship". [Big Grin]
