Delta-3 base - a photo on Flickriver

Delta-3 base

            Prefabricated, fully sealed outposts were one way that allowed the Federation rapid expansion onto new worlds. These surface bases provided hubs for exploratory vehicles, and often contained larger scientific instruments for analysis that would be impractical to carry on mobile laboratories. Once a planet's atmosphere had been properly measured, tested, and transformed, less stringently sealed construction could occur on the surface, and these outposts could then be recycled for further use on new frontiers.

I started this build with the idea of building something entirely studs up using large panel pieces so beloved of later classic space sets. I got quite far, but I couldn't resist when closing up the back using more modern techniques, to maintain certain symmetries. Still, I'm happy with how clean this build came out. On the rear, I like the windows with horse hitchings! It has a full interior, which I will also try to capture. 

40 years of classic space!
