SFA is great. It swings, hits hard when it does & the acting and production are absolute top shelf. Holly Hunter goes straight into top 3 Captains, the Athena is a hell of a starship & that Sisko episode?!? Jesus, what a show. Haters seem like great people I’d 100% enjoy meeting at a party.

Nintendo improved on this feature-wise, but the look and feel of this upgrade was just 👨‍🍳👌 So smooth and comfortable. My OG was red but this blue is also beautiful:

A long way from launch, and in need of repair following a severe gravitational anomaly in December. But despite it all, she still gets the pulse racing any day, and double on 17/01. 🖖

Saucer mainly, viewed from the front and slightly above the midline of the ship (nacelles visible, secondary hull and deflector dish obscured by the saucer).

One final bag and boom, ready to launch. A couple of mods I want to make before taking her out but construction is essentially finished. It’s hard to convey just how big this ship is! She’s a beauty

Still only 9 bags in with this 30-bag beauty! I’m thinking about options to mod the deflector that keep that the cool printed piece but make it closer to its onscreen look. A sticker is the obvious solution, but I’m exploring other ideas.
