Now that I have finished my Eaglemoss vs. The World article on the K'Tinga Class Battlecruiser (Read that article at THIS LINK.), I decided to share some of my kitbash work that share an ancestry with that ship classification.
As an extra bonus, Eaglemoss eventually produced the D-7 class battle cruiser and you can read my review of the model at THIS LINK.
The K-Tinga Class is the direct descendant of the D-7 Battlecruiser, hence the reason they look a lot alike.
Since I like kitbashing in 1:2500 scale, I have purchased a lot of AMT Round 2 3-Ship sets over the last two years. And because of this, I ended up with a lot of D-7 and K-Tinga kits in my stash. I eventually found some source material that gave me some ideas on what to do with those kits.
While doing some reading about the D-7 design history, I came across a Matt Jeffries set of drawings on Memory Alpha of his different concepts for what this ship was going to look like.
This gave me the idea to try to build a couple of these concept drawings and make them into "real" ships. The reality is, I could have used either the D-7 or the K'Tinga kits for these builds due to the similar body, neck and head structure.
