USS Defiant NX-74205

Deep Space Nine's rough and tumble answer to the Dominion Threat. She is, indeed, as Commander Riker put it "a tough little ship."

While painted based on my interpretations of the kit instructions, this one was glued together and rigged for lighting. I managed, for the most part, to avoid the need for transparent parts by placing the bulb right behind the section to be lit.
While the base for this kit is along the same lines as the one for the Enterprise-B and E, I was able to run the wiring up the sides with little difficulty.

All in all, I was very pleased with how the kit turned out, especially since I was building another Defiant for a friend at the same time.
