Deflector dish and decorating
A 25cm diameter circle was marked out with a drawing compass on some 6mm foam sheet. I “sponge painted” it blue and cut it out with a cutter knife. This piece was put on a seat to shape it, but this time rolling was done with a jumping ball, making a dish shape. Keep rolling the different of the dish areas to obtain a regular shape.
A 4cm x 4cm piece of double sided tape is used to attach the back of the dish to the main hull.

To cover the “Zeppelin NT” print on the nacelles, the “NCC-1701-Z” inscription needs to be large enough. Printing it diagonally on an A3 sheet just managed that. I used the “Enterprise” True Type Font. The inside print was covered with a cut out from some spare foil. All decorations ar stuck in place with small pieces of double sided tape.
