It took me ages to build this model. Not because it's so hard, but because of the lack of reference materials. I had to fill up some parts with some own designs, following the lines of my AltDefiant. Well, after about three months and completing many other projects during the run, I present you the Norway class USS Budapest. Like my home city she was named after, she's a pain in the ass build, but once done, the result is not too bad, I think.
Had a lot of great roleplaying adventures on a Norway-class called USS Dublin back when I played in the IRC chat division of Star Trek: A Call to Duty. Dublin had many great players/writers back then, and was specced as a ship built for diplomacy, science, and light patrol duty. Thanks for the small, but good dose of nostalgia.
