Richard Long is an artist that amazes me with his talents. Seen here is his fully scratch built studio scale Klingon K’Tinga Cruiser that is an exact replica of the model used in Star Trek The Motion Picture! This is the first ever replica made in the world as this model has eluded some of the best model makers over time due to it’s many part’s having to be identified from the many kits bashed in it’s creation. With assistance from some of those famed modelers, Richard was able to bring it all together as it should be. Collector Dr. Clay Brown must be completely ecstatic with this piece. I must admit to being a bit jealous. The studio K’Tinga is one of my personal ‘grail’ items to have displayed in the collection here. Congratulations to Richard and Clay!
