In my ongoing dissatisfaction with the amount of Deco displayed by the hull of the ship, I made yet another set of nacelle exteriors, a rounded off roll bar pod, and gave the ship a Devo hat. (Also, check out that deflector dish.) The stepped look on the upper hull is nifty and it adds a surprising amount of usable volume despite being exactly the same diameter as the original domed hull, but that's because of how thick and chunky it makes the rim of the saucer, so Not Sure If Want.

Probably the best angle while wearing the Devo hat, as it shows off the added lines while minimizing the chunkiness of the saucer rim. The Excelsior style "buffet table" top island is definitely a keeper, it adds just enough space to allow Jeffries access for the main impulse drives to some poor shmuck doesn't have to go EVA and pull off the hull plating or have a workbee dangle him by his underoos in the top of the hangar/workshop while working on them overhead.
I very much want some second opinions about these mods, so sing out, eh?
