For most of the 7 years it sat in a corner: a small desk model of the USS Horizon mounted on stained wood w/ a (then current Comm-Badge) on the base. Built by Greg Jien for the show (or for something else but it wound up in Sisko's office eitherway); kit by Steven Nieson; build by Stephen Dymszo.Shiny, solid metal Comm-Badge just pinned to the wood.Revell styrene SRBs used for more accuracy.Painted LED used instead of Greg's blob of glue.Most windows made into proper rectangles.U.S.S. Horizon off-center as on Sisko's model;Rub-down Letraset letters used to attach ships name in proper scale.Clear acrylic rod used to support ship, as on original.Steve D. did another fantastic, more than you could ask for, more than you expect, buildup of thisprop. It was a great show, and this prop makes the show a little bit more 'real' to me than just your standard Cardy doorbell or Breen/ Bajoran/ Federation/ Jem Ha'dar phaser or tricorder.THanks to both Steve's; and of course Matt for inspiring Greg in the 1st place
