Glencoe models made a space station kit that looks OK. I picked one up and I
like it. It is in the size you're looking for. Pain in the butt to build,
though. I don't know if it is still in production.

Hi everyone, just started recently and while looking for extra models I
noticed a large (I think 18" or so diameter) DS9 base w/ fibreoptics etc
(lotsa bells and whistles). Hmmm, I think, nice but a tad too big. Does
anybody know if you can get the DS9 starbase model in a size more
appropriate (6"-8" diameter)... I asked the store owner but got a
nothing but a blank look.
On another note, I picked up FT/MT and a reasonable number of Kra'Vak
ships because they looked spiffy... only to find they had special rules that
"most people" considered overpowered. Oh well, anybody interested in some
concept ship designs, I just took the mass of the sample Kra'Vak ships and
crossreffed to the model. Most (except the really little ones) now carry a
number of pulse torps equal to the number of spars on the model, filling in
with mostly C batts (some B and A batts on the largest). The capital ships
mostly carry fighters as well.

I had the same problem with the Galaxy-class Enterprise D. I've seen a
model that's to scale with the other ranges of Star Trek mini. Cost: $80 in
fine pewter. I thought about it, but I just couldn't justify priming and
painting it. Now, if it had been $50...
As a followup on yesterdays question... I was in the local SF&F bookshop
yesterday afternoon and I saw the perfect starbase, DS9 and about 7" diameter.
Unfortunately its in pewter or silver or something and costs $599
:-( As I said to the guy in the store I can't really justify spending
that much just for a model.
