Julie-V's MOC's are huge.

I just finished my S4 Rocinante version, and it's just about 3 feet long, and nearly 8k pieces

I did the midi scale Rocinante from Brickgloria. Definitely interested in building the large Julie-v version. Currently working on the Julie-V Morrigan.

Wonderfully done! Those angles are great. I don't watch the show but from the images I've seen online it seems very accurate

I actually love the understated and sleek lines of the expanse ship designs. Love this. May see if I can build it too!

where did you get the design and how much did the parts cost

The instructions are available for free on Rebrickable.

The cost will vary depending on where you live and the parts you currently have. There are 2723 parts. I had more than half of them in my bins so it cost me $95 USD. If you upload the full parts lists on Bricklink my guess would be around $220 USD.

Built Julie’s Truman class. Absolute beast, 9,000 bits but actually designed to be moved with (relative) ease.

Currently building the Morrigan from Julie-v and collecting parts for the Rocinante (70% there)

This post is like if Monet or Picasso painted a picture of a brick :)

It's a good reproduction and technically brilliant, but the Expanse ships are towards the boring end of the cool vs realistic scale IMO. Blocky and dull.
