I know you've talked about having worked professionally on scale models in the
past-- the Nautilus from 20,000 LEAGUES, etc.-- so I was wondering if you have
any contacts or any websites I could go to where I could find someone who
builds models for hire.

I'd love to have a model of an Imperial Star Destroyer like this one...

....but I have neither the modeling skill, the equipment, nor the electrical
knowledge to put something like this together and light it up properly. If I
could find someone local who could build it and light it for me, I'd be
willing to pay a decent amount of quatloos for it.

I would imagine that this being the land of movies and all, there are probably
such people around, but I have no idea how to find them. Google keeps leading
me to models of the Victoria's Secret variety, which while not altogether
unpleasant, doesn't solve my problem.
