Wow, thank you! It's not without it's flaws but i'm really happy with it so far, I just hope the rest of the ship turns out just as well. Thanks bud  :)




My eyes have crossed and un-crossed so many times it's hard to know which way is left sometimes!  :p




Thanks dude, lets hope the next 34 don't let those previous ones down...!




Wow...again! Thanks Solander  8) Check out Ian Lawrence's (Raytheon) 1/650 Enterprise E...that thing is ridiculous! The aztec job he did on that is (in my opinion) unbeaten so far, go check it out




That's what all those sheets of paper are for...???!! Cobblers! I thought they were just for reference!  :D


Thanks Dave (I think!?) ;) ;D


I couldn’t wait any longer to see how the lighting would look with the aztecs so I cracked on with the details around the captains yaught, painted the window recesses on the lower surface and painted the outer rim of the saucer



Then the whole lot got misted over with a light blue/grey to blend the tones slightly and give it a more blue-ish colour in general. The window masks are trickier to remove than I thought, took a couple of hours just to get half of the top surface masks off...! Quite a few have totally disappeared under the layers of paint and quite a few pulled up a bit more paint than they should, leaving slightly oversized windows. I’ll just have to go back over and touch up any bad spots, no biggie.


Anyhoo, here’s some unlit and lit shots



Again, cheers guys for all the great compliments.


Soong
