Re: Enterprise NX-01 Refit

So not a lot to show for this update but here goes anyway...

I wanted to brighten the longer windows along the saucer rim so I inserted 2 fibers, each about half inch long, into each window opening to grab some light from nearer the center of the saucer.

I pushed them in so the ends sat just inside the opening:

I then cut little teeny window panes out of clear styrene sheet:

I glued each window pane into the opening with Elmers clear craft glue:

Yeah...I like the illumination level better now:

I love the little blue and red lights at the front of the cowl:

The view from above. I trimmed off the fibers on the upper saucer and did some cleanup on each one:

Keep in mind I still haven't gotten around to spraying her with her final grey coat yet.
