Re: Enterprise NX-01 Refit

Thanks Q! Got a ways to go yet but getting there, slowly but surely.

Shot her with a 60/40 mix of IJN Sky Grey and Floquil Flat Base thinned with airbrush thinner. The upper saucer went on a little too heavy and needed a little sanding afterwards to bring back some of the paneling so after drying overnight I used some 600 grit on it this morning. Then I used a fairly wide soft brush and some more of the airbrush mix thinned even more and almost dry brushed it on to smooth everything out to a grey uniform texture but with the paneling still faintly visible underneath. I haven't done any fiber snipping or finish sanding to the rest of the ship yet so it's at the very early stages of how the hull will eventually look so don't worry if you see some rough masking edges. I will probably shoot her with Dullcote after more light sanding and touchup (and applying the secondary accent colors-can't forget that) and then apply some gunmetal and silver weathering pastels. So this Grey Lady is still very much a WIP:
