I've been cruising the internet for sometime, looking at all the awesome Star Trek builds.
Now it's time to try my hand at it.
There's a model show in my city coming up in about a month, and I'm going to enter the First Contact kit that I bought on eBay.
I've also already purchased some Acreation Aztec decals, and the photoetch details for the kit. I want to light the kit. Nothing too fancy, just some windows and engine stuff. It's been pretty inspiring to see all the finished kits out there, and I'm really trying to do a good job on this build. It's sort of my first 'big build' and I'm kinda nervous about some of the details.
I would really like some advice from people who have built this kit before. How did you run wires through those warp pylons? They're really thin and I'm nervous that I'll cut a hole right through them! If you have pictures that'd be great...
I'd also like to use this thread as motivation. Keep me excited! I'll post pictures of my progress!
