An excellent start. Everything looks nice and even. I did the intrepid from that site and ended up with a wavy, wobbly mess at the end. Kudos!

skupilkinson · 05-08-2008, 01:17 AM

Nice. It is very clean looking. I also tried to build this one and ended up with a wobbly saucer. LOL

Keep it up buddy.

col. kurtz · 05-08-2008, 02:06 PM

nothing · 05-08-2008, 03:01 PM

maybe ill just jot it down on paper.

col. kurtz · 05-08-2008, 03:12 PM

ill try to take some better photos they dont show the detail very well im planning to make the warp engines more 3d ad ing more detail the same way im about to eat then back to the build

paulhbell · 05-08-2008, 04:15 PM

Nice build.

I've been looking at building this one. But worried about the dreaded warp nacelle 'droop'. The plastic guys should know about this, with the ERTL kit. It was always hard to get the nacelles to stay at the proper angle.

Starship Builder · 05-08-2008, 04:25 PM

^ true i had to use invisible thread to keep mine in line without the thread it looks like a drunk ship

col. kurtz · 05-08-2008, 05:02 PM

i plan on using florist wire which will stop this happening ill share how i do it on this thread guys

col. kurtz · 05-08-2008, 06:07 PM

not alot done in the end guys too much to watch on the history channel and uktv history tonight which has tied me up.anyway got the middle of the bottom part of the saicer section completed heres some pics of my progress.

Hi colonel

I think you was in my brain

few days ago i build the same ship in 1/1700 (original scale is 1/1000)! you made some good ideas! nothing to say about your build

, just one thing: the Ent-A looks cool with some other TOS & TMP-ships in the same scale

col. kurtz · 05-08-2008, 06:26 PM
