The Enterprise E looks like in the movie. Perfect. The coloring on The D is aweful.

You could also install these as is and use a drill bit to drill out the openings for the light without giving up having a solid background to mount the brass pieces too.

Nice build, now where's the X-wing kt??

I have purchased from here. Great product selection, good prices except shipping. Because I live in Canada the cost for shipping ends up being the same or sometimes more than the price of the model. I usually don't have enough money to buy over $100 to qualify for free shipping.

👍

I’m in the uk. This is where I get my Sci-fi Model fix from. Even with the postage from the USA they’re more reliable.

Now when did he paint a USS Excalibur?

I get a lot of my Sci-fi and Trek models from Culttvman!

I've been getting things from CultTVMan for years. The best place for Sci-Fi and real space modelling subjects, hands down.

I'm beginning to wonder if the AMT TIE Advanced is in reality 1/48 scale because the cockpit module for both kits look like they are the same size (The module that goes inside the hull halves on both kits).

Looks so good! I wish they make em in 3.75 scale.

@AllScaleTrek Preview Builds The Fine molds Falcon is still cheaper than a Bandai Perfect Grade Falcon kit. $400-$600 for the Bandai kit and I think the Fine Mold kit is still under $200.

Now Round2 needs to tackle the Classic MPC Star Destroyer next and add a updated hangar bay bridge mounted shield generators and a updated trench panels to bring it up to date.

Where can I get this polar lights official lighting kit you mentioned?

Where can one get the 3D printed bridge? Great build!

Agreed on your technique for the inner nacelles with the knife , loved that , this scale version is being released here in the UK this winter , i have decided to go for the Aztec decal set as there is 1 available here , like yourself i am disapointed by no window locations so will use the reference art and use the paint scrape off for the windows as this will hopefully be a neater option . Great vid ty so much .

I just got this kit and I’m glad I came across this video!!!

I finally finished mine a few months ago. Took a while to paint and used several afterparts from MMI. A more accurate bridge, Delfector dish, The back side of the Cobra dorsal, and the Saucer shuttlebay. I did cut into parts of the model to simulate the missing hull areas, and decaled the battle section as USS Syracuse. I used the ortograpics onlune from Doug Drexler to try and paint the saucer as accurately as possible, as she was still bearing the scorch marks from the Veridian 3 controled landing. She does not light up ( as I am really bad at using lighting), but I used paint pens to simulate the lights. All in all she is most likely the best model I have ever built (and I have a bunch of models im several Genre's. Including Lost In Space, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, some Star Wars, Space:1999 Eagles, and a 1979 Smoothie TMP Enterprise Refit!).

I really like the Strange New Worlds Enterprise. She incorporates elements of Original Series Enterprise and Motion Picture Refit Enterprise, with some appropriate embellishments. JJ Abrams' Enterprise, on the other hand, looks like it was designed by a 10-year-old girl. I hate it.

HI, I don't know if you keep looking comments for an old subject, but I have the 50th anniversary Edition, and it lacks the rust ring template. Would you have a scan/PDF of the template, or would ypu know where I cand find one ? Thanks. By the way, great video !

I love my models

For the thin gaps... consider using caulking from a tube. Painters use it to fill in seems when it comes to painting molding in a home. Once it cures, it paints well. But I would only use it on gaps that are not too deep or too wide.

I think the base color is way off

Add some hooks they make great ornaments.

A fantastic build. Personally I love the design of this Enterprise over the JJ. Abrams design.

Great looking build Mario. I still need to build my old version.

Nice alternate reality Enterprise. I still prefer the prime universe design aesthetic.

Looks amazing before detailing!

Beautiful job! It looks fantastic! ✌️❤️😃

The Shin Zhao would be cool in this size.

How much did the kit cost ?

Pronounced Ta-mee-a paint.

Cool job, cool model!! 👍👍

Would be cool if there was a way to paint this kit like the original TOS Enterprise.

Fantastic job. You always impress me with your videos. I would like to do this Enterprise again. I did my first one as a refit so I wouldn't mind having an accurate version. I don't it woul matter to me which kit though. I think the changes are minimal, although I do prefer the new pylons.

Can’t wait to build and light this, currently working on the 1/1400 E and it’s such a pain of a kit. This looks like it’ll be a breeze to light, and since I built the Discovery one I know it’s a smooth build. Wish they’d redesign all the Enterprises at 1/1400 scale, with some kind of lighting in mind like this one is.

Here’s a thought. We modellers strive to get screen accuracy, yet the shows change the design all the time.

Nice 👍

Looks great, its too bad you cant dim the window lights a bit as they are too bright.

Your build is looking great! I wish Boyd could have seen this kit.

Nicely done! When you do that much painting before gluing do you have to scrape the paint off where you apply the glue?

Great video. Thanks for sharing your technique. Anyone have info / updates on the lighting kit. I have seen pre-orders for the ship and decals. But nothing on the light kit.

I prefer the older one, honestly. The updated saucer windows just look too "Galaxy Class" to me. The new model is the "season one" version. The neck was modified in season two. The front and back ends are now curved, almost resembling the Kelvin version. This ship's original design from Discovery seems closer to the TOS design, and i feel these changes they keep making makes the ship look worse in my eyes.

Freaking awesome 👍 ❤️

wow amazing ship. When is this out for sale as culttvman shows it as pre-order? Also are there aztec decals for it yet, or would you have to use the ones designed for the first version of this kit?

I love the old one

Looks Great. I have the earier version, Just pained the diffrent saucer windows in it and looks great decaled up!

Wow she looks awesome

I'm always tempted to get one of those to turn it into a mode TOS-like version closer to John Eaves' original concept.

where can I find that 3d print file for the bridge? Also, Excalibur is still king, the silver from the show just does not look right for a starfleet ship, even though the decals or paneling in general help it come around a little.
