Looking Fantastic!!!!👍🙌🙌🙌🙌‼️‼️‼️
Looking great 👍
She's looking like the lady we all know! Such an elegant paint job well done. The necells are looking fine as well great work.
That ship as a model is so simple, Its ALL about the paint and joints. Looks great Lou!
Whoops - was going to suggest the local auto paint supply shop - then let the video run and saw that's exactly what you did :). When I use those paints I use my garage with the door open and a fan blowing out... Good ventilation is a MUST for this paint.
see, that's what you get when you jump the gun...:) I painted in an open car port but still wore my respirator and gloves and such.
@@aztekdummy Yep saw that when I finished your Episode. As for the price of the paint when you figure out how much you get vs. regular model paint its actually pretty reasonable. ~$5 for less than an oz. for Tamiya vs $74 for 32oz... its actually cheap in bulk sorta kinda :). plus it sprays beautifully.
The Enterprise is looking Great it would be awesome to see what is going on behind those windows.
Awesome. Love the blue in the nacelles and that bridge is really great.
You are a very talented modeler, can't weight to see the end result, and I'm enjoying the process!
Looking amazing!
Love the paint you used! Suggestion for the strut brass. Brush in super thin CA, lay in the brass, then lay on black water color wash to flatten the glossy CA, then wipe off the dried excess with dampened t-shirt material.
I plan an overall dull coat to flatten the gloss of the paint anyway. Wouldn't that take care of the gloss of the CA as well?
Possibly, but a wash would ensure getting a “flat” into all the
Knooks-n-crannies, plus you will get an improved effect of depth behind the brass.
It's an amazing kit and you did a stunning paintjob! Can't wait to see the next episode.
Looking great Lou and you might want to try out that if resin, you'll be taking that bridge to bed 😁
That B/C Deck was as pretty as a giant M&M! I too felt a twinge of love. I found your paint quest downright inspirational and glad to hear of the great good success. Boyd Crompton speaks of auto-body paints but only goes into so much detail (at times plenty but only once in a great, great while). Also he mixes his paints by "eye" but his eye is a thoroughly well-practiced one (due to his "day job" which is an auto body repair and finish retouch specialist). In your case, Lou, the results speak for themselves. Mighty nice.
Those blue light boxes feel so right-- too bad they didn't go for it on TOS. I intend to always light my nacelles that way.
Love the galloping pace you're at! The end is near...
Looks beautiful... can't wait for the commissioning ceremony .
That Bridge piece looks fantastic Lou!!
Lou+ hay Lou just an idea my friend can you use the building jig to help build a shipping container this way you could take it to wonder fest you are doing a dam good job on this it's a shame not to take it to some shows you would definitely win some awards with this build God she beutifuly
Keep up the good work you may have thought about this tho
With regards

I look forward to your videos every week. This is looking amazing!!
LOL, paint under the bridge. I love It! 👍
The Enterprise is looking Beautiful. You really are a great painter. I always have problems with overspray when I paint.
Amazing👍 coming together nicely🖖
its getting thare see more as go
Thank you, such beautiful work!
I remember the AMT kit saying to paint the deflector dish Candy Apple Red
The warp nacelles DO look better with the additional internal blue grille lighting.
Coming along nicely!! The window lights are a bit bright.
Perfection personified!!
Pretty sweet! (Who voted down? Poor, poor soul...) Thanks, Lou!!
Wow! "Gorgeous" doesn't do the paint job justice. Just curious, but could the place you got the custom mix use specific color values, like Lab, if you don't have swatches available?
yes, they could, but they prefer real world samples. it's just easier to know if the results are correct that way.
I think you're gonna be happier shooting your paint through a gun. LOTS more control, and a superior finished product.
(By the way, most automotive paint dealers will put their paint into an aerosol can- which I'm sure you already know).
Shooting through a gun is best though!
Thanks for the shout out Lou! Glad the airbrush worked out for you! TAG Team Hobbies/Iwata appreciate your business. www.tagteamhobbies.com/hobbyshop/airbrushes.html
Lou, amazing work! You mentioned about removing your used masks with new ones for the windows, how did you cleaned things up after they were removed?
no clean up needed
Hello Lou, can you tell me , where can i buy one of these, and how much it cost ?
charly. any info I have is about 13 years out of date. if you look thru the comments on this build a couple of chapters back, you will find a post from "Mr. E from Tau Ceti".. he is the current owner of the patterns and parts for this kit. He has told me that he doesn't sell kits, but will do custom builds. I have no idea of what he charges, but you could message him and find out
Since your out of room for models how about turning your room into a bridge set?
Don't forget to get a haircut, ya hippy! =)
What?! Impervious to finger prints? What kind of self-respecting scale modeler are you? How do we know its you're handiwork?? What's in the video looks great...tho...
