I am about to begin a large project that is not exactly unusual or unique. It's been done before, but not by me. youtu.be/B594jsKbsssI will be starting on the 1/350 scale version of the original series starship Enterprise from Polar Lights.  The build will include the lighting also from Polar Lights.   I am going to attempt replicate the paint scheme of the original series movie model. I have found images of the original model being restored by the Smithsonian Institute.   Should be fun.  |

Getting started! I added liquid masking to the clear parts of the bridge before painting.  Not much of a start, but a start. The Bridge....   |

To paraphrase: the journey to a complete model starts with one part - sorry, best I could come up with at short notice  |

Never realised the studio model was so big. Will be keeping an eye on this build.
