Return to CultTVman's Fantastic Modeling Return to Modeling Star Trek

BuildEnterprise
 Juan Olivo's Enterprise D

This model is illuminated with fluorescent tubes.   It was based on an article published in Fine Scale Modeler in 1994.  

I made the decals for the lifeboats, markings, windows, and the saucer and battle section "edges".  

I used the circuit board from the Enterprise A Special Edition  and a circuit board from a Voyager toy to give the model sound effects and flashing lights.

The base color is painted per the instruction sheet, but a little more sky blue is added to match the  Generations model.  The aztek panels were handpainted using duck egg blue.  

When the paint was dry, I oversprayed the base color to tone down the contrasting panels.   The  decals from the kit were then added, in addition to my own.
