When it's finished, I'll do some proper beauty shots with a good camera. :)

The Azteking, is that decal or did you have to paint that on?

They are decals, Jeff, also sold by Polar Lights. Similar to the ones I used for the big Enterprise model.

Very cool they do that, looking forward to seeing the model when you are done.

OK, all done. Just hit the whole ship with a clear coat matt finish top protect the decals and to tone down the sheen. Came out pretty good, it's a bit of a challenging kit in terms of fit. It's kind of a Monet, looks great from a few feet away but up close it's a bit of a mess! The Aztec decals are very good, identical to the ones I used on the big Enterprise model I made. I didn't go into nearly the same level of paint work like I did on the big E, I'm saving that for when Polar Lights releases the 1/350 TOS Enterprise. That's my next project for the fall, when I think the kit is expected. Until then, ""...To the last, I grapple with thee; from hell's heart, I stab at thee; for hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee."
