  1. There will be some touch-up work to do tomorrow for sure. These square decals don't exactly work well with curved surfaces.

    So I'm going to use some micro-sol and micro-set to try and get the painted-on look.

    How do you pronounce "decal"? The people I listened to were Canadian and it sounded something like "deck-ehl".

  6. Added 12 this evening. Here is a comparison between my current status and an in-game screen shot of a generic Constitution-class capital ship from the stellar (parallax) mod Ages of the Federation.

  11. An update for my #TOS #Enterprise #model project. Coming back to decals en mass now that I've taken a break of sorts.

    There are the three major steps to adding the decals, as it turns out.

    Step 1: Plan it all and cut it out.

    Step 2: Soak the decal in water until the decal losens from the paper.

    Step 3: Using the reverse tweezers and brush, slide the decal from the paper to the model off and carefully reposition with brush.

  12. Did a lot of measuring for //s as the plaster set up. This was crucial and took a lot of patience.

    You had to go into the project being OK if things fell completely apart at this stage.

    But I think it turned out pretty well. Here's two more shots of how it worked out.

    Taking the above in concert with "having to slow down to do creative detail work that was good enough just because one wants to do it" means this has been great #CPTSD #trauma #therapy as well.

  13. Building a makeshift #SpaceDock for the #Enterprise as the pylon-nacelle assembly broke. I think I've able gotten everything aligned for gluing and putty.

    I'm guessing on everything here.

  18. Round-Mound of Let-Down
    The saucer is a mess. My base coat was messed up b/c I had streaks of white on my brush from messy mixing (7). I need to paint the deck below the bridge (5) a slightly different shade than the main saucer. Want to set it off ever-so-slightly.

    Finally, I need to do something with the bridge (6). Painting it transparent yellow on the inside has been disappointing.

  19. Bussard Basic Look
    This is just another look at my attempt at turbines (7) and the cherry tomato (6) we used earlier.

    Next Step - #SandingSunday
    Up next I am making a note of everything , taking it all apart, and starting the putty and glue process. See these seams? (5). Gotta mess up the entire project trying to fix them.

  20. Closeups of the Bussard collector schema I'm going with.

    Tried to do a light yellow & red swirl on the inside of the cap.

    The turbine is painted right transparent red on the inside of the clear plastic with metallic blue on the outside fins.

    The endcaps are gonna perhaps be lightly frosted. Hoping for a blend of the two of the caps in the middle in the tray photo.

  21. Played around with some paint markers and shades of gray this weekend. Used my old Kelvin timeline #Enterprise as a test bed.

  22. I'm working on my #PolarLights USS #Enterprise kit. After completing my son's, I know more of what I'm doing and I'm doing quite a bit of small things a bit better. Much better masking, paint mixing records, etc.

    Enjoying getting into #modeling via favorite #StarTrek ships. #modelingmonday
