Tom, it is a good start. You didn't want lights in it? Are you going to aztec it? I don't remember the name, but what about the one at the beginning of STIV?

Tholian · Model Overlord

I didn't want to put lights in it, That would take me too long and I really don't want to be bothered.
I will light other stuff up in the future.

As for Azteking, yes, I have the Photo Etched Brass templates all set. And I am hoping that it will come out looking nice. I want to try something different this time.

I have been told already that I posted pictures with that Damn Torpedo launcher on Backwards, ashamed

, And that it wasn't called a Miranda Class, but something else. Oh well, leave it to the Die Hards to point out all my Faults. biggrin

looks good smile

have you decieded on a name yet? or are you going to creat your own

Tholian · Model Overlord

Not sure on what name yet, I have a few ideas running through my Brain. But nothing concrete. Except the barian of course.

I want to order the Window decals for it too, just haven't had the chance or money yet.

Tholian · Model Overlord

Well, I havent got that much farther on her because I have been working on a bunch of projects at the same time. But I have it primed, and am still sanding down all the crap AMT put on it. As you can see by the side shot, I got rid of those ridges that make it oh so ugly. I am going to be ordering some decals soon for the windows.

They are better engineered when you pipe an M-80 in them and Light them.

It's true, you have to have game to be a good Sci-Fi modeler. Maybe if Sci-Fi kits were as easy as military kits more people would take up building them. Seems like if the kits are good then they are way over priced, Fine Molds as a prime example.

Just when we thought we had him "cured".... evileye

.

If Sci Fi was easy, everybody would build them.

Jeez, then we'd get Tamiya, Dragon, and Hasegawa building "shake the box" kits. There'd be tons of aftermarket stuff -resin, photo etch, and decals all from companies that don't fold up their tents 2 months after they open. Imagine the horror. wink

Now, now Doc. Tom can back slide anytime, since he is doing a very good job.

I never thought of window decals for the Miranda class, who makes them?

Tom, who ever told you that the Reliant is not a Miranda Class ship, don't know ST.

It has been called a Miranda Class, and it also has been refered as a Surya Class too. So it doesn't really matter to me, it is stock out of the box.

As for the Decals, they have them on Federation Models.

I always wanted to do the USS Bozeman as I went to school at MSU.

Supposed to one realeased in 1/1000 scale but not sure if that guy will ever get there.

Tholian · Model Overlord
