    When I built my B I didn't drill the windows all the way thru as I wasn't lighting it. I just wanted recesses where the windows would be. So I did a ton of shallow drilling and cleanup with the needle file to get them as uniformly shaped and the same depth as possible. Then I filled the windows with white paint tinted light blue to contrast with the mostly white hull. Then I filled the windows with Kristal Klear to simulate glass. In retrospect, it would have been less work to drill them all the way thru and light it!

    I had no idea you built that one. I actually used that as a reference when I was building mine. It came up in a yahoo image search. Very impressive.

    Beautiful build so far Steve! Are you going to be making this "factory new" or will there be damage to the engineering hull from the explosion in 'Generations?'

    Thanks. I don't think I will but it's a thought for sure. Factory new is best for this one.

    I already commented on your video, but just so it's not missed, those little dome parts are replacement phaser banks. The kit DLM sells for the amt refit also comes with them.

    Anywhere that already has phaser banks. I just used a chisel blade to cut the ones off my amt refit. I'm don't think the enterprise b is missing any like the refit was. I may be wrong though.

    Just curious Steve have you seen the hardware references for the Lakota over on SSM?
    Lots of good pics you could use as a guide for accurizing. In particular this area inside the cutout on the underside:

    Loving the videos as well! I'm dusting of my own kit to get started on this weekend as a little brake from all the work. My biggest question, is where can I nab some aztec decals? My goggling has turned up nothing.

    Keep it up!

    Do a search for Aztek Dummy on the forum and send Lou a PM. He also makes final decals and made the decals for my 66 inch TOS Enterprise kits I make.

    Nice tank you are doing BTW. I should post pictures of my Russian river boat the BK 1125 completey scratch built, even the T-34 turret. Love tanks an gun boats, U-boats and more. I don't usually post that stuff here but it's on my website.

    Well for starters you can go here until I get something up. Small pictures but you'll get the idea. This is an usual boat despite the fact so many were built by the Russians. Every single part was scratch built and molded. 1/35 scale and I just ran it at the lake again yesterday. A tank on the water. Enjoy!
