I feel like stripping all the paint will only damage the unit further; and is probably a bit more involved than I'm currently capable of. So I've abandoned all hope but, I'm okay with it as a first project. It was an absolute blast to work on. I'm sure I'll buy a new kit after I've racked up...

This is awesome! I like the use of the older WWE logo (better than their current). What are you thinking of using for corner pads?

CB2001: I'll certainly have to pick up some Easy-Off and try repainting the grill. I've noticed that the glitter from the paint doesn't really help the cause. I may need to consider re-painting over that part in a solid color :) C17ldmstr: Thanks! I'll give scraping the chrome a shot - seems...

A few progress shots. I'm kind of at a standstill due to not having super glue on hand. Apparently the chrome pieces don't care how much liquid cement I use on them lol In this shot, you can kind of see where the Shelby grill logo used to be. I also screwed up the front windshield a bit...

Thanks for the tip! I tried some nail-polish remover - no avail. So the grill logo is just gone for the time being :( Also learned to glue (plastic cement) parts before painting, while putting the engine together :P Now I'm "unpainting" the engine...

So I've accidentally over-spray painted the grill and nuked the Shelby logo :( Here's hoping I can xacto knife it back

Hey all, long time RPF stalker - first attempt at modeling. I've always loved this car - and since I'll probably never own a real one, I figured this would be as close as I could get. I've only painted it thusfar. pics below :) Also, any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated...

Re: Star Trek (2009) USS Enterprise Revell kit build Nice start HughB! I'll be watching this thread closely (subscribed) as I've also just received my kit. It will be my first project of this magnitude (similarly inspired by thorst), so please feel obligated to point out any additional pain...

This paint job is immense. Professional grade stuff. Cheers!

This is insanely impressive. Keep up the good work! Anxious to keep following your progress :thumbsup

Fantastic! Such great detail! Just curious, are the lights functional?
