Re: Test build (a slow one): Star Trek U.S.S. Grissom
Hello all!
I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm with Biggerboxmodels and the Grissom we're building. It's getting pretty close to the boxing and shipping of this ship. We are cutting the foam for the shipping boxes and instructions are almost done. ShadowKnight is doing a great job and the test built is almost completed. Please let me know who would like one of these ships. I've been communicating with some of you through my email and need to know who else would like to get one. I will be working with the price of shipping with each individual location. The kit will be $400.00 and payment will be through my email address at Paypal. Please feel free to drop me a line through my email address (girgissam@hotmail.com) or through the RPF board.
Thanks again!

Here are shome shots that I took last night of the underside. I finished the sides too, but I couldn't get a good pic of them.

Sounds good. I'm busy the next few weekends though.

Thanks guys. :$
Almost there:
I cut these parts out of styrene to add to the ship. Hmm, so I guess I did scratch part of the ship. LOL
Then I started adding them:
Decided to scratch them for the bottom too (Odd lighting. These parts are not blue):
Finished the top:
Then added the Nacelles:
This will hopefully be done late tonight.
Thanks guys. :$

Nice build !!!

I remember building the masters and molds for the Sci-Fi Spaceship Miniatures "Survey class" vac kit years ago. I built my Grissom back then and just finished building five "variations on a theme" models using the "Variation kit" parts that I also mastered back in the old days.

Are these still available? The link to the website appears to be broken.
Did anyone ever receive one and do a full build?
