My final and ultimate (I hope) TOS Colonial Viper

Really nice! I'm glad to see you didn't over-weather it. I think a lot of these kits get overdone a bit in that area.

I did have to stop myself. It's very tempting to just keep piling it on. But a lot of the weathering that was done to the actual miniatures was extremely heavy- it's just that a lot of it didn't show up onscreen due to the lighting. I was more going for the onscreen look.

Wow! That turned out fantastic! The Viper is, hands down, one of my favorite sci-fi ships (I might even like it better than the X-Wing...shhhhh!) and my Moebius kit is just waiting until I feel like I can do it justice.

One of the things I love about your paint job is that you didn't overly darken the engine exhaust area. I see a lot of build go really dark gray there, but on screen, it looks really close to the main hull color, just with some added weathering.

Yeah, I was going for the onscreen look.
