TOS Production Enterprise- 1/1600 scale-new pics

[trekriffic]

These are some new pics taken this past weekend with my new 18 megapixel Canon EOS Rebel T2i camera. These are only 8 MP though to keep the file size down.

This is the 1/1600 scale Enterprise from the original Space Ship Set. The overall length is about 8 inches. I posted some older 3 MP pics from my old (now defunct) camera in another thread but I think these are of much better quality:

nice build,although it is rather glossy.

Glossy ? Hmmm. It's actually very flat in person.

I've always had a difficult time with the various clear coats that need to be applied to a model.

I hear you. I sprayed this with about 6-8 coats of Dullcote once I'd sealed with Future. I even Dullcoted the warp bussards as I didn't want any refelected light obscuring the colors. Dullcote's about the best thing I've come across for a truly flat finish.
