My girlfriend bought me the polar lights 1:350 enterprise refit kit for Christmas. She has allowed me one part from the kit to work on till Christmas so I got the arboretum and set to work here's how it's looking.
Here's it out of the box

I first removed the trees carefully with my dremel
And I also dremeled out the water feature to give it depth

Good work so far!
It's fun putting a lot of effort into these pieces, but you'll be dismayed at how little of it you can actually see once it's in the hull and the windows are on!

Iv started adding the photo etch parts for my shuttle bay tonight after I persuaded my girl friend to unwrap my Christmas present and let me take the shuttle bay and captains lounge then reveal it for Christmas. she wasn't to pleased about this. Any way here's a couple of pics.

Yes I bought both the paragraphix and the pnt set. I was lucky enough to find the pnt set on federation-models.com they still have a stock of them.
 
Painted the walls and hand rails today with my new airbrush and compressor it's so much better than trying to hand paint pieces the quality is excellent.

Iv gotten a little bit more done today after a bit of a Christmas lay off I started assembling painting and Decaling the shuttle craft and I painted the shuttle bay floor. I did have a small catastrophe when I put the decals on for the cargo boxes on the walks I didn't cut the decals as I assumed they were pre cut to size. They weren't and I lost all six for the back walk before I realised they needed to be cut I now have to find replacements and the only way I can see is to spend $50 on a brand new pack of decals from round 2 models just to use 6 that are less than the size of a postage stamp combined. Any way here's a couple of pictures
