    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    I finally have been able to steal a few moments to continue work on Revell-Fan's Colonial Movers.(still in the middle of a house remodel & moving) Just picking up where I left off. The small pieces in the first pic are 4 of the number 12 parts. The 2nd & 3rd pics are of part 14 & it's...

    The Building of a (Trek)Starfleet

    For any who might be wondering, I've been extremely busy & spread thin lately. Trying to finish up a big remodel on our house so we can get moved back in sometime within the next month, & dealing with some health issues on top of that. So, I've only been able to steal a few little moments here &...

    The Building of a (Trek)Starfleet

    I have been working on the cockpit section for the Phoenix, but don't quite have any new build pics to post. I watched First Contact a few days ago, & snapped this pic. I am basing my "greebles" on the details in this pic. I'm still playing with some ideas for the greebles, but it shouldn't take...

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    Found this little gem several months ago on Amazon, I often listen to it while working on my models. Helps me get into the groove! ;):robot1:

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    Thank you for that Skyseeker! :) No, I have not yet seen a model of the Rising Star, but that would be another awesome addition to the available fleet. Another one I'd like to see is the Eastern Alliance Destroyer from the "Greetings from Earth" episode. I'd even love to see it in miniature...

    :headbange::headbange::headbange: Thanks for that tip Zathros! :) I should have known that already though, guess I was getting frustrated & in too big of a hurry there toward the end . I'll remember that for the next one.:headbange:

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    Well, the Geminon Traveler is finally finished! I think I started the rough build of it almost 2 years ago. Then went several months without doing any work on it before I learned about greebling & got back to it. It's a big relief to get her finished! Here are a few final "Glamour Shots" Enjoy...

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    Absolutely! Fortunately I have a wife that is just about as nerdy as me & very supportive of my nerdy endeavors. She only draws the line at cosplay. I guess I can't got to the Star Trek convention dressed as a Klingon! :(

    The Geminon Traveler is finished! Just putting a few final coats of clear coat on her. Would've been done sooner this evening, but had to go outside for a little while & enjoy this double rainbow. Just thought I'd share. :)

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    I cut some scrap pieces of the hull to glue around the cockpit & wet it down a little bit, to make it seem to blend into the hull a little better . It doesn't look that great up close, but a few feet away it looks much better. The pics don't really do it justice.

    The Building of the Galactic Fleet

    Working on the tiny thrusters, the final few pieces to finish this model. It took a great deal of time & patience for me to put these together. I don't think I've ever had such a difficult time with tiny parts. My first few attempts, ended up being scrapped. But this time, Hulk was smarter than...
