To be somewhat Enterprising....

And the big D is done!







I'm going to take a bit of a break from the ST universe before I come back to build the Ent -A (with lights )

My son has turned out to be a huge Max Verstappen fan, so with a bit of help form a RB fan page of Facebook I found a template for the RB16B (the 2021 car), So I'm building one for him (and possibly both team cars for myself )

You did a great job on this model I realy like it. Also what a cute dog.
Good to hear that your son is a Max Verstappen fan I think he would have loved to see the race on the Zandvoort track.
It was grazy when he won that race in every city fire crackers and a lot of music.

Great job, CG! I see that the nacelle and saucer alignment is excellent. I'm looking forward to your next project. Is it this one: https://honda.racing/f1/post/papercrafts-rb16b ?

Looks awesome!!!

Looks incredible. I have always loved the E-D. My first love is still the Refit, seeing that beauty shot in ST:TMP on the big screen, with Goldsmith's music playing over Dolby Surround... Really sparked a 14 year old's mind.

That looks really good!!! Inspiring me to start on one! Thanks!

So with Max done back to the Enterprises. I've started on the secondary hull for the A, and since this is going to be a light up edition I'm going to build the supports and figure out the lighting from this point.

I'm trying something different with the supports, instead of using the supports (which join to the centre vertical support, and I've had issues in my previous builds) I'm trying a single "through" support

 

[Cybergrinder]

And now the abouretum, with a very rough indication of how the lighting will work



and seated in the support structure

 

[micahrogers]

Okay, this is gonna be great.

 

[Awry_Chaos]

It's going to be AWESOME!

 

[zathros]

Great job!!

 

[Cybergrinder]

And now to convey an idea of the scale I'm working with; here's a worker bee

 

[Cybergrinder]

Here's a Galileo shuttle



And the shuttle bay. The temptation here is to get carried away and clutter it up with too many items



In one of my previous builds I have mentioned that the workerbee hangar parts provided will simply not fit in the model, so don't build 'em!

 

[mijob]

It looks verry good.

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

The support crafts are EXTREMELY tiny! However, they look GREAT!

 

[Revell-Fan]

SWEEEET!

 

[Awry_Chaos]

Looking Excellent!
