350 Enterprise-A, smusno style!

Project 350.....Classic. That's it. From this point forward anyone building a big refit Enterprise must call it .....PROJECT 350! Who's ever next gets the distinct honor of calling the build "Son of".

Won't be me, I want to watch a 350 build before I do one.

Full steam ahead and may you have plenty of coffee Smusno!
 
So, making a start.

Due to money and circumstance. My timescale is dented, but not my list for pearlescent glory, so...........................

I have never used alscald before at all. However, i have a skilled mentor to teach me.

Im busy making maps for masking on the secondary hull at present, and mapping wiring diagrams!
 
I'm a dremelless modeler. :'(

Seriously need to get one of these. Would be such a time saver.

Good preparation there, Dave. :)
 
Hey Smuso get any sleep yet?....I didn't think so ;)

L@@Ks like your making good head way on this rather huge build, but I know your Just the man to pull if off!!

If you feel yourself getting tired just have a few more pots of coffee or whatever you drink to get started!
 
Chocolate, booze and a Dremel. Why do I see you engraving your name on the base board molding in your house?
 
As my local electronics store is all out of LED's. And as im waiting for the brassy goodness too arrive. I guess I better get on with what I can ;D

Hayley and Hershal.

The decals are still a little glossy, but I want to let the decalsoft do its thing. Then a dull coat tonight.

Scrufy scruffy scruffy!
Possibly, in month 2 ill get the DLM ones. (if i havent rinced every penny I have on Alclad and flat white paint)
 
Paint looks really nice in those pics. Good work on the decals too, they look like they'd pass Kirk's inspection.
 
Amazing work thus far, Don't turn into the hunchback up in that tower though :p I totally lost track of time and worked 6+ hours on my build last night. Looked up and realized it was dark :)
