Now… Voyager…

Fairly poor garage photo. Chiclets with dots.
I was amused to see these colored dots on a few closeups of the studio model's white "chiclets".
I used leftover decal material to make the tiny dots:

Bad garage photo. Nose details n the fading afternoon light:

In the rainy afternoon light from the garage windows:

Garage window frame shadows criss-cross the stern. The wall of the shuttle bay got an extra shot of dull cote:

Crappy garage photo. Hi-Res:

Here are some crappy workbench pics which I first started doing with Christine. Mostly low light shots. All hi res ...

Final pics on hold pending getting the decals for the DF, AW. and the base, Stay tuned and keep on Voyaging.
 
Now will commence the detailing and decaling of the shuttles….

Detailing the Delta Flyer. Canopy and other details painted with medium gray enamel. Warp grills cut from leftover blue decal material. Deflector trench was carved out using a tiny cylindrical bit in my battery powered "dremel" then brushed with sky blue enamel. Added thin styrene strips to make phaser strips. Will paint them matte beige. More decaling to come:

Still need to finish painting some medium grey areas and the underside of the Aerowing. Decals to come for it and the Flyer:

Decals from Meatloafr over on AST:

I collected some screen shots to use as reference images for detailing the Aerowing and Flyer…

Models after paint and decals… some weathering will follow for the Aerowing…

Next up… final detailing with Tamiya chalks and maybe a subtle black acrylic wash over a flat coat then a sealing coat.
Also, I'm almost done finishing the base. Will have a few photos to share soon.

Excellent work on those tiny ships.
I never did detail the Flyer when I did my Odysseus-A at this size
 
Thanks Q. The decals are the only way to go for registry, name, stripes, and other small details much too small for me to handbrush.

Anyway, as we voyage merrily along...

Some quick pics in rather poor light of the finished Delta Flyer and Aero Wing. These are all hi res.
Will have more later once I set up my garage "studio". :D

Aero Wing after weathering. The streaks and dirt really add to the realism I think. Something you'd expect to see from atmospheric travel:

Delta Flyer finished. i added red and green formation lights using enamel paint and a toothpick.
Also hit a few other spots with a dab of green. This ship is a hybrid of borg and fed tech after all:

Looks great on the back porch. The tiny rare earth magnets do a nice job keeping the little jewel in place.
I also have a magnet in the base, though, if I want to leave the shuttle bay unobstructed:

Shout out to "meatloafr" (aka James) over on All Scale Trek for creating the tiny decals for these guys.
Great value at a fair price.
 
Quick dirty workbench video showing the current state of the build.
MEATLOAFr, I gave you a shoutout near the end. :D
