Solander's Enterprise Evolution Display

[Solander]

Hi, guys.

Presenting to your attention a new little project of mine - The Enterprise Evolution Display.



Inspired by the "little ships" presented in Star Trek TNG in the conference rooms of Enterprises D and E and later brutaly destroyed by cpt. Picard himself in "The First Contact", this display is made from the old 3pcs. Enterprise sets by AMT combined together. I have also used the stand coming with the second set (containing Enterprises B, C and E) for the background Starfleet and Federation insignia.



The plague is custom cut using electric saw, and then can-sprayed black with the finishing of several layers of Pledge Future.



The models themselves, after being put together and test-fited on the plague with the metal bras rods, have been airbrushed Tamiya bronze acrylic. I have later highlighted the details with several layers of Tamiya's panel lines enamel highlighter andMiG neutral wash.

Nope - I was to lasy to purchase it in due scale and then wait for the model to arrive, when all the rest I already had in my stash.
But the offitial version - is that it was not the NCC ;D
And thus it was not presented in the displays on Picard's ships as well.

Because if this, I am also not sure about purchasing a resin 1:2500 now, and just adding it to the display, although I have all the opportunities. In that case, I would also need to find somewhere the ring-engined very very first Enterprise built by the Vulcan's canons of starships engineering and featured on the paintings in TMP and Ent. And probably the Enterprise-F too, it has been also shown on thescreen. So that is to complicated, thus I am returning to my offitial reason of choice above
