I already have about 5 or 6 hours into it. The main hull halves are glued together, misc air bubbles filled, etc. I am getting another kit, so I have decided to sell this one. It is COMPLETE with the original water-slide decals, display base, and I will even throw in a set of color dry-transfers and B&W windows.

I'm a huge fan of Scott's and have absolutely enjoyed assembling my D-7. I finished it today, and it now has a proud spot on my computer desk. I took a bunch of pictures of it. However, I didn't realize there was already dust accumulating on the model until I looked at the close up shots. Oh well.

I've tried to include descriptions with some of the links below.

Since receiving the kit around 4 weeks ago, I have been slowly working on doing the basic cleanup and filling surface imperfections. Earlier this week, I got to the point where the rough work was far enough along to get me to the second phase: initial priming and final defect elimination.

So far I haven't done a whole lot. I've glued the two halves of the engineering hull together, and am busy smoothing out the central seam. I've widened the fore part of the neck and narrowed the upper aft of the command deck. So far, I haven't seen any other build-ups with this modification.

When it was decided to actually show the Klingon Battlecruiser on-screen, Paramount commissioned AMT to build two filming models. One model was delivered as soon as possible, so filming could start, and the other was used in the production of the model kit, which is exactly one-half the size of the filming models. Once AMT was finished using the second model for the pantographing process, they delivered it to Paramount.

It was never used for... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (CaptCBoard) http://atomiccity.yuku.com/topic/528 Thu, 13 Sep 2007 09:53:35 GMT <![CDATA[ Assembly Guide ]]> http://atomiccity.yuku.com/topic/536/t/Assembly-Guide.html
First, putting the main hull together--


The main hull uses left/right halves, held together with a part we call 'the Bone'. This part has a 'center' that runs the length of it.

Green
Tamiya XF-21 - 1 part
Tamiya XF-23 - 2 parts

Gray
Tamiya XF-66


For the single Gray (which I now know definitively is not correct) the proper match can be found at Wal-Mart. You need to find a paint chip called Concrete, which I believe is #632. You can use that as a guide to mixing the color. This is the same color the original Enterprise was painted.
