Enterprise Bridge build...(WIP)!
Posted by Jim Kirk on Sunday, November 1, 2020 8:25 AM

Here's my Work in Progress Enterprise bridge, I say work in Progress because I need to replace a number of things including the chairs(they are horribly inaccurate)AND add the lighting and sound.

I was keen on getting the colors as close to the "reel" set as possible and not jus some generic colors. Everything was air brushed with Tamiya colors...mixed per my reference material.

As someone who has visited the Star Trek Original Series Set tour in Ticonderoga several times, I made sure I came as close as possible!

The last picture is of me In the big chair on said set...to be continued!

Very nice!

 

Shapeways has some much improved figures and probably better seats.

Here's my Work in Progress Enterprise bridge...

Wow! Is that the old AMT kit, Jim?  Great progress!  Have you taken that to Triple-A to show it, as you go?

Great job there Jim!!! One of the best looking bridges I've seen. 

And thanks Mach71- those figures look really good. Big improvement over the kit ones.
