1:350 Star Trek FIRST Pilot Enterprise build.
Hello!
Here is my 1:350 Star Trek Captain Pike Enterprise build.The model is based on how the 11' filming miniature appeared in the first Star Trek pilot, "The Cage"featuring Jeff Hunter as Captain Christopher Pike and a young Vulcan Science officer named Spock!
I am a purisist when it comes to these builds so the model is as close to the original in this scale and features NO lighting. The 11' filming miniature wasn't lit at this time.
It also features the following...
The four large windows on the upper saucer were filled in and sanded smooth.
The rear shuttlebay's scribed detail was sanded smooth.
The detail on the rear engines was removed and sanded smooth, again, per the 11' filming miniature.
A number of windows on the secondary hull were filled in and sanded smooth.
The paint was mixed from Tamiya paints, based on my Photo reference, and Applied via an air brush.
The power domes were air brushed in a swirl pattern from the inside.
Surface detail was chisled off and sanded smooth.
