what grain of sandpaper did you use to sand off the Paramount lingo? What did you use to smooth out the surface after the sanding?

I usually use 180 and 220, but I usually start with a flat X-Acto blade and scrape off as much as possible.

That was a really enjoyable write up you did. It was nice of you to document with pictures. That Klingon/Romulan model came out very nice. How are you going to top that one?

Great build up!

Nice job! Never seen one with the Romulan markings before - they do add a lot to it.

I have a kit bash underway where I combining an Enterprise with a Klingon Battle Cruiser. I have another thread here on my Eagle One projects and finally I will be working on my Starcraft 1/1000 Romulan Bird of Prey kit to go along with my other TOS PL kits.Big Smile [:D]Cool [8D]Shy [8)]

NICE BUILD ROSSJR!
What is the kit bash going to be. The reason I ask is ther were some early promo photos of the movie enterprise that had the Klingon battle cruise type nacels and the the old style gold radar dish! i have the pic on the back of an old comic [Starriors issue #1 to be exact]. i have never seen the pic again but there is a similar vessel displayed in the Heaver Cruiser Class Evolution Plans that have squirreled away somewheres...Shy [8)]

You could say I'm making it up as I go along......... Right now it is a TOS Enterprise and TOS KBC using the neck and body of KBC with the saucer and engine nacelles from the Enterprise...
