                        I just picked me up one of these littel gems yesturday. I picked up because soneone mentioned it had "extra parts". I had never been a big fan of the TOS ship but is was bout time to try this kit out. I had no idea what i was missing! This is a sweet little kit, but it looks like filling the pylons will be a chore. Any suggestions about paint color/ I know this is a subject of much debate but I'd like to get the shade of grey "almost right". I do not have an airbrush so I will have to use a color out of the rattle can like Testors or Krylon. Any help would be gratly appreciated.

                        MGM,

                        Here's a great site for Trek (and other) modeling.

                        http://www.culttvman.com
                        http://www.culttvman.com/what_color_is_the_classic_ente.html

                        First website is the main page. Second site is same site but about painting the Enterprise. They even sell a book on how to model the NCC-1701.

                        I hope this is helpful,

                        Dave

                        Just heard that the NX-01 is coming out in 1:1000 scale as well, lets hope the other Enterprises are as well...
