Just for Griff!...

Posted by Chris_in_Japan on Sunday, July 31, 2005 7:09 AM

Thanks to a fellow member Jeff (Griffworks) I was able to put the final Enterprises to my collection.. As members do from time to time, we made a trade, and so was happy that he had what I was looking for!.. The great thing is, that from his own efforts, he added more to the trade than I was expecting..

Off his own back he found me a 1/2500 Enterprise E to go with the E-B, & E-C that he had already gotten for me!.. A little worried because it was already built, he sent me a pm saying that he was sorry that he couldnt get one not assembled.. I was simply just happy that he went to the effort and got me what he did (assembled or not)...

So thank you Jeff.. And as a little update, I have taken a few pics of where I am with the package you sent me.. The E-B is currently painted and half decalled.. And the E-C will be next.. But as for the E-E, it is completed and ready for the collection.. When Jeff sent it, it was built and already primed for me, so the rest was easy.. Also.. Thank you for all of the decals for the 3 Starships, they are wonderfull, and extencive!

Hope you like!

Great job, Chris! Glad I could help. That E-E is turning out much nicer than anything I could produce, that's for sure! Thumbs Up [tup]

Wow Chris that looks great! Even better when you think of the scale. I look forward to seeing the B and C when your done. For that matter all the ships together will look awesome!

Yes yes yes, I have been lazy, I know!... Ok, I will start with the my E-B.. The E-C is built, but not painted..

Next are all of them together.. I have done my usual and put the schematics with each ship on the bases.. I made them up on 3 bases for easy transport.. As you can tell the E-C isnt finished, but makes up the numbers.. I am pissed off with the E-D, as I cant get it to sit properly, and I feel it is spoiling the rest of them.. I am funny about that sort of stuff..

Best I can do for quality until I get myself a new camera...

Nice collection you got there. Did a good job on the bases too.

If you care what does that red picture frame say inside of it?

Thanks guys.. The picture is just something that gives good will, It says to be thankfull for everything you have and dont compare with others, as, you are you.. Always smile, and be yourself... The other stuff are 2 Space shuttle Discovery's I built for jobs.. Wakayama Castle, And my 1/600 IJN Yamato..

Thanks for the kind words, I have just been asked to build a FM X-Wing for a guy, so the E-C will be on the backburner at the momment.. I am in the process of doing a Speed Racer Mach 5 and a Star Wars AT-AT for people aswell... I havnt got a chance to give the old Ritz crackers a scratch at the momment...
