enterprise staubord weathering(pics)

Wow! How did you do that?

She's looking good. The Tamiya Enterprise is an outstanding kit and was a fun build when I made one years ago.

thanks yall for the kind words,mfsob i think your right i'm going to stick with the 11 missile ports that i have,i used the sharp end of a nail to paint these and i don't think i can paint anymore with my shaky hands

Man your ship looks fine like msob said you got right shape. Just check out my nimitz,your RAM looks better than mine. Keep up the good work.

I think you're being too hard on yourself - the degree of weathering looks fine to my eye. As for the RAM, looks like you got the shape right (try making one in 1/700 if you want to drive yourself nuts) - just remember there are two, portside forward and starboardside aft, which I messed up on my Enterprise build.  My only comment, and this is in the "insane detail" level, is that I believe there are 21 missiles in each launcher, so 21 holes. BUT - at that scale, who's gonna know? I say go with them as is!

wow.....i wish i had the skill to do weathering. maybe sometime i'll get it.

i just started the Big E myself. I'm pretty much going to build it as per the instructions. makes me jealous whenever I see models like yours that are weathered. makes them look so much more real. oh well.....one day......
