I can hear the theme music just from looking at your photos!

Typical boring table top/ background cluttered video of my 1:350 Enterprise build.
The model was built from the 1/350 Polar Lights/Round 2 kit.

Second video is a comparison with the actual Filming miniature. 

When I built and painted this, it was BEFORE the restoration of the 11' Filming model.
I painted it per the miniature as it appeared in the run of the series.
Special attention was made to the lighting...first it had to be in scale and I studied several SPFX sequences to get it as close to the original as possible in this scale.

The hull colors are custom mixed. Despite what some of the "experts" say, you CAN'T get it from a rattle can...and it ain't light ghost grey.

Nothing boring about your videos and you are correct to paint it per clips from the series. The resoration was beautiful but clips are the cat's meow.

A recreation of a classic SPFX Shot and cover of The Making of Star Trek book...filmed in front of a black drop cloth.
