ncc-1701 TOS aztec?

Hello all,

I don't know if this link has been posted before:

It has some really good pictures and information regarding the original model of the USS Enterprise NCC1701 as she stands at the Smithsonian today.

p.s. check out the link to ed miarecki.

If the TOS Enterprise does not have any aztec, does this mean then that the Bandai kit is inaccurate?

Or was this the movie version?

There is a FAR better and FAR MORE accurate choice available...orbital_drydock.

His work is simply outstanding!

Between his ASTOUNDINGLY ACCURATE painting masks and the Trekmodeler.com "Refit" painting guide...one CAN achieve COMPLETE screen accuracy.

Now, re: TOS E...

She does NOT have the 'usual' aztecs...she has LARGE panels (not a trillion small ones making up the aztec 'pattern' that rise and surround and have nO rhyme or reason as re: aztecs.

TOS DID NOT have any and TOS Remastered not only turned a one White vessel into a Grey one (?) they also added A LOT of hull plating (more aztecs) and SEVERELY LIMITED the amount of TOS "weathering" and I have YET to see ANYone achieve THIS effect (the one seen on the TOS Remastered, 2009) of LARGE panels surrounding the saucer of varying sizes...UNTIL I build mine.
