Archive: 1:500 Scale Enterprise - Kelvin timeline (Brent)

The Starship Enterprise from the new movies (the "Kelvin timeline").


Main pieces have been primed and light-blocked on the inside. Next step: Applying aztec masks to the saucer.

.


Aztec painting of the saucer halves... This is darker than it will ultimately be. A fine coat of white will be applied over this to lighten it and to blend the colors.


Layer of white over the Aztek patterns...


Other sections of the hull painted with Aztec patterns - the primary hull and the warp nacelle halves.


Several pieces painted with clear blue, including the bussard collectors and the deflector dish...


Various steps in the lighting process...and starting to close up sections...


Assembled and now needing touchup...gap filling...etc.


Adding decals.


Completed!
