Introducing the USS Thunderchild fresh out of dry dock!!!

[T J]

Ordered this in November some of you may remember. Well now she's finished and ready to show off. Naturally there are minor defects seeing as how I'm not a machine, but I'm happy with how she came out. What do you all think?!

Nice work, but whats with the yellow ship and black backround? Is it not painted??

I'm being picky so I'll just leave it at that.

Ummm... Yes it's painted, it was white. The ship isn't yellow it's gray, My camera sucks so wattcha gonna do. The black background it my desk...

Neat. I applaud your patience for model building. That's something I ceased around age 14 (20+ odd years ago).

Nice job (on the model if not the camera )

You should post this over in Trek Art, that's where we share models.

Thanks everyone! I haven't done one of these in years and I can tell cause my back hurt after.

I got it from Federation Models, certainly worth the price.

Give it time, it's their top seller, I'm sure it will be available in the near future.

Very nice model. I took the liberty of making some quick colour corrections. They won't be perfect but hopefully it does your paint job a little more justice:

Thanks TheSeeker. You know what ya all, across 3 message boards the only thing people want to focus on is my shitty camera, so just forget it!

I wish I had had a model like that when I was trying to extrapolate what's inside from exterior clues.
