    If you're ever in the mood to build another Galactica, the Moebius version of the TOS Galactica is the same scale, but much better-engineered and more accurate.

      Hi Michael,
      Sorry for the delayed response. . . Yes, I have heard that from some folks and some of the videos I found definitely prove the Moebius to be superior. but I'm glad to be giving this old kit some love :)

    GIve it a good gloss coat. Use the panel liner. Let it dry and then remove the excess with mineral spirits on a rag for larger areas and a Qtip for more detailed work. The gloss coat is key, as a Satin and a Matt coat will stain the surrounding paint. Try it first on some hidden areas to get a feel.

    @leo2a7dk 3 місяці тому +1

    Nice model. Remember to use a gloss undercoat when using panel liner. Then you will get the capilary action and flow. Let dry for a while, then cottonbud it. Can be used with matt, but you will a more spread like action. can be useful. But, beware...

      Hi JGG! Thanks for the comment!
      If you can, can you edit your comment to be "#ENTERPRISE" ? You entered it with a "Z", and that won't come up on my search when I collect all the names to put them in a randomizer to determine who gets the kit :)

    I put several of these together when I was a kid. Even then I was always slightly bugged by the fact that it’s pretty inaccurate.
    I was very happy to see when Mobius released their version, they were a lot more faithful to the show model. 😊 #ENTERPRISE

    • @thescifimodelguy
      @thescifimodelguy  3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah, I would love to have a Mobius one. They're kind of tough to find. And although they are FAR more accurate (and have clear parts for lighting), in a way I'm kind of glad to be giving this old 45 year old model the build it deserves.

    #ENTERPRISE Looking good so far on this build. As for panel liner you might try Dark Grey since this is a white model , it seems to give a better result for me.

    • @thescifimodelguy
      @thescifimodelguy  3 місяці тому

      Thank you, Charles! That's an excellent suggestion. And if I want to change it up to black in some spots, using gray first will allow that... wouldn't work the other way around.
      Thank you again ! 🙏

    I have a friend who builds train sets as well. The level of detail is amazing and he makes local scenes from around Ontario where we live. Maybe I can convince him to add the #enterprise.

    • @thescifimodelguy
      @thescifimodelguy  3 місяці тому +1

      Model train builders are in a class of their own when it comes to realism. I stare at those sets and could just get lost in there.

    Great job, white paint? On the tv she looked white, the original model was light grey.
    But with the wash it will turn out just fine.
    O yah, #ENTERPRISE

    • @thescifimodelguy
      @thescifimodelguy  3 місяці тому +1

      I'm hoping so! I'm going to go with another viewer's suggestion and use a gray panel liner instead of black. Adding that should reduce the impact of the white somewhat. Colors are always tricky; the actual model colors used in filming are not what ends up on the screen, and I'm aiming (usually) to go for screen-accurate.
