Opening ThoughtsThe 1/537 USS Enterprise is one of those kits that stalked me since I was young. I remembered seeing it in various iterations through the years, basically re-released after every new Star Trek movie.

Hello! I don’t usually do this kind of thing, but since every time I do a lit model I always get peppered with questions on how I did it, I thought I’d put together this little blog to show some of what went into the build and maybe some of my insights on the process. …

As a way to relax, I sometimes like to build models. I don’t do it as often as I’d like so my skills are often rusty. For my latest effort, I dove in and built the Moebius Models Battlestar Galactica. Aside from a few issues adjusting the ‘head’ of the ship, it was a pretty …
