Hello, I am working on a 1/2500 Enterprise C from the episode Yesterdays Enterprise of the Next Generation. This is part of a group build over on the AST forums, but I thought I would show it here. This came from the B,C,E set from 1999. The E and B are off to the side for now, but I have plans for them. The nacelles are not glued on, they are just put on for show. This is the base coat, which is a winter grey. I have patching to do... should have done that earlier but oops. It will not be lit, but I want to do some battle damage as seen from the episode. I have some leftover battle damage decals from my 1/1000 Reliant. I am getting panel decals from an aftermarket seller, I will update when those are confirmed though. Thanks for looking

I’m just about finished with my AT-AT diorama. The last part I’m having trouble with is finding a way to replicate the cable wrapped around the legs and trying to suspend the snow speeder with the tow cable alone. I’ve seen several guys use various guaged of wire which look too heavy to be scale looking . I raided my wife’s jewelry making supplies and found that a 22 gauge wire is strong enough to hold the vehicle suspended in the air without having to use a mounting stick attached to the base however it does not look scale and is a little too thick still . I tried to use CA coated upholstery thread and that doesn’t seem to work either. I have some really thin lengths of styrene rod but they don’t have the strength to hold up the vehicle either. Does anyone have any other ideas? I’m all ears.

I have a group of Robotech Defender Models I'm going to be rebuilding into their properly colored Dougram mechs. I built all of these as a teenager in the late '80's. Background story; Revell was planning to sell imported mecha kits from various Japanese properties under the Robotech name. Around the same time, Harmony Gold was working on translating and combining Macross, Calvary of the Southern Cross, and Genesis Climber Mospeada into one, "cohesive" story. They came up with the name Robotech, but was already copywrigted by Revell, Revell had Macross models in their line up, so a licensing agreement was reached for Harmony Gold to use the name. Revell would later release Macross models from the Robotech using their proper names. The Defender models I have are from the anime series, Dougram: Fang of the Sun, The large mechs are 1/48 scale. I have some smaller ones in 1/72 I will get to last. First up is my Blockhead T10B, Revell called it Talos. I suck at progress photos, but this started off with airbrushed camo, over hand painted camo, and lots of visible seams. The Blockhead is the largest mech on the left. After some work:
