Polar Lights "New" Enterprise with lighting

[SpikeSchumacher]

Built this a couple of years ago. A genuinely great kit and easy build. I think the Aztec decals required more work than the plug-and-play lighting kit ?

An amazing looking model! I might even say "fascinating"!

I built their 1/2500 scale version. I assume this is the 1/1000 scale model. I can attest that he Aztec decals were definitely a challenge on the kit I built.

How easy was the lighting to do?

I just may want to consider building one of these!

Outstanding!

Amazing to look at! Is that detail painting on the main body with the 2 shades of gray or did it come that way?

Hi Bart,

Yes, it is the 1/1000 scale version, I should have mentioned that in my post ? The lighting was extremely easy to do.

Hi Tony,

Thanks! The two tone gray is actually from the Aztek decals that I purchased separately. Very labor intensive, but worth it in the end. I forget the exact base color I used, Tamiya Silver Leaf (?), over a black base.

That turned out very nice! Lighting sci-fi kits can take them to a new level. Well done.
