Not yet started with the Enterprise refit? 🙂

Hi, yes, started, but presently on hold. I did some work to try to make the recessed panel lines look more subtle. I hope to get back to the project in 2018. Thanks for asking!

I built one, It's a monster! Where the nacelle supports meet the 2nd deck will need putty and sanding. I also had problems with the Aztec pattern being cut too short! Check yours. Best wishes

It is here important to state that the newer kits in 1:350 from Polar Lights no longer contain Aztek decals.

Yes the polar lights kit has inaccurate windows.. I had to work on most of them and hardly used the windows provided.

I am currently re-drilling the windows on mine. Using putty didn't work well, neither Vallejo putty or Squadron Green putty, whenever the drill bit dug partly into putty and partly into plastic, so I now try filling the holes with rods of styrene, then adding liquid glue, then cut short, sand down, and THEN drill a small hole for proper centering, then drilling a new hole with 1.8 mm drill bit.
