I have a question if you see this. I have some experience with model kits and was wondering what you thought the perfect scale is for star trek models. I have a voyager 1:670 model and saw that there is a enterprise E 1:650. I like the idea of having all of my starships being of the same scale and with lighting (and servos in the case of voyager) but 1/600-300 is quite insane for ships like the galaxy. Do you have. Favorite scale and brand for federation ships? Thanks!
@ptaylor50142 ай бұрын
It really depends on how much room anyone has to display their models, i would love to have all the hero ships in 1/600 scale, as for brands it really does not matter to me as i like a challenge when a kit is not perfect, having said that though the older AMT kits are the worse for inaccuracies, Revell make great quality kits at an affordable price, Polar lights make great kits but have become extortionately over priced these last few years, well here in the UK they have.

Great Job, I did mine as the Syraprise from the 3rd Season of Picard! I did a lot of weathering on the saucer added the aftermarket parts from Motion Pictures Miniatures as well. And Also Cut down for the missing hull pieces on the Syracuse's Star drive. It turned out really well, I am awful with lighting. So, I used a .05 white paint pen to simulate her lights. and bright paint for the Bussard's and nacelle grills! 🙂
