Thanks for sharing this, great to see both your thoughts on the model, and helps us following in your footsteps with the build to know what to look out for.

Thank you guys both for doing this series! I ordered the kit on Oct 22 and it arrived last week. Super excited to start!

Very nice recap. A painful process, but what a fantastic result. I'm sure at times the finish line seemed so far away that you'd never cross it. A great journey that shows the power of problem solving and perseverance.

If you and Lou take these to Wonderfest, I think they are worth entering into the competion! You never know, you both could come back with a prize, because the amount of time and shared effort that went into creating something wonderful.

Hi Phil, don't sell yourself short.....then you'll be no taller than me! lol You and Lou have made an incredible job of creating such amazing models. Let's face it you were in an uphill battle against Helios, who it appears were making this kit on the cheap and selling it for lord knows how much......I checked out their Site and couldn't find anything about Prices to buy Kits......That being said, you guys should be proud to display your Models. Thank you both for sharing your journey building this awesome Model. Love to see the Enterprise E ( my favourite Enterprise) on this scale.

I can't wait to start building mine. I'm still waiting for Helios to send me the metal plate though. I don't know which batch mine came from, but my pylon has the tunnel already cut out for the red and green light on the back. Plus they gave me two deflector dishes. So far I haven't notice any of the problems you two had on your kits on mine. But until I start building it I won't know for sure.

This unexpurgated version of your Zoom Call was every bit as interesting as the abridged! My only crit is that you both should have had the lights lowered and your ships ON! A thought about possible nacelle droop-- not much to do about it going on. One wonders why they didn't print the pylon section in metal-filled or nylon resin. Heck, one piece out of all-metal wouldn't be that bad.

So which kit is better? This? Or the 1:1000?

Do you know if your metal guy might be willing to make more of those armatures, since I assume he's got all the measurements down already? And since there are quite a few of us who will need one for this kit? Or was that more of a special one-time thing? No worries either way, I just had to ask.

Hi Phil Really enjoyed watching You and Lou's journey throughout this epic build, I know it's not Lou's first time to the rodeo, But watching you grow your skillsets as a model maker was truly inspiring it's given me some confidence to attempt adding a lighting kit to an old Titanfind DSV2 Liberator from the BBC show Blake's 7. Keep up the great work, From here in New Zealand 👍
