Those Excelsior & Enterprise-B upgrades are NICE! My Excelsior came with an original DML set, while I bought 2x Enterprise-B sets + extras from Cass. I can't wait to build them.

Looks like a fun build! I built the NCC Excelsior a few years ago, and I just received the Lake Monster Blue Trim for the NX.

Just a note, I didn't catch before I processed this video, when I mention 1/537 Refit, I mean the 1/537 Reliant I'm about to start.

Tamiya Insignia White is a good "starship grey" I used that on my millennium falcon. ArmyPainter Gun Metal might be good for the neck.
@James-rn7dx3 ай бұрын
You should try painting the neck in gunmetal and then give it a black wash, I think you'll like it. That's how I have always done the necks for the Excelsior, and it looks spot on to my eye.

Gunmetal is one of the colors I'm considering dry brushing which should achieve a similar effect!

Love this build I'm currently building the Enterprise 537 refit build and I'm looking for some good quality aztec decals. I checked out G-cals, but I don't think they have any for my ship. Do you have a recommendation on a good set?
@theensignschair3 ай бұрын
Gus does have Aztecs for the 1/537 Refit, I'm not sure why they aren't on his website but message or email him and he will get you set up with some.

ST VI shows torpedoes being launched for those spots on the front

The lower openings yes, not the upper.

Hello Robert. Those to ports that it looks like you're point at are in fact the photon torpedo launchers. In VI, you can see the torpedoes coming out from those holes, just in front of the registry banner Delta insignias. No reference materials indicate there are any windows in that area. The upper square ports, on the ribbed neck area, could be doors for loading torpedoes/probes. But are also referenced as "additional" torpedo launchers. LOL, typical of Star Trek details.
