Here is an almost completed Enterprise. I am using a strip of paper to mask off the deflector grid. As you can see there are
some of the bussards (call what they really are Steve) that were painted a stop light red acrylic paint. I masked off the clear parts with Ambroid EZ Mask.

Here is the painted area of the deflector grid with copper paint.

Deflector dishes painted copper.

The close-up view of the warp engines with the liquid masked bussards. I will be painting them with airbrush very soon.

bussards are highly 3D.

As you can see, the bussards are painted but no worries, they are masked with Ambroid Liquid Mask including the lower and uppeer
