CultTVMan  Presents On The Bench

What's on your workbench? Show us!

We start the latest On The Bench with this project from Simon Haydn


Here's as far as I got with my scratch-built Aliens APC (1:11 scale), and when I get this model, it should be fully radio controlled.

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.

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

There is a piece of rolled up paper that I installed on the deflector grid to protect the copper color. Before....

And after.

Here are the rows of the Enterprise...
