@@MotionPictureMiniatures Second part was epic! I definitely see the advantages of the new kit...even if not lit, for the accuracy alone. I really wish they did/do a 1/2500 kit to size it up to the Galaxy... Or at the very least some kind of compromise with the Galaxy and maybe a Vor'cha 3-piece kit to scale with the D'deridex. It is such a beautiful design, and you never really saw how large it was to the Enterprise D. Regardless, an excellent kit, and an amazing video tutorial my friend!
@@MotionPictureMiniatures Definitely. I am glad you did this and your other videos. I feel that in the USA, model making is falling by the way side to 3D printing. It is really hurting the hobby to some degree. I pointed to your channel to all my mates to show them all your fine work, and suggestions. Thank you!
Looks like a nice upgrade kit. Have you thought about using wrapping wire? it's a lot thinner than normal wire and is safe to use on these type of kits as they don't use a lot of power.
@@MotionPictureMiniatures I can honestly say I have never had an issue with it tangled up since I swapped over from magnet wire. Also for the smaller kits that need lighting it is a god send as it takes up very little room. Boyd from Trek Works switched over to it and has never looked back. Once you have finished the wire you have it might be worth having a go with it, I honestly believe if you try it you won't go back to any other type of wire.
I believe they're a combination of both . Forcefields in Star Trek do fail for various reasons ( usually due to combat ) . Otherwise your entire crew would be getting spaced on a regular basis .
Great to see you showing how these parts work and go together, it looks like it's going to be a nice looking warbird when you've finished!
Thanks very much
I bought your upgrade part, they are great, extremely well made and make the model look great. Thanks from the USA.
Thanks 👍😎
Seriously perfect video... Thanks so much for doing this, and cannot wait for Part 2 :D
Thanks! What did you think of Part 2 in the end...?!

@@Sturmvapor a 3-piece set like that would be great 😎 I'm glad you like the videos, much appreciated

Wrapping wire looks like it loves to get tangled up! Plus, I have TONS of thin gauge wire to get through before I need to think about sourcing more 😄

How long and wide overall is the completed model, please?
Can't remember to be honest, sorry. It's the AMT kit so a Google search should give you the info
The ships dont have windows, they have force fields
Is that not a window? Does "window" specifically mean it isn't a forcefield?

I've always liked this ship, but hated the paint job. It just looks like mud. It's such a huge canvas that they really didn't take advantage of.
I'm sure they would've if they'd had the time. Greg Jein and his team built the initial filming model from scratch in just 2 weeks.....!
