Slow getting started again

Its been a while since I posted here.  Sorry, I have 15 million interests and it takes a while to get back into the swing of things sometime.

So, on to the Romulan Warbird.

As you know I drilled out the engine section, then I light blocked and primed it.  Maybe drilling out the holes first was not such a good idea, I ended up re-drilling them just to clear them of paint!  Wow that was annoying.  So I ended up light blocking and priming all the parts.



Before I drill any more holes, I am going to put the basic color onto this bird.

But before I do that, let me tell you another of my decision.  I call it, Keep It Simple Stupid! (kiss).  One of my issues is I decide to bite off more than I can chew.  So, instead of the rework of the inside cargo area, and a lot of the extra. I'm going to leave it alone.  Looking at the top image, the only thing I want to add are the two bits under the cargo doors, it does look bare.

So the plan now is to get this thing painted, built, touched up and finished without really any more mods.  I do have a large number of models I want to build,  and I told the wife if she let me buy this I would build it next.


I hunted around the hobby shops around were I live for supplies.  Gosh, its hard to find any now a days.  We took a trip to the USA just recently and found the following,  Made me very happy.


So that's the update, for now.  Going to work on that cargo door area today.
