After a slight break from this project in order to finish the Studio Tydirum and Studio Defiant, Dan Grumeretz is back at the huge 1:650 Enterprise D build (which I was going to label as YAMATO, but decided that we would honor the Enterprise yet another time.). Having fit the entire project together, with the armature cut to fit precisely, some details refined to the GENERATIONS Film model, and the lighting ready to go, Dan has started bringing the piece together with the layers of paint needed on this piece. EVERYTHING you see in these photos is paint… Markings and all… NO DECALS!! The static copper nacelle effect is being tested as you can see in one shot. When the entire ridge section is completed…. it will be amazing looking! All in all, I am excited to report that this piece will be finished by mid January after years upon years of being placed on the back burner. With luck, Blue Screen photos will be coming by the end of January 2014. I am extremely excited about this project, can you tell?!! Dan is doing world class work!! Thank you Dan!
