  1. Derex3592 Great looking Defiant! Those decals did settle down pretty nicely. As for the clear parts, mine went fine, so I must consider myself lucky. Except for the topside phaser emitters. I just couldn't figure out how they went on. But in the end found that they were set a little lower on the model than on the on-screen ship, so they were snipped and glued straight on. Cool looking Q! Are you gonna do her hot pink?!
  2. Not so much 'my' wessel. She was designed by Bill Krause, AKA Admiral Buck, to fit into a post TOS era but before TMP. The model was produced by Ugh! Models, but they have since been hit with a Cease and Desist, which stopped further production. I managed to get a few of them before that. Check on Resin Illuminati. Admiral Buck has several kit-bashes and scratch builds of same era ships there, and they are phenomenal! The one I like the best is his kitbash of a 1/350 TOS Enterprise into a USS Hood refit, after the episode with the M5 computer. Thanks Peng!! And that looks like a factory being set up, or a gate to Alaska Base..? With Saber, she is one step closer to finished, with the registry and name being worked out with Inkspace.
  3. Great looking start! The pics look good. One step before decals needed. Bussard domes...
  4. Woot Woot! About ready to fly. Those turrets looks sik! And in a good way. Hate to be staring down that barrell! Can't wait to see how they are turning out. For myself, paint is done on the Saber. Next is a gloss coat and then decals! Woohoo! Model on!
  5. They have plans for a trilogy - if the money was there... As is, they are about breaking even. I'm hoping it'll make enough to get at least one sequel to finish off the story with Nova. I would rather the movie had tied up the ending more tightly, just in case it does end up as a one-shot. Really hoping for one!
  6. Just six times..?
  7. It is Shark Week...
  8. I wish there was enough interest to do all that. As it is, I would be ecstatic for just one more movie to wrap up Alita's story, and finally deal directly with Nova/Zalum. But, until then, I can't wait for my 1/6 Hot Toy to show up! https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/alita-battle-angel-hot-toys-903755
  9. Has there been an announcement that this may be the last..? Superman Returns. I know MoS has a lot of flash/bang going on, but I feel there was more 'heart' put into SR. That is despite that Routh had too few lines that weren't echoes of Superman the Movie. Plus, I liked where its story was going better than Snyder's, in that it was an actual continuation rather than yet another reboot and built on the previous movies (excepting Superman III...)
  10. Rest in Peace, Mr. Hauer. You showed us great things.
  11. For those interested, available today!!
  12. Beyond is far better than Nemesis! Yes, there were very similar plot points and villains, but if you look past that you'd probably enjoy it. It's a shame that it suffered because of Into Darkness, as it was worthy of having a good run.
  13. Thank you Bolt, and right back at yah, MechTech! The louvers look great, but those guns are outstanding. Derex3592, that Defiant is really coming together quick. Very nice.
  14. Lovely work, Arbit. I know you said you were having problems with the decals, but I can't see it for all the Awesome!!
  15. Some paint going on the Saber! Finished with the main colors, and just moving onto accent colors now before a gloss coat and then decals. She's getting closer to christening.
  16. More hyped for this than I ever was for STD!() Already this feels TNG but with a bit of an amp-up in action. I think we were seeing B4, though why he would have been disassembled is a good question. Since he was already beginning to integrate Data's memories at the end of Nemesis, he could have 'been' him for decades. (And he didn't look that bad. A little chunkier maybe...) Would love to see this succeed, as it does look real good, and I don't care if they are bringing back the Borg either. Janeway face-planted them at the end of Voyager, so we are probably seeing a new generation of Borg turning up. Though, I was really hoping she was the admiral Picard was speaking to, but not. Plus, if it does succeed, then there's a good possibility of seeing new ship models! What are the Federation flying around in two decades since Nemesis? What about the Klingons and Romulans. I would love to see a Valdore on the show, as I really want a plastic kit of that! CBS almost has me wrapped up!
  17. Wow, I didn't even realize that it came out!! Shame it didn't do good, for Harbour at least. But I think it was too soon since Perlman's Hellboy run.
  18. Whenever I hear the title Birds of Prey, I think of the old TV series first, and then the Klingon BoP. I still have yet to see Suicide Squad and don't have much draw to do so. Unless it stars, Superman, Supergirl, Batman, Wonder Woman and such, I'm not much interested in second stringers.
