I've been going through TNG series discs and just got to "Yesterdays Enterprise" last night, so I thought I'd catch up on your thread here....Although this class of starship wasn't eye candy to me at first, it has grown on me over the years, but that original blue paint job does nothing for me, so I'm glad to read you'll be going with diff colors.Your windows look pretty good for the method you're using..... that plastic is kinda thick isn't it? :bBest windows/slots I've seen are produced with an endmill.... but it's impossible to use these cutters free hand and get accurate results.Check ya later....Wolf
Also I've heard, but never tried it, if you brush a sparingly thin bit of liquid cement around the edges it can help to smooth them out a little.
Really nice work on the windows, Steve. Threading a strip of sandpaper thru them? Wow, that's a technique I hadn't considered! Watching with interest!
This has so much more detail than the 1/2500, what with the panel lines and raised escape pods.
As for how to do the windows off/on, I have a possibly difficult (or perhaps just painstaking) solution. Drill them all out....
