the colors that I used are 90% off white and 10% silver. It gives a sublte color that looks somewhat pearlecent. I plan to use iridecent paint for my
next one. I would like to do the build along Thanks!

Yup most deffinetly! This one should be about 97% sealmess when completed. The pics that I posted up here were actually taken like a week ago. Since
them I have almost finished the aztecing on the secondary hull. Maybe I will have some more pics up later on.

As promised, here are more update pics of my 1/350 1701-A. I am almost done with the secondary hull, it just needs a few more areas of aztecing and
hand panting. I dryfitted the deflector assembly to see how everything would look together.
