    Sarah's U.S.S Voyager with PE and LED's

    This will be the build thread for my better half's Voyager ship that I bought her for her birthday.


    To be fair I will probably end up doing most of it but that's not the main aim here, with Sarah being pregnant it's not her main priority haha.


    I have the PE and LED kits and I'm not an expert on this at all so I will be asking for help on here and using the other build threads on the net to decide which inaccuracies to fix and how to best build this in general.

    Stage 1 remove plastic mouldings from the top of the saucer to be replaced with PE.

      I've built one of these and the join for the saucer section and the drive section can be a bit iffy , it's that it's a bad fit it's more the saucer section is too heavy , I used superglue to make sure it was stuck properly, ot does turn out looking good though

          Cheers, just need to get Lucy's wee car done so I can get more time for this. It's nearly there but she is enjoying her summer outside it's going to be slow like my other builds


          Cheers guys

                  I been, just a few weeks, on a Sci-Fi forum...... All them was very fan of the Star Trek movies and series......so if you need information or just watch some under constructions threads, it should be an interesting place.

                              First mod, pre filler... The position of these sensors or whatever they are! Is wrong to the studio model
