So, I got me Squadron Box #7 in the mail. Within it, there's a Fed ship which I believe is the War Destroyer. Here's the thing. I have no idea how to glue the bottom third nacelle to the body. I haven ... |

I'm been wrestling with the same problem. I don't think Feds should be a pristine white, but if you tone it down, you get grey. Klingons - grey. Romulans - grey. Gorn - grey.... AAAGGHH!

That Orion ship looks fantastic. Great shading, highlighting and detailing. Probably my favorite I've seen so far. What colors did you use for this one?

I use a lot of different pai ... |

I like the subtle variations in shading you can get. They have a great sense of scale.
Agreed. I like 'em! Can't wait to see the NCF with decals. Its a good looking ship. Might have to buy one for ... |

Yeah, looking good so far. I like your choice of grey. Once you put on the decals, I'm sure it'll be that extra "cherry on top" that brings it together. Although they look fine now pre-decal ... |

Indeed. Yo ... |

I like the grey one better...
