Now that I’ve got a black primer coat applied to the #Defiant, I can finally see all the areas I’ve missed with the milliput and where I still need to scribe some gridlines. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

The commission I’ve been working on for the last couple of months can finally be revealed. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

Some don’t like the #Inquiry class, but I’ve always loved it and wanted a model but there was never any in 1/1400 scale, so I bought the 1/2500 one by valkyrie013 on cults3D and scaled it up as close as I could… #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #MKMModelwerx

The 1/350 #Defiant doesn’t have most of the grid lines, so I used the 1/1000 version as a guide and pencilled in the lines before scribing them into the plastic. It’s not perfect but it’s good enough. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

#Defiant’s starboard nacelle has been sanded, glued into place, LEDs wired up, closed up and lights tested. Port nacelle next. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

#Defiant’s nacelles have finished printing, supports removed and test fit. Another comparison pic with the 1/1000 scale version. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

Light test of the #Defiant build so far. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

Printing progress of the #Defiant’s nacelles. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

Had to scribe the panel lines on the #Defiant’s bridge section as there were none. Will probably have to do this with most of the model. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

While I wait for the two nacelles to print, here’s a size comparison of the 1/350 #Defiant and 1/1400 #Galaxy class. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

More painting of the #Defiant parts and starting modifications. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx

Another new commission. 1/350 3D printed USS #Defiant. Shuttlebay painted while I print more parts. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx

Finally got the major milliput work done on the commission build. Once set I can get it sanded then see if I need to go back over some areas. #StarTrek #ShipsOfStarTrek #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Taking another break from milliput/sanding on the commission build, so I’ve wired up the LEDs in its secondary hull and nacelles and completed assembly. Just need to finish… #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Aztec masks for the 1/650 Essex have been created, cut then applied to the sphere. #StarTrek #ShipsOfStarTrek #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

A short animation with the 3d model of the Prometheus from Stargate that I made. Enjoy. #Stargate #scifi #lightwave #3dmodeling

Finally got round to putting the first main colour on the 1/650 “Essex”. Now I just need to create some masks for the sphere section. I’m planning on basing them on the NX Class saucer Aztec pattern. The rest will of the ship... #StarTrek #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Had to take a break from all the milliput/sanding on the commission build, so I’ve returned to the Olympic to do some painting. First of the main colours (blue) has been applied. I’ll wait a few days to let it dry properly... #StarTrek #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Another round of milliput applied to some areas of the #Olympic. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

New commission. Unfortunately I can’t give any details or post progress pics (build log won’t be shared until the build is done and delivered). Progress on my own builds will slow down further. #StarTrek #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx

Finally got round to sanding the milliput on the #Olympic. I’ve given it another coat of black to show up areas that need more milliput (and there are still a few). #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

All parts for the Type 11 shuttle has been printed. I’ve done a test fit and size comparison with the 1/1400 Galaxy Class USS Arcadia. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Port side of the aft compartment of the Type 11 is now printed. I’ve temporarily put the bunks, chairs and storage containers in place. All that’s left to print is the back section of the cockpit. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Last night the starboard side of the aft compartment finished printing. Unfortunately, the supports in the wire tunnels refused to budge, so I had to come up with a workaround. #StarTrek #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Applied black primer to the #Olympic’s secondary hull and nacelles then applied milliput to the areas that needed it. #StarTrek #StarTrekModels #ShipsOfStarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

The rest of the nacelle parts finished printing this morning. I tried to lay out the pieces to give an idea of its eventual size (Eaglemoss Type 11 for comparison). #StarTrek #3DPrinting #Shuttle #32Scale #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Slight change of plan. I’ve completely assembled the model so I can take care of all the gaps/seams at the same time. Another light test. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Secondary hull sanded, wired up and both parts glued together. Quick light test. Next up is gap/seam filling with milliput followed by even more sanding. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #OlympicClass #1000Scale #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Bussard housings for the 1/32 Type 11 shuttle have been printed along with a few other parts. Here’s a size comparison with a Vallejo paint bottle. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #32Scale #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Top part of the secondary hull and the nacelles have been wired up. Nacelles light test. #StarTrek #OlympicClass #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Type 11 shuttle bussards have been printed. #StarTrek #3DPrinted #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Chiller grilles glued to the nacelles and Milliput applied to fill gaps, then I glued the nacelles to the pylons. #StarTrek #OlympicClass #1000Scale #3DPrinting #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Another model being printed. The Type 11 shuttle seen in Star Trek Insurrection. My favourite design. Comparison with the Eaglemoss model. It’s another big one. STLs from Gambody. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Shuttlebay decal is in place. Had I known about the ironing function on my printer (when I printed this), I would have gotten rid of those diagonal lines. Next time. Now I just need to glue it to the sides/roof part. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

#Olympic’s sphere has been sanded and primer applied. I’ve also applied milliput to the nacelles and the pylons. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #3DModelling #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Next print is done and assembled. An Ancient #Aurora class battlecruiser from #Stargate #Atlantis. This thing is big (comparison with 1/1400 Galaxy class). Will be set aside until I get some other builds completed. #3DPrinting #3DModelling #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Top half of the sphere has been sanded and milliput applied to the lower half. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #3DModelling #ScakeModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

The #Olympic’s Sphere has been sanded (except for the bridge and deflector domes as they are a bit too fiddly). I’ve applied milliput on the top half to take care of bits that wouldn’t smooth out. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #3DModelling #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Those who know me, know that I don’t make things easy for myself. I’ve started sanding the #Olympic’s sphere to remove raised areas and print lines so it matches the filming model. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #3DModelling #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Finally got some work done on the #Olympic. The sphere LEDs have been wired up and the parts glued together. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

The final two phasers are printed. The “Cobrahead” and “Boomerang”. I would print the “DustBuster” phaser, but I’m not a fan. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #MKMModelwerx

Quick print of the Type I “Cricket” phaser seen in The Next Generation. The only paint used was on the power indicator (green). I may or may not come back to this and sand/putty/paint it properly. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Top part of the phaser from #StarTrek #Picard has been sanded and painted. Just a bit of cleanup still to do. #3DPrinting #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Another model I’ve been after for years. 3D printed Kelvin Timeline Enterprise-A. #StarTrek #SciFiModels #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

I’m putting the Sagan, Duderstadt and Neo-Constitution class builds on an extended hold. I have plans and I don’t know how long it’s going to take. #StarTrek #ScaleModels #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

Had to modify the pylon support structure. When I did a test fit, the upper sphere half sat properly, but there was a large gap between the lower half and the secondary hull, so I cut out this area at... #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

The Olympic class nacelles and pylons are out the printer. Work can begin. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...

While I’m printing the last pieces of the Olympic class. I decided to start wiring up the deflector on the lower dome. Created a light box, painted it black and glued it into place. Quick light test. #StarTrek #3DPrinting #ScaleModels #ModelBuilder #MKMModelwerx pixelfed.social/p/mkm_modelw...
