Klingon D-4 Battlecruiser

Post by Griffworks »

From UGH! Models, this is their 1/1000 scale kit, formally sold by The Delta Quadrant. It's a pretty straight forward kit, containing 6 parts, a Klingon Trefoil base, very comprehensive decals that include panels, and a pretty comprehensive decal sheet. Once assembled, the model is about 8.5" / 21.5cm long.

Next to the Miscellaneous Models D-10 Heavy Cruiser.

I primed him using Rustoleum Primer for Automobiles, then the base coat is Tamiya rattlecan TS-20 Metallic Green. It was sort of a test to see how it would look on a Klingon Ship. I sorta like it, tho because I think once I hit it with Dullcote that it'll look a lot better. Then I'll dirty it up!

I'll add more info a bit later.

Ho ho, nice build!

Wait, now ... that D-10 wouldn't be the one from Fasa's Trek RPG, would it be?
DANGER. SPACE DOORS ARE CLOSED.

"I saw it done on Discovery" is no excuse for anything, even breathing.

EDIT. just seen that Griff put it was from MM lol $55 is not bad for all that resin

Are you going to add all of those bracing wires? I need to add the aft ones to my 2500 version

I intend to, yes. I'm going to use either some brass rod/tube or plastic rod/tube. Haven't fully decided just yet.
