Thanks for the kind words guys :)

I belief I just used a plain white rattle can. I can’t remember the exact brand. It may have been a white primer which I just sprayed clear gloss over the top? I can’t really remember to be completely honest.

Excellent work as always, Andy. And ditto on that deflector dish!

Thanks all. I took about 5 years to finally get this one off the bench! I hope to do the Enterprise B version a bit quicker though.
