Really liking the look of this mate, that decking is screaming out for a dark wash though :smile:

Thanks guys. The decking did get some weathering to it, but I didn't put a wash on as that would involve gloss varnish and all that caper.

I added some Gulf War Dust to 1) tone down the brightness of the painted white dash marking and 2) further break up the deck colour.

The kit is finished. I have just got to complete the sea-scape.

Thanks again. :smile:

It's never what I expect when I see USS Enterprise but it is a very nice model. :smile:

Nice effect with the sea. I have a Revell RMS Olympic kit in the stash and wouldn't mind doing something similar. How did you go about it? :clap:
