that's looking so good. i'd go light on the weathering, remember this is a brand new creation, it wouldn't be grimy.

In Jean Luc Picard voice: There are four lights!! That is what popped into my head as soon as you said "There are three lights in the array" 😝

Its fun seeing your progress Phil. Glad your enjoying the build as well ... be well 🖖

I think "Transdimensional Shrink Juice" 😘 tanks would be good. I would have guessed that the large tank would be the Oxygen and painted green. Love the Atom t-shirt. Please don't change the way you do your videos, you are so genuine and just a true joy to spend my time with and maybe learn a thing or two about "mediocre modelling".

Awesome build, Phil! Lots of interesting details and lights!

Indeed, Phil-- this is a one-man hang out with the unseen! But that's us. Fascinating to see this beast slowly come together. Generally, the use of shrink wrap for cable covering is just right-- but not all the time. My only suggestion-- and something you might consider for future projects -- is braided cable sheathing. I recently found a place that had a reasonable length of 1/16" diameter sheathing for like 24 smackers. Because it looks like aviation grade conduit or race car fuel lines, etc. It's the real thing. And a couble of thicknesses would work for many scales and subjects. Loving the progress-- this is an exciting subject.

Looking good Phil

Really cool detailed kit!

Phil had you paid attention in your first year secondary/grammar school chemistry you would remember noble gasses 😀😀😀 another great build and i love your "commentary" it's funny and entertaining and i agree with you on display models they are not toys DO NOT TOUCH

Super excited for this!!

Lookin Awesome

👍🏻 Happy New Year 🖖🏻

Hey Phil, this is looking awesome. I've got a bunch of Cris's STLs added to my "STL closet collection" to build. Plan on pulling some out this year and building them.

Happy New Year, Phil!

The 4 tubes goes to arms on the side for control

Happy new year to you Phil. Always enjoy watching your videos, I like to listen to your thought process on them. Along with your anecdotes . Loving how this one is coming along. looking forward to seeing the next part

Bowler Hat: Paint a Salad Bowl with Black 3.0. Turn it upside down. Cut the rim from a child's cowboy hat and stick it on the bowl rim. More B-3.0. Bob's your uncle!

Why, that three tube thing is the Triple Redundent Highly compact Mk 3Encabulator of course!

Very spiffing indeed... what do you mean you never play with your models!? You must have run around the workshop at least once with your Enterprise making whooshing noises and spouting Kirk'age? 😆
