1/2500 Reliant

This is an old model I found mixed in with some miniatures stuff. It, along with another obscure Star Trek ship from the same era, was a gift from an old friend. That one's on the bench (the ship, not the friend). I haven't posted in a long while, but want to get back to it. In the meantime, here's a little taste of what I've been up to recently.

This Reliant was a bit of a mixed bag. It's a resin model, with a lot of good detail, but there were some defects which had to be filled in, mainly bubbles. Some of them were very small, and I missed them until the model was complete (maybe you can spot them...). In addition, there was some deformation of one of the warp nacelles, as well as the front of the saucer, and one of the shuttle bay doors is placed too high. The decals are good, but had some small discrepancies from the sources I found - overall, not bad for the scale.
