Deep Space Nine Space Station

Scale:
1:3300
Status:
In progress
Started:
June 30, 2025

The original 1994 AMT/Ertl kit, complete with significant fitment issues, incorrect scale (listed on box as 1/2500, but closer to 1/3300), and limited detail. I used GreenStrawberry's DS9 Windows PE set (21124-1/3300) to add in some detail. The kit is really giving me a chance to practice a lot of basic modeling skills: part modification for fit, sanding, filling, PE, etc. I knew what I was getting into when I started in, so it's been enjoyable, but I think my next will be a nice, neat, modern Bandai!
