I did a gloss coat after painting for the decals to apply smoothly. I used a Vallejo spray.

Iāve seen that especially in starwars builds, I guess because most of those ships can also be atmospheric but in trek they are always clean.
It came with the stand. Thank you so much 
I agree that star wars vessels should look worn whereas star trek vessels should look clean unless there is battle damage. Also I have never weathered a model yet so I didnāt dare to do it anyway

Hi, here are some photos of my finished starship.
Did you find it necessary to wash parts before assembly? Did you prime before painting ? Tks.
Hi, I never wash my parts even though that is probably a good idea. Iāve never had any problems though. I always prime before painting.

Tks. It came out looking so good, thought id ask on priming. I sometimes wash, but not always. Was the 1st thing i believe mentioned in the directions.

Have you started building it yet?
Just now finished washing and drying parts with air hose. Have to wait to prime - weather is a little rainy and damp and want to do it outside vs in w/ ABā¦. Been a bit since a built a kit - been concentrating on my stamp collection- i canāt multitask! Also have to ck my paints,etc. Lots of shaking of jars to do! Did you use Revell paints?

No I used Vallejo equivalents.
Ok, i have those and your model looks good with āem. Maybe i use them. Tks!
I have a Micro Mark hobby paint mixing tool that I absolutely love. It will make short work of mixing your paints. 14.95 at Walmart.
Ha! I was just wondering thisā¦. Finally got some not so windy day, so i finally was able to prime the kit and was looking at all the tiny window cut outs and wondering what to do and when. This is by far the largest kit ive done, so ive not painted too much - or at least this large - before assembly.
