I used Vallejo Model Air Gunship Green 71014 (50%) + US Light Grey 71045 (50%).


For the armor plates I used a mix of Vallejo Model Color Gunship Green 70895 (70%) + Glaze Medium (30%).


In my next step I used a rough bristle brush to speckle the plating with Vallejo: 
+ Gunship Green 70895 (33%) 
+ US Dark Green 70893 (33%) 
+ Pale Sand 70837 (33%)

For the "radiator grill" I used Vallejo Panzer Aces Dark Rust 302 and Light Rust 301.


Dark parts and shades are painted with Vallejo USA Olive Drab 70889.

Klingon D-5 Class

John Eaves created the Klingon D-5 class. It is an advanced design of the Klingon Tanker from ENT "Marauders".

As seen in Star Trek Enterprise - this is the Klingon D-5 resin kit from Starcraft in 1/1400 which I bought. It's a perfect detailed kit with very small parts and 15,5cm in length.

My only change was to cut the mounts of the braces.
