Star Trek Attack Wing - repaint Enterprise D

Here's a step by step of how I did my Star Trek Attack Wing (WizKids) - Enterprise D. I did a whole bunch of stuff wrong so, it's not really a tutorial per se. Take from it what you will.

I went for a grungy, weathered look.

Starts out vanilla with a wash of shade that I just put on it because it looks really bad at first.

Paint all over with gunmetal. The luminescent bits I painted white and masked with liquid mask. Did a terrible job of it.

Shade wash and drybrush highlights.
Then I apply a layer of chipping effect fluid. Same effect might be achieved with hair spray. I put too much of this, accidentally.

Paint gray all over.

Wash shade and drybrush highlights.

 Then I wet the paint and chip the paint.

Then I sealed it with fixative (it's what I got, I guess matte varnish would be better). Then I Removed the mask and painted and repainted the lit areas. I washed the thing several times over and highlighted as well.

Here's a little update and some pictures of a Klingon ship from the Star Trek Attack Wing game (from WizKids) that I repainted. You can see in one picture the before and after.
