Re: Scratchbuilds...

Thanks, Daniel.  I've been too busy in recent months to do much, but I have more ideas percolating about my little brain!

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Updated my pic page with the latest mini's.  3 new ones for FT/ Starmada.

Yes, I do have stats worked up for the Carthage, though the Starmada set is high tech. (+1 on all 4 categories)

Stay tuned since I'll update the page as I get things done.  :wink:


Anyone else get inspired by the things other guys do? *chuckles*  Lookin at some of the things Javelin, Ravenstar, Tonsha, etc. do is what gets me trying new things.   big_smile   So it's all their fault!  tonguenew album link. the other album was deleted by the cybergremlins.

Again, very nice!

What are you making these out of? You probably said already, but I forgot... smile

Just styrene sheet, tube, rod, channel, and bits of other things.  smile

Wait til you see the 25mm scale grav tank I'm working on. The turret even traverses. :twisted:

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Nice work guys.

They're not finished, but I plan on returning to them sometime.

Get to work!

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Nope, not gonna paint 'em.  I'm gonna cast 'em up, maybe after some mods to get the really big one adapted to a cast-able shape.

EDIT:  Oh, and thank you!

And THEN you're gonna paint 'em?

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Yes, of course.

If you just like seeing painted figs, check these out:

They're the GZG and BFG figs I've painted up.

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Updated pic with new ships and fighters...plus added some detail to the BC and DD I had done.

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Dreadnought is now done...though still haven't added the engine nacelles (haven't molded any out just yet.)

http://www.albumtown.com/showpic.php?aid=53731&pid=939766&uuid=35872

CVL is now under construction...

Nope. *chuckles* 

The CVL is done...and the SDN is underway.  At the request of folks on SCN and TMP I'm also actively looking into doing a limited production run (homework phase right now) so may have some available.  If interested...let me know.  :wink:

Re: Scratchbuilds...

i'm very interested.  Let me know what ever happens to these beauties...

and here's the super dreadnought...(all 90 mm of it)

Fleet Carrier now under construction- 45% complete  (after that...all that's left is to make up the engines)

Re: Scratchbuilds...

and finally...the Fleet Carrier, with the fighters for comparison.   smile

I'll be molding the engines and doing up both FT and Starmada stats for these over the next couple weekends. wink

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Something a lil bit different...from the anime aisle..errr...hardware aisle... :wink:

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Well...it's been a productive weekend.  Got 10 freighters painted up...the engine nacelles molded and started to get the finished shaping done...Full Thrust stats designed for the mini's and started the Starmada:X stats.

Also modified the Liberte' BB from the Bourbaki Basin contest...didn't like the rail guns so I made my own for it.  :twisted:   It has to have a stealth field generator on the thing since I can't get a decent picture of it yet (21 attempts last night... :shock:  and all I got is fuzz)

Here's some pics-

Re: Scratchbuilds...

My apologies for the thread necromancy, but I'm starting to scratchbuild some ships of my own, and I'd love to see these pics. Unfortunately, the site they're hosted on seems to have passed on.

Re: Scratchbuilds...

Yeah. The site got a major rework, then it became almost impossible to access to maintain the album so I closed my account with them.

Here's a couple examples of what was posted. My fleet carrier sans engines and a differently designed cruiser.

I'll leave them up for a couple of weeks.
