Nice looking crew.

I'd love to see your SD Boat, and find out how you made it.

Looks like a great project.  Thanks for sharing your pics.

Thanks very much.

I pulled up some wip photos I took while putting the ship's boat together.


This is what I used of the existing model kit. Big open space in front and rear is wher I added stryrene bodywork to give it a wedge shape.


I used the wheel hubs to make vertical thrusters for lift and ground effect.


Blurry picture of the work on the front.


After priming. The guns came off of an AT 43 Karman ship.

That is very effective repurposing of that kit.
Top work, sir!

Love that ships's boat. I now have to go get a Tumbler Batmobile, because I'm stealing this idea for my Star Wars project. Thank you in advance! Hell, this whole thread is chuck full of great ideas and miniatures.

Lots of great work going on here.

We played a "Take and Hold" scenario using the Starport Scum rules. Very enjoyable set of rules.

Some less than first class travel accommodations that came together out of the bits box. I'm working it to function both like the picture, as a stationary objective or as a moving vehicle.

Awesome! I think I just found a use for those old, undersized AT-ST models I've been holding on to.

So, I'm back on this project after a hiatus. I started back up simply with a squad of Imperials. I used some figures from the Sedition Wars game.



Hopefully I can keep up the momentum. I have a few vehicles to finish painting and then some more squads.
