Title: Wing Commander: Kilrathi fighters
Post by: Engel on December 17, 2013, 01:41:40 PM

When Agis posted his Wing Commander ship here some time ago I just wanted to get me some ships to.

Well, the minatures was ordered and have since then... ehm.. matured...
So its about time to start paint some of them.

The first miniatures, some Kilrathi Fighters.

Sounds like I should go have a look myself!

As for a game for WG figs, I'm sure I've seen some Full Thrust designs. I'll have a crawl...

I've always loved starfighter's, but never played wing commander. These look great and painted to your usual high standard.

What scale/size would you say they are roughly? 6mm or smaller?

Well according to the Dreamfoundry Shapeway site they are in "Fleetscale".
I presume they are meant as game tokens the represent a full fighter wing.

They are however definately smaller than 1/300 (6mm)!

Those bases look fantastic! Simple but very effective.
