I see their technology is no so advanced that they have found a way to make their shoes disappear too.  ;)
Great idea.

Hehehehe, indeed!

I really like seeing some of those INAPs with a paintjob on them, it makes the contrast with the clear versions all the more striking 8)

Darn it! Now I'm losing to models you can't even see!!!  o_o

All joking aside, great entry Matakishi, I love it!
Maybe I should have used the stealth on my ships too...  ;D

They're very simple figures and originally I wasn't keen on them but they paint up nicely and the clear versions are a definite bonus. I fear my photography skills don't show them at their best, they pop a lot more in real life. Oh well. Once this round is over I'll experiment with some different backgrounds and such.

As for the ships, I'm always amazed at people that can paint such tiny things so well. I hate straight line models and try to avoid them. I know the Minbari aren't strictly 'straight line' sculpts but the same principles apply. it's a close run thing.

Thanks for the great match Matakishi, it was close for a while!

Good luck on your next "battle" and congrats with your win.  ;)

Thank you. It was very close, I don't think I'll be so lucky in round 8 :)
