That’s looking grand!

Seems to be a Manta-lorian model...

Cheers 

Out of interest, how much do you plan ahead when building something like this...or is it a case of winging it?

A lot of it is winging it. For this particular build, I printed out the old West End Games D6 plans at roughly 1:56 and made the basic shape from that, all the details, panelling, spoiler etc are winged.

Get your coat

That is a thing of beauty. 

[AKULA]

Gorgeous looking scratchbuild 

[DivisMal]

The fighter model is great!

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks again chaps 

Got a few random bits done, mainly for set dressing and potential scenarios but the hut is a tester for a future rebel/New Republic airbase set on a relatively tropical world as I’ve got some Scarif terrain it can be used with.

The ‘wampa’ is from IA, the droids are WEG and the speeder is a scratchbuild. There are some hideous mould lines on the droids but they’re a sod to clean off and will be only be in the background so I haven’t bothered 

[Malamute]

Excellent additions

[Daeothar]

You're really cranking 'em out, aren't you?

Great stuff; I especially like the hut and the speeder 

[Elk101]

That hut is a great idea, I really like it. Is this something that might find its way in to the shop?

A forest wampa too!

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks

Salute is ever looming

It is. I’m working on the master with the possibility of having it ready for Salute but there’s so much to do and so little time 

[rumacara]

Now that Hut is a most welcome. It comes handy for my project.
Maybe 2 or 3...

[has.been]

Is that new building to be called...Jabba?  (I'll get my coat)

[Silent Invader]

The Salute table is going to have mighty impressive content. What size will it be?

[OSHIROmodels]

Good man

8x4 with luck
