They are the AoG / Mongoose civilian freighter and tanker models, MGP doens`t make them anymore, but AoG, despite being `out of business` since 2002, still sells what stock he has.  Just jump over to the Agents of gaming site and nose around in the `B5 Wars` range.

Additionally, since they apparently ain`t available on the larger scale, they also have them in the Fleet Action range

I'm not a spaceman, but strictly painting, the high contrast between metal and (kind of) pastels wins the day, so...

tiny things are hard to paint well, and you have both done well. The infantry are better than the tanks, but the space ships have nice crisp lines and detailing. In the last LPL the space ships did not fare that well, because they are hard to photograph well too- but your picture looks great.

'ma colleague Mr. Raz is correct, they do indeed make a nice FoW army (that is, those that are painted! Painting 81 infantry bases + everything else is dull).

81 bases... Jikkes. Life is hard for the commander of a Russian infantry swarm :)

That's just the infantry! Add on another 8 of artillery, 12 flamethrower teams, 7 tanks and 10 HMGs - I think there's some more, but frankly the thought depresses me ;)

I love the detail you were able to achieve on the 15mm.
