Star Wars ships on Forum of Doom
« on: 02 August 2013, 01:25:54 PM »
Not mine (so far beyond my skill level it's just not funny  :'(), but well worth a look.

It's a mix of conversions and an amazing scratchbuild - linky

Painting? Casting first.... ;)

Lovely stuff. I have a blockade runner and it is perfectly scaled. The nebulon b escort/medical frigate is lovely.  :-*

Yup but I feel his pain as you are limited in respect to capital ships.

Suspension of disbelief.  ;)

The great thing is that this is how they made the ships in the first place when they did the films!

Inspiring!

Tis lovely work, indeed.

I saw closer-to-scale played a couple of decades ago at a GenCon. Fighters were micromachines, destroyer was over 6' long on heavy iron pipe stands with castors. Sweet.

Not sure how I'd play with X-Wing. Probably just put a wall on the edge of the table, fly against that.

I saw that display too. I wish I had my camera that day, because it was one of the most inspiring things I've very seen. My three or four trips to Gen-Con have scared me for life.
