Nobody, they're all scratch built/kitbashed. There are some threads detailing that. The German fleet is based off some aeroplane bombs and the aliens are made from wire, putty and craft store beads.

Mostly right.

The Squid are as you said all scratch built, however the German ships are all available from Brigade http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/

Oops, sorry. Must be someone elses that are based on bomb sets.

If you scroll back to my thread 'Victorian Martian Empires' then I give some details on how the giant space squid were constructed. They were great fun to build and play.

As an update, Rabbitz is currently upgrading and enlarging his German fleet and I'm starting on the British Martian High Fleet using bits from here and there.

And...(drumroll) the survivors of the Dread 33 are finally constructing the vessel with which they will rescue themeselves. Or at least it's on my workbench. Think VSF flight of the Phoenix..or therabouts. So 1/1200 is going into 28mm!

Anyone know a good source for model girders at 28mm scale?

Just Plastruct, I would guess.
