2' x 2' gaming surface and non-gothic sci fi scenery

I just finished the surface; the scenery will be tinkered with further, although the featureless appearance will remain as simple as possible.

Looking really good. The cushion mountains in the background need a little work though  ;)

Those are - er - clouds. As on Jupiter.
And you should have spotted the spotted one too, I'm very proud of that one!

Great looking board. Your minimalist theme is executed very well.

Very Nice terrain.  Where did the silver ship come from?  I like it!
This is my boomstick!

Thank you.
It's the lower hull of a Trade Federation Tank kit from Star Wars (the prequels). The missiles are a pair or rocket kits, the landing gear (which you just see) comes from a Tau model and the engines are keys from an old keyboard.

Any chance of closer photos of the ships (especially the converted AT43 walker) ?

Really like that (and the scenery too, of course),  :)

Thanks ElPrez.
I had posted pics of both previously, will see if I can dig up the links.

Here's one: the XB (the silvery beastie) - pics are some way down the thread.

And here's the Dotch (as in 50% of the Dotch Yaga)

Also relevant, a longish thread on rules for 2' x 2' tables:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=52502.45
List is on the bottom page of the link, but needs to be updated further.
