1/1000 Star Wars *small update P17, 16/01/17*
« on: July 25, 2014, 08:28:22 PM »
Hi Y'all,

Here's the update for my little BLAM game, a bit of a recap from stuff posted over on Jimbibbly's thread,
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=41061.0
and some new bits.

Here's one of the TIE squadrons


Joined by two more


What the Rebel scum will be seeing


The Rebel squadron of Z-95s


A couple of Rescue Shuttles


The familiar Rebel Transport


A new addition to the fleet, can you guess what it is?



The Escort Frigate in all her painted glory


The whole (painted) fleet together


Rebel escort


More will come as and when they leave the workbench.  :D

Please do.
Watching James playing whilst slowly getting drunk would be a game all of its own knowing what his dice-rolling luck is like.

Yes, some have bits and bobs from model kits (mainly 1/700 ships) but the rest is plasticard, wire, putty and glue!  :D

Further to the far better than expected success of my Star Wars game "Escape from Hoth", I've been looking at a small expansion to my fleet.

Here is the inspiration


The first pass, you can see how far I've gotten


And now some more, it's really taking shape now and jumping out at you






The shape is now building up


Slap those greeblies on, it is Star Wars after all


Starting on the engineering detailing


Some shinies on the front now


More to follow as I tinker along

I have not seen a picture of the Wild Karrde before.
Where is that from?

It's a concept sketch by a french artist called Fred Blanchard for the Heir to the Empire series of comics, it's a PCL27 freighter.

Very Star Wars but that's not the Wild Karrde, it should be an Action VI transport (if I remember correctly).

Looking good though  8)

This concept ship was done before the Karrde was defined as an Action VI and, also, before the shape of an Action VI was conceived.
Fred had said that this was supposed to be an Imperial version of the Rebel Transport so he called it the Imperial Tuna.  ;D
