Well, that's three to play so far and only ten months to go.  At least the table is small.  :D

WOW! Nicely done mate! :-*

For all the great detail on there, it's the wee cranes that make it for me! 8)

Here's the painted update.


A weathered but servicable cargo area.




The weathered top with corporate logo.






Dirty side view.




The worky end with lots of subtle shading and weathering that doesn't show up at all.  :?




Obligatory pretty shot.




And finally, a better picture of certain protocol droid and companion going back to his first job of programming binary load lifters.




so, what's next I hear you cry?!  Well, not sure really.  I have the following list of ships I really like:

Dreadnought
Victory
Republic Cruiser
Pelta class
Action VI
Correllian Gunship
Another Correllian Corvette
Strike class
Imperial Escort Carrier
Rebel Assault Frigate
MC-30
Space Station
Carrack
Assassin Corvette
Bulk Cruiser
Interdictor
Munificent

Any preference or other suggestions (no, I'm not doing a Death Star, or an Executor, or an Eclipse, or anything else over a meter long.  Paul worries for my sanity enough as it is and before anyone goes 'awww, why not  ???', the Executor would be 19 meters long in scale and I'd need to hire out the Excel Centre to play with it. :P)

I don't know how I missed this thread :o :o, but I've spent the last half hour drooling over my keyboard. Magnificent, sir.

Very nice.

Maybe something like the Munificent or MC-30 with curves. Or some small(er) stuff.

Hmm, challenging.  Possibly as an objective piece but I might have to buy in some more plastic as I'm not sure I have enough.
