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.

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!

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

Looking good, Kev.

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

Damas · « **Reply #7 on:** 07 November 2014, 05:37:59 PM »

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.

OSHIROmodels · « **Reply #8 on:** 07 November 2014, 06:21:08 PM »

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

Looking good though

cheers

James

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.

Thats going to be another cracking model when you've finished mate!!

Thanks Andy!

That's the most star wars non canon think I have seen in a long time.
