The first one looks like its from either Battlestar Galactica or The Ice Pirates  :D

It's a true Star Wars ship (but love the Ice Pirates reference!  :D I thought I was the only one who remembered it.)

Anyone who has played the old TIE Fighter or X Wing games should recognise it!

Dont know the Ice Pirates but I can see the BSG connection. Another top drawer sci-fi when it comes to 'proper' spaceships.

These are fantastic. I always like it when people make their own minis, and you've really nailed the old-school ILM aesthetic with your detailing.
History viewed from the inside is always a dark, digestive mess, far different from the easily recognizable cow viewed from afar by historians.

It seems that Star Wars is getting a bit popular again so here is a small update from the Damasian Shipyards.

I'll start with a snapshot of the latest chaos.  There are a few new light freighters and a couple of fighters about the place.  It's like the shipyards are gearing up for something?
I think there should be:
3 x Lambda shuttles
1 x BFF Freighter
1 x YV-666
1 x YV-31
1 x YV-
1 x YT-2000
3 x YT-2400
1 x YT-1150
1 squadron each of A, B, X, Y
1 Squadron each of TIE ln, Interceptor, Advanced, Bomber
1 x J Type Nubian Barge
1 x Quasar Fire class
1 x PCL 27 Freighter
I've probably missed something as the desk is a bit of a mess.  o_o
(Any fuzzy photos are a result of my eyesight!)


Here's an understated civilian vessel off the lines.


Followed closely by three other, slightly classier ones.




A re-vamped paintjob on this one.


Slightly more military aspect to this little gunship.  I think it needs some markings of some sort.


A few old wishbones.


Some nippier ones.


And some others.


Here's the freighter that's been taking up most of my painting time.








And a couple of scenery lumps to finish off.


The fleet lineup is getting a tad bigger now!  :D

Blimey!
It is getting a little crowded in the shipyard these days.

Brilliant work, mate.

That big old freighter is most impressive.
Just how big is that thing?

Thanks chaps.

Uti,
If you mean the big white triangle, that's a Quasar Fire class bulk cruiser that's ongoing.  I have a couple of ideas for space stations and landing platforms but they're on the back burner.

Paul,
The PCL 27 rusty one back right is about 30cm long, the white Quasar Fire back left is 35cm long, 35cm wide.

The real question is: Will it be at BLAM?

Yes, there will be at least one game going on and I can probably set up an evening 'beer and pretzels' version too
