Latest project: Firestorm Armada/Full Thrust starship/space station

[Hobby Services]

Got this one in a trade a while back, based up for use in Full Thrust as a capital ship or space station (it's pretty "orbital" looking to me):



Appears to be a Firestorm Armada model, specifically a Directorate Tormenter-class R&D cruiser.



Nice looking sculpt with plenty of detail, which I've tried to accentuate with a very basic color scheme and careful highlighting.



Do kind of wonder about just what kind of "R&D" is going on aboard a ship class called the Tormenter, though.



Are they some sort of space-going vivisectionists or something?  Clockwork Orange in Space?

That does make a very nice station on its own. And a very cool understated almost monochrome paint scheme. Never works for me when I try to do that.

Thanks.  If there's a trick to that style of painting it's to keep the edge contrasts very sharp and go light on the ink wash.  Mostly just a matter of practice to get it right, I think.

Which is like most things in life, isn't it?  

Oh, and another figure, this one a kitbashed Stargate Nexus or Eldar Webway Portal, depending on how Gothic your Battlefleet happens to be.
