Imperial HUGE Ships...I'm Calling It.

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

Is this what you saw moving through the woods?

You even put the right ship in her hand...

:wub:

I think she would get more satisfaction from a Lancer.

You just might be right...

:lol:

Oh no you di'nt

Yeah he did...

:huh: :mellow: :lol:

Must... resist.... ordering....Neb-B.... hrrrrrrrggggg....

Well, maybe an Imperial Gozanti. I don't need to eat this month, do I?

You want it, dont you? Yeeess.... yeeees... With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant...

You can thank Miniature Market's CR-90 50% sale for taking my Star Wars budget this month, Mel. If Joe Boss hadn't posted about it with maximum emoticon (so really, it's his fault), I would've pulled the trigger on one of your large ships.

A huge Rebel ship instead of a Huge Imperial Ship?

So be it... Jedi.

If it helps, the guy at the used ship lot only put enough gas in the tank to make it to the nearest station, and it was owned by his brother.....

To make it up for it, Joe Boss will buy twelve Gozantis. Feel free to charge him double. ;)

I am **** sure going to buy two from Mel, if FFG don't stop taking forever...

Smack it three or four times with a wooden spoon!

:lol:

Should i be ashamed of being a Star Wars porn monger? *L*

It is easy to get the larger models clean especially with the flat panes of a typical Imp shape

No if anything we need more of it to chase the prudes away, post picks of a tartan cruiser!

May have asked this before but is there a reason FFG could not create a baby star destroyer for X-wing? A number of current options just look like garbage, ie the Lancer. The customs corvette though stands out to me as not terrible looking. I think a lot of people would prefer a wedge-shaped ship that could easily and instantly be identified as Imperial and that is pretty much only a baby star destroyer.

"baby star destroyer" ...such technical language,

you must not have had your daily dose of caffeine yet maybe?

... and I found this slice of pie that is only 400 meters. And it surprised me that it's been absent from discussions:

Ardent Class Imperial Star Frigate

And wouldn't you know it another 400 meter slice of pie I'd never heard of:

Imperial II-class Star Frigate

More pictures of the Nebulon B. This time with the custom stand put together by my friend Silent Jim. The man is a genius when it comes to scratch-building. The Base is brass rod, wood disks and acrylic sheet. The attachment points on the model slide into the brass rod for a snug fit.

She is coming along quite nicely, and is large enough for the Rebel Transport to fly under, even with the stand lowered to give her a lower center of gravity, and make her more stable, I suspect the Tantive IV will fit under as well, but didn't have it with me to confirm.

Very Nice...I think because the Neb-B is vertically so tall...It really feels a lot bigger, and I think at this scale it can actually move around on the table. The huge scale one will be a monster.

It does look REALLY impressive. I love the fact that ships can fly between the fore and aft sections as well. How does it handle with the Huge ship movement template?

I find myself wondering if an Asp would be a suitable proxy for a Decimator (in friendly games of course). I much prefer the design of the Asp to be honest...

I bring you the Action IV transport. Which is going to be my beautiful Scum and Villainy Huge Ship :)

And my Nebulon B frigate, with the new stands:

Bytheway, a tiny detail. The Tantive IV doesnt fit under the Nebulon B frigate.... but JUST for 5 mm.... Its extremelly frustrating. If you took out the radar dish from the Tantive IV or added two pegs (one on each stand) on the Nebulon, it will work perfectly.

The Action IV looks spectacular! (And such a handy carry-handle! ;) ) Have you ever considered making some decal sheets for these ships? (Or, that is, some PDFs of designs, scaled to fit within the available flat surfaces of a particular model, that could be printed off via inkjet onto water-slide decal sheets?)

I could imagine that the Action IV would be a great contender for some custom decals for a made-up shipping-company logo and a bit of gratuitous Aurabesh to fit within the various "frames" on the sides.

OCD kicking in you can't put unpainted minis on the table!

I do my own decals for these ships... and I would toally do what you just suggested.. on 2 of them.. lol

I actually thought of doing something simillar for the nursery room window on the Nebulon B frigate :D I think it would be fun if you could see Luke and Leia there.
