Space Stations, Debris Fields, Asteroids and other Battlefield BLING!

By bulldoguk, in X-Wing

Oh I noticed that joe boss, how's it play with the larger ships? I was quite surprised at how cheap those eaglemoss ships were considering the quality, ****, stop talking myself into it!

I have been working on it enough to confirm that it is very much like a typical X-Wing/STAW game. I move the ships with the same templates. The exception being that I measure from the front of the base but only move the length of the templates, rather than from the front to the back of the base.

Burnt a few candles at midnight and got detailing done on the Space Station, time to hit it with the hairy stick now!

Whoa.

All undercoated and ready for painting, I love this stage of a build, brings all those odd bits and weird colours together :)

Also, I started a new x-wing build, can you guess what it is going to be? Again, making it up as I go along so haven't a clue how this thing is going to pan out!

It's one of the imperial carriers I think

Very cool man! We could have used these for our cinematic Epic event a few weeks back!

Those Space Slugs!!!

That is a whole lot of AWESOME Brother...

:D

A few better shots of the Debris fields and stuff now I have slapped a little paint on, bobbed a few sets on ebay (unpainted) if you fancy grabbing a bargain ;)

Awwww, that little space slug is adorable!

Some people have said I get too attached to my creations. That's total rubbish, this little guy isn't allowed on the bed or the furniture :P

ERMAHGERD!!!!

EDIT: I find it additionally hysterical that his head's that big when his body must be eensy weensy. (That's metric eensy weensy, btw).

You Crazy You!

:lol:

Knocked together some bases which exactly match the stock card bases from the box along with some smaller asteroids to match them, this should keep the tournament players happy.

Also started work on the trench run components from one of our starter sets in the upcoming kickstarter!

Finally should have a bit of time to crack on with my Frigate and space station, rapidly becoming dust monkeys!

So all of this is going to be on kick starter???

Well, the asteroids, trench stuff, some awesome battlemats and planets I am working on will be on KS The station is a one off, just for me to hug and cuddle,until such time as it outgrows it's welcome then I kick it out to forge its own way in the world via the big door marked 'eBay, :)

A friend and me should hopefully be starting a small business in the next couple of months creating extra bling for various boardgames, (I will possibly be doing one off custom builds depending on how things settle in) we aren't talking game empire here, just something which will hopefully empty my brain of all these crazy ideas so eventually I can be re-introduced into society without feeling the need to loiter around the make up department looking at lipsticks and makeup containers with a strange distant look in my eyes quietly mouthing the words 'space station comm relay'

Can't keep a good (Bull) Dog down!

:lol:

Come to think of it, he looks like me also...

^_^

Some standard 'roids, I apologise for the lack of potatoes!

Apology accepted. Grudgingly I might add...

:lol:

The space station would be awesome. I'd support that in a kickstarted.
