Awesome stuff, as usual!
Space Stations, Debris Fields, Asteroids and other Battlefield BLING!
Been laying down a little detail on the frigate, all fun and games until you realise once you have finished one side you have to do it all again on the other! GAH!
All the detailing pretty much done now, added a bit of extra va va voom on the tail end, the MkIV Bulldog definitely has go fasta stripes 
Will have to put this and the station on the back boiler for a week or two now a I have a ton of stuff to paint up in prep for our kickstarter!
Beast!
Simply Amazing!
**** FINE Work Mate!!!
Post us some nice pictures with the FFG Tantive and a Falcon and that Nebbie you built last year... when you get time, why don't cha.
Here ya go Joe
Few pictures of the frigate next to some of the other fleet ships (runner and transport are the official FFG models) Its actually the first time I have measured this fella and he comes in at approx. 60cm long, pretty happy with the look next to the neb B, he looks suitably more chunky and kick ass
Had so much fun playing Dagobah Dave's scenario I decided to honour it with 3D bits n bobs
Finished casting the 3D components of the Trench Run set, time to grab the old hairy stick and splash some colour around!
pew pew pew
I have created some tokens to place on ships to indicate if you are in or out of the trench, saves on all that fannying around changing post heights 
Funky little turn indicator too!
Exhaust port and marker to, well, mark the sweet spot for launching those torps
I have made some destroyed version of the towers that you simply replace when you done the dirty
Destroyed version of a power node, like the towers you simply swap the top out once destroyed
I love my story based play so decided that some inspiration for thematic based games was required....planets and moons it had to be! While I reckon this will probably appeal to Attack Wing players more simply because, for me at least, I always felt the core of the Trek story was exploration I have no doubt that some of these will be fitting in to many of our Xwing battles too!
Hardcore Xwingers please look away now, there are certain ships shown here that simply don't exist in your imagination and may cause skin irritation, high blood pressure and temporary impotence if viewed
Planets and moons!
A federation ship closes into a dying planet and prepares to launch a probe
The Enterprise enters orbit around a populated planet
Kirk prepares to dump the tribble infestation on a volcanic planet
A D-class closes in on an outpost moon under the watchful eye of a defense platform
Kirk, disappointed that the 'hot body' reported in this quadrant was nothing but a lava world...KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
A Klingon BoP de-cloaks to ambush the Enterprise...sneaky Klingons, been taking lessons from those Rebel scum!
Voyager, well, um, just voyaging I suppose, see what happens when you put a women in charge of the starmap!
Kirk, disappointed that the 'hot body' reported in this quadrant was nothing but a lava world...KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
HOT BODY!
almost ruptured my sinuses and spit coffee on my keyboard, hilarious!

Now you know when you get the painting done I want to do a battle scene with all of the Huge Ships you have...
You should totally repost this in the repaints an scratch build thread to stop it getting lost in a few days.
Defo be running some crazy battles Joe, be a waste not to wouldn't it! Just need some nice person to fuddle up some rules for the frigate really
LOL, sorry LordCole 
Right, that's that lot painted! Looking forward to having a game this week, battle report will follow! Colours came out quite nice, go well with the mat
Based the contents around Dagobah Daves fugging awesome Trench run scenario, easily the best we have played
Hell of a lot tbh I think we may have to thin this down into a smaller and cheaper (but still playable) set and maybe offer extra towers, etc as booster packs. We are working on a surface epic battle mat, basically double the size with the trench at one end. if ever I get some spare time I want to build more towers and just go for a crazy deathstar assault scenario
In the meantime, here ya go!
All set up, 4 large towers, 4 small towers, 3 power nodes, turn indicator, exhaust port, 8 x destroyed towers, 3 destroyed nodes and 7 tokens
Its nasty round that there exhaust port!
Power node, doing what power nodes do best, erm, noding
Poorly power node aaaawwwwwww
Destroyed tower replacements
<insert the obligatory PEW PEW PEW here>
Only 2 turns until they reach firing position....AAAAARRRRRGGGHHH!
Your all clear to kickstart on the 22nd September kid!
Let 'em rip!
AWESOMENESS... ALL OF IT!
The counter. I just gave a standing ovation for the counter!
Everything about this is amazing!
Kickstarter is a go! That's right, have a little piece of me forever in your home without the need for a costly restraint order when I outlive my welcome! Even if you don't want the space stuff, I can recommend the islands, balance them on your tummy in the bath and pretend you are Neptune punishing unworthy worshippers with a radox storm!
Check it out here ----> https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1186664051/combatzone-scenery?ref=email
maybe, just maybe I can grab a little me time for a couple of days now and crack on with the station and frigate!
This will be a new addition to the KS, should be fun for both xwing and attack wing games...
When baby space worm grows out of it's birth rock it breaks free and roams the local asteroid fields gathering debris and asteroids to build a bigger protective shell, the result is....
Daddy worm!

You so **** cray-zee!
Post it over at BB too!
Is that the Google thing joe? Can't for the life of me work out how to post stuff on there, too long behind a scalpel, I think that's my problem!

Wow, they can do that now, that's just amazing! What will they think of next, hey, how about a long distance controller thing so you don't have to stand up and turn over the TV, that would be cool!
Been working on some replacements for the cardboard tokens...
Ever wondered why there is so much debris in space???
pesky space mines! that's why!
As if huge rocks in your way wasn't enough!
Wall of Death!
Also made up some cargo containers
While they tend not to be on the board long i decided to make up the seismic charges and proton bombs too, they can make nice objectives in home made scenarios
I have kept everything within the dimensions of the original tokens
The mine 'lasers' can be removed for storage, we play a fun house rule that if you accidentally knock a beam out, your ships takes the damage...careful clumsy!
Almost forgot...seemed a shame not to repurpose that exhaust port so...made a dice tower for the Trench stuff
