Even though I like the FFG models and deem the quality of the paint jobs as good for the money I pay, I think they are quite, well, boring, if someone fields multiple ships of the same kind. Thus I grabbed my brush and paint...

Most of these are quite quick jobs, I don't think I invested more than half an hour per ship (in fact, I would even doubt it took me more than 10 minutes per ship, excluding drying time)

Niiiice. People are starting to break out of the standard schemes a little more. These look great.

Love the orca paint job

love the green corvette

I'm planning on an Orca frigate too, nice to see another one.

Did you use some kind of template to make the white oval identical on both sides, or just freehand it? I'm thinking I'll probably prime in white, then mask over the ovals with tape, then do all the black and grey.

It's just freehand. I am ponding about making them clearer, though, especially the outlines.
