That red and bone is so impressive!

I think i like the red on bone (right) the best - would love to see an Old Teroch pattern done in those colours.

Those Fangs are incredible, great work!

Wait, did you actually put a bearing race in the Fang?!

All my pink Imperial ships so far (I want to add some more to the decimator and striker, and the lambda needs touching up).

Yeah, it's a tiny ball bearing (5x2x2.5mm) meant for model cars or planes. I had seen several mods using just a pin or magnets, but I felt this was the most durable solition that doesnt put too much wear on the paintjob (there's some space in between the rotating part and the main hull). The cutting is the hardest part, since I only had a heavy duty Xacto knive to my disposal. A jewelers saw would have been easier.

And thanks for the kind words on the paintjob! I'm really happy with how they turned out :)

And pink Empire is awesome! Needs more Hello Kitty though ;)

Hello Kitty even made it to the Commonwealth...

We already have Hello Kitty Decimator in Poland :D if i find pics ill post it :)

Just pink trim is enough for me. I'm not actually a huge fan of pink, but it's a lovely contrast for grey, which I discovered after painting an advanced foe my girlfriend.

I've also got some rebel ships which I'll try and dig out for a group photo.

Firespray repaint.

Like for the paint but mostly for the Quake tattoo.

Why is this thread not in the Painting Forum?

It was created when he Painting sub-forum was taken away. Then the sub-forum came back.

I found a nice 3D model of the Sentinel landing craft here (many thanks to dantesgift !).

It's a bit poor of detail in respect of the high level of XWing miniatures, so

following the amazing works in cardboard, I try to add something.....

I print 3D it in black, after a bit masquerade with scotch tape, I add cardboard ....

Than I paint with black and white and Nuln oil.

I hope you like :-)

I need your help to make the cards to test !

There's someone that just did it ?

Many thanks.....

Looks great ! I've used his model, too, but you made the right choice for print orientation - I made the mistake of printing 'flat' and the top curve looks too 'stepped' - oh well, I'm using it for a version of Hondo's shuttle from Rebels, so loads of containers and stuff on top:

Thought I would share my Poe repaint before I strip it in favor of an olive drab scheme. I like the official model better :) capture_by_tattoosbymikeguinn66-dav5oza.

finished for now. capture_by_tattoosbymikeguinn66-dav5vhp.

Yes that was my intention.

Sort of around the VF4 look.

With a VF0-B paint scheme.

Trying to mix things up a bit.

All the best

Barry.
