Nice looking models! This is a howlrunner I painted for a friend of mine after it was damaged in transport!

Subtle, and beautiful! I love it :)

Really nice! I love the little accents over the viewport - what are they if I can ask?

I took inspiration for the markings from the Fine Molds 1/48 tie. Port side has a small red pentagon, starboard is a 'tally/numeral' type (combination of one, two or three horizontal dashes, and one or two or three vertical dashes). No real thought given to actual numbering, just went with what looked nice.

Port side lower has kill markings.

I'll get a better set of shots of Howlrunner herself at some point.

Those look awesome! Just keeps edging me towards repainting my own ships...

Have you considered doing the edges of the cardboard chits in black? I took a Sharpie to mine and it makes the bases look a bit more finished. :)
