Looks like Lothern Blue worked out for you.

Yes it did...my master *bow*

Great paint job! It looks very close to the standard FFG painting on the SD's. This is not a dis at your work but I wish the 3d printed model was more in scale to the size of the VSD and also I can't help but notice the really close spacing on the 2 bridge/fighter control modules. The aft section also looks a little crammed. All in all it is a good depiction of the ship offhand however. The Venator really was a great design and I hope FFG makes one eventually.

Although I don't really like the Venator, the paint job is simply amazing. I can't fathom how you managed to get it so close to the original FFG-scheme, but at the same time did a vastly better job than the "out-of-the-box" paint job.

Soo... How much would it cost me to get you to paint Mel's Acclamator like that for me..?

Yeah.. not normally a fan of the Venator but the crispness of that presentation kind of makes me want an Imperial one somehow. Give it cards to back-port to the VSD to make that ship better and you've got a deal.

that's actually a bigger ship than I thought. Very nice. Now I want one.

I'm not really a fan of a Venator dressed in imperial grey, but that thing looks outstanding! Makes me want to buy one.

If I may ask, what color grey did you use to match the ffg grey?

She's a beaut.

Very nice job! I've never thought the model really fit well with the rest of the Imperial Navy, but that looks pretty good even next to an ISD.

Really good work, you've done incredibly well to match it so closely to the FFG paint schemes on the other ships. Nice one.

I'm just jealous because I don't have the skill to paint like that

I am not a Venator fan, I am not a Venator fan, I am not a Venator fan...

.... frig, I'm a Venator fan.

-laughs- seeeeeriously awesome work. While I'm still sorta ho-hum about the FFG factory paint jobs on ships, the fact that you outright painted and emulated something that looks -exactly- the same is simply astonishing. Absolutely awesome, mate. Mig dark wash, eh?

:wub:

This emoticon was made for this occasion!

Beautiful ship. I dig what you have done here. It is a bit startling to see this side by side with an ISD and a VIC. I can only imagine facing off against this show of force. I'd do it. I wouldn't be happy about it but I would do it.

This was shortly before the Gladiator decided to run smack into the middle of 3 warships.

"All batteries fire fire!" The ISD took 10 damage...the 11th came when he went speed 3 and rammed his raider.

Its sucks :D when the other guy kills off his own ships and steels the points from all your hard work :lol:

Very nice paint work by the way.
