Your ships look awesome. All the fighters remind me of fighters from the Wing Commander games (not the movie! bleagh) which is great. Love 'em.

You know when i put the Kihraxz together i thought........this looks like something I have seen before.

now you mention Wing Commander....yep I see it.

"and not that awful film the Awesome computer games of the early to mid 90's........that also strarred Mark Hamill !

I will be re-hosting all of the images from these links very soon.

Please bare with me while I go through everything.

Wanted to put all my forum topics in one place........more so I can find them again !

And I tend to use my Scum page more than any other.

this new Web page set up is awful in comparison to what it use to be :angry:

Easier for me, and others to browse content.

Now I can find everything :D

Spent a couple of nights looking over this thread.

Excellent work with the paints and mods.

Nice inspiration, now to work up the courage to start in on my models. Looking at you T-70...

Thank you anthemius.

Glad to be of some inspiration, it was looking at the first incarnation of the paint and modification thread a few years ago that inspired me.

And still does.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with on your T70.

Don't forget to post photos when your done, start up a forum thread of your work.

And keep going from there.

All the best,

Barry.

Another Protectorate Fighter.

Had this one kicking around for a while,

So I thought I would finish it today while I had a few spare hours. it uses the Main cockpit from a Pro-Fighter and the rest is all plastic card.

My friend, I have been painting and modifying miniatures for over 35 years and you do some of the best work that I have ever seen. I would be proud to have some of your work in my collection.

Jeff

Thank you Jeff :D

Much appreciated and I'm glad you like the Models.

The Scum Universe certainly does lend itself to more Modifications than the other factions.

All the best,

Barry.

Every time I see that this thread is updated I get excited. I don't even know where you come up with this stuff, Barry, but it's awesome!

That last picture of the two modded Protectorates is just too cool.

Those are some excellent looking fighters. Good job on mods especially.

Frakin' awesome as always. Barry, you never disappoint.

:D

This Easter Break is allowing me to finally get my Custom Firespray finished so ill be posting finished pics of that soon.

And starting my YT-1930 "Which i'm Itching to get on with but wont start until the Firespray is done ! "

All the best,

Barry.

Well, Its about time i got this thing FINISHED ! ;)

So Today I finished all of the Surface detail on the Firespray and primed the model ready for final paint tomorrow.

This model has been Dragging on for to long, so its good to finally get it ready for the paint stage.

And I have decided to go back to my Original idea of painting it up in the same colour as the Klingon Bird of Prey.....I just Love that Colour Scheme !

The Model has now been Sprayed Black and ready for tomorrow when I start Shading in Alternate shades of Green in the Panels.

And then the Red on the raised sections of the wings, which is what they were originally intended for.

Ill post more Photos in the week when the Model is Finished.

All the best,

Barry.

Looks like something the Dark Eldar would go reaving in.

Getting on with the Painting....now patiently waiting for the first coat of Ink to dry.

Sprayed Black first for the Depth of the green over sprays.

Green over spray applied over the black and simple blocking in of alternate greens for the panels.......

Thick coating of Citadel Nuln Oil and now waiting for it to dry to begin weathering and panel shading.......

Been waiting a while for this one, Barry...but more than worth the wait!

Love that cockpit armour, what it should always have been like - standard cockpit canopy is ridiculously large ;)

Looking forward to the 1930, for the build process as much as the finished model.

Its one of the things that always griped at me about the look of the firespray.

The canopy looks too large.

And I always thought it would look better with bigger wings.

So it was nice to get around to " having a play with the shape "

Thanks Ian.

All the best,

Barry.

This is amazing Barry! For some reason it reminds me of Samus from Metroid.
