Is it me or have my images from Imgur stopped loading?

Yup, could definitely see them earlier [hence the likes], but no longer...very odd !

EDIT: If I refresh the page it looks like the frame for them appears briefly, then replaced with white space...

I concur. I tried viewing on both Chrome & Firefox with the same results.

The cloaking effect is really the best I've ever seen... or not seen...
Don't worry, it'll work out.

The colors and paint schemes on those ships are really bold! They just demand attention. Good work!

Replaced everything with direct links, hopefully that'll be more stable !

Looks great! Really like the engine glowe.

The star cockpit, and for some reason the red Protectorate cockpit, is really awesome. Also those IG88s! Everything is great (especially the engines), but those in particular I really like.

Nice work. Great colour blending, and I love the logo work. Top stuff.

sir
your blending is outstanding
i really like your colour choices
your Ghost is very nice
and the starfield bases tie it all in
Quality mate...Quality

Very nice engines, I really like the glow effect.

If you'd like to share, how did you made the empire and black sun insignia? Is it freehand work or did you use some sort of airbrush template? Thank you.

Gorgeous Paint Jobs Vindicare...........nice use of your Airbrush too !

I do like your repaints, but I really like what you have done with your bases, the star field looks very effective.

reat job.

All the best,

Barry.

Hiya guys, cheers for all the feedback ! : )

Happy to share how I did the insignia... there's a couple of different methods being used across the models..

For the Firespray, Jumpmasters, VCX100 and the Decimator, I used airbrush stencils that I picked up off of eBay.. they do them in a variety of size.. and I've had mixed results with them.. sometimes the paint sticks to the finer details on the stencil, or its really tricky to get them flat against the model (they are semi adhesive, but even so, I end up with some over spray.. )

For the Shadowcaster, that was just lots and lots of tape...

On the Protectorate fighters... those are Nail Art decals !... I found a website that does custom nail art decals to order (there's tons of them), so I gave them the Black Sun Cartel symbol and had them make me a set... which comes in different sizes, so suitable for loads of different ships!

The space bases were easy... sprayed them black (can do that with a spray can if need be).. then just strayed a dark blue and darkish purple in random places on the base... then took a old toothbrush, added some white paint to the brushes and ran my thumb over the bristles to flick the paint at the base.. nice random pattern and different size "stars" so it looks more natural ; )

Took my Scum to a tourny at the weekend... came 16th out of 18.. but my Shadowcaster took best painted !

Thank you very much Vindicare!

Previously I only used masking tape or freehand, but your methods are something I definitely want to try

A few WIP shots for the Shadow Caster and Ghost.
