Finished the mounting system for the Omen with some velcro, a perfect grade gundam stand I cannibalized and modded to high hell, some good old fashioned red oak that I cut to size and used for stabilizing the entire thing and gorilla glue! Gonna put some starfield on it and finish the base insert, but I love the way it turned out and its height means that it can completely and comfortable pass over small, large and epic ships with no problem. Incredibly imposing. The colossal base I came up with, which is double the width of a normal epic base and an additional large base longer makes for easy movement on a mat. I'm developing two movement dials for her. One will be the normal dial and will have the Omen take turns from the back corners which makes her take wide, sweeping turns. The other will be for Flank speed, which will measure turns from the front and will allow for much tighter turns with virtually no forward movement at all at the cost of less energy gain. The ship is remarkably nimble using a combination of the two movements and can easily fit without crowding too much even on a normal 3x3 mat. Still a ton of work to do, but the mount and movement for her was a huge hurdle I'm happy to say was leapt!

Impressive. Most impressive.

Not to scale; totally unplayable.

Very cool, very jealous.

It being a completely different model of ship from the immobilizer 7 cruiser we see in rebels and elsewhere helps alot! She's a Debilitator class interdictor designed specifically for dealing with groups of fighters and freighters; the sort of thing rebel scum prefer to employ against the empire instead of capital ships.

Thanks! It's downright intimidating flying anything anywhere near it that's for sure.

Friggin' AWESOME!

So awesome. You need to redo that low angle shot with the Omen bearing down on a CR-90. Crush the Rebellion, recover the plans!!

Great idea! Funny enough, my idea for the opening of season 2 of my hotac campaign was having Bail Antilles in the Sundered Heart running from this thing and Irregular squadron having to rescue the senator and crash the Heart into the Omen to give them an opening to escape to hyperspace.

You're welcome! This is very nice work. You should post it in the Painting and Mod forum.

Did yesterday! Still got alot of work to do to it, including some 3d printed rotatable heavy cannons I need to paint and install and some changes to the bridge section, but it's definitely going to look sick when its done!

When you add the new bridge and cannons please post new pics.

Great work. Uh, I mean that is terrible, maybe you should let me take that off your hands.

Serious, that is gorgeous.

I'm a little misty eyed. Great!

Edit: please do keep this updated. Love it

I'll give you a first-born son for it. (I don't actually have any kids, but how hard can stealing one really be?)

Well I guess it is heavier than the other two. I guess I shouldn't be surprised at the base.

If you ever come to So Florida I'm sure we can find a table big enough to an awesome Epic game.

Will you post rules for it, too?

How did you make it? Model? 3D printed? Cardboard?

I have a thread with the preliminary cards and stats for it. Rules for movement and a finalized version including titles, mods and ship specific upgrades will be next.

The ship itself I got from a 3d printer on ebay from russia and assembled and upgraded with parts sourced from various places including several I printed myself.

I'm following this with great interest and enthusiasm.

I'm not sure how difficult this would be but I wonder if you should try to combine everything into one main post like you have in the Mods subforum.

Do you have ship stats yet?
