I didn't like this scheme all too well. This ship was repainted into one of the ones above:

I would do unspeakable things to be able to do those gem tones and highlighting.

HOLY MOLY. HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

The red/blue/green wing bits were airbrushed (literally as soon as I opened my first airbrush). It's been used for applying primer since. Bodywork and canopies are done by hand.

You can do the effect by hand by layering increasingly brighter colors on top of each other (see example ) and I do want to do a write-up on that for the Runewars forums but that won't happen until February (moving).

Got the inspiration for this theme from a Boba Fett image I found online. I contracted someone to paint them for me in they turned out exactly how I wanted.

That is a beautiful Firespray.

Can you post the online image for reference?

Thanks Force! Sure thing. Here's where the inspiration came from. I can also get you the contact info for who painted it if you're interested.

Thanks! but I like to try and botch my own paint jobs (kidding)--but I might be able to reproduce your cool scheme.

My Fenn Rau gets obliterated immediately in virtually every game I fly. I decided to paint him up in "Suicide Pink" to reward his status as preferred target. 😉
