Been working on a miniature thought I'd share it here, i know this isn't a hotbed of BFG but i know a lot of people here play multiple SG games. This is my vision for a heresy era marine heavy frigate, more updates to come C&C welcome.

Great scratchbuilding!

Have you seen the Pre-Heresy ship on sale on shapeways? It's a nice model but I prefer the guns on yours.

It inspired this model, the detail is not too hot on that mini i agree.

Thanks for the kind words guys glad you like it!

Quick update, i finished the carrier sides. I'm not sure if i will do a lance turret side yet. Still tons of detail to finish on the ship as well as the flying bridge behind the rear turret.

Yiou should also post up a log on the Resin Addict forums, where Mangozac has designed many BFG ships from plasti-card and putty. He/they might be able to offer experienced tips.

Okay long delayed update, i ripped apart the rear of the ship and redid the whole thing. C&C is welcome, i also have flat spots over the arched windows on either side, i was thinking that space could go for unit emblems on them so was thinking about leaving them blank. Any ideas?

Thanks man, i really can't wait till this is done so i can move onto the next project.

Okay so i have hit a creative block and i need some help on what to do next for this build. I added structure down the front of the prow for ramming, but thats about all i can think of to do. Well not true i have thought of maybe putting some wings on the top front with a skull or an aquila. I did want to kind of make this miniature generic to avoid grandma wendy issues. So i'm coming here to you guys for help on what i can do just a couple small things i'm thinking, or just cast as is and make conversion prows like a big ass cannon prow and torp tubes prow also.
