I prefer my ships to be metal  But I've lost a resin fleet to the Australian sun, so have been forever burned by the flimsy stuff. |

As a fellow occupant of the Sunny Down-Under, I would be concerned with heat-deaths too (proactively, in this case, since I've been un/fortunate enough to never own tiny resin spaceships). I suppose both have pros et contra, of course. The modelling pros and cons are fairly self-evident (pinning, overall mass, painting) but what's the difference from a manufacturing perspective? Does it make a lot more sense to choose one over the other? |

I think weight is a major issue when it comes to models that are a bit larger like cruisers and such. |

I can tell you that metal BFG capital ships were a nightmare. Half the reasoning as to buying chinacast, even when they were still on sale from GW, was simply for the weight |

Lance Destroyer as good as ready, any final feedback before I ship it off for printing?

Did these 6mm ones a whole while back... http://i.imgur.com/vArBAcQ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/d1BQeBb.jpg They were based on the 28mm version I did, maybe I should just shrink the 28mm ones and be done with it... http://i.imgur.com/wdOUtKm.jpg http://i.imgur.com/0YM9eF8.jpg http://i.imgur.com/KIBZ49X.jpg http://i.imgur.com/tdKTVe0.jpg http://i.imgur.com/eb0lHJx.jpg Not sure if I should shrink them to 6mm or do them in 15mm. Might make some fun stuff to shoot at in smaller scale skirmish games. |

Inspired by the news of Necromunda floating around and by Samsonov's excellent 6 mm Necromunda, I was thinking the other day that it would be nice if there were some 6 mm creations a bit like the GW Mechanicus Ruststalkers. These guys would make very nice robo-fighters in that kind of style! |

Started working on my tribute/interpretation of a Kill Ship. Also heavily influenced by that Blood Angels ship from Blood Quest. The craft has been dubbed the 'Felis class Stealth Ship'. It's a tiny bugger (9.25mm tall, 29.01mm long, 9.89mm wide) that carries weapons that can exterminate entire planets or elite units (including assassins) meant to take out specific targets. A very fast, stealthy, and deadly ship, but totally vulnerable once discovered.      And compared to some of the other ships I've done. https://i.imgur.com/TzmcmiM.jpg Left (top to bottom): Lynx class Destroyer, Pardinus class Lance Destroyer, Felis class Stealth Ship Right (top to bottom): Panthera class Heavy Frigate, Escort Carrier (still needs a name), Defence Monitor (still needs a name) |

Maybe little too small but overall looks great. |
