I'm also worried about three points mainly:
- The freebies from campaign 4 (that haven't been shipped with the rest of the stuff); - The plastics from campaign 1; - The custom commander models from campaign 1.
But I hope everything will turn out fine! |

This doesn't sound very good....

| No job is too big, no fee is too big. It looks beautiful, and definitely not just a ship but a mini worthy of a rogue trader. I can't afford it myself, but I'm really glad you're going ahead and posting it anyway. Keep in mind that prices on Shapeways will gradually drop; when eventually it starts ... |

| In what material did you print the model? FXD or FUX? Hey there! I printed it in Frosted Ultra Detail; I haven't tried Extreme Detail yet, I'll probably try it on some ordnance! I'd like to post a couple of pictures of something different from the usual; a painted model! Some time ago I found again... |

| Thanks Jimmy, I'm glad you like it! I was wondering how to arrange the armaament\bridge combinations on shapeways; I was thinking on using the first bridge on the older combinations (batteries+torpedoes and hangar+batteries+antennas), and using the Taj Mahal bridge on the newer ones (lances+huge can... |

| (continuing...) Now for the sour notes: why did I call it my most beautiful mistake? Because it is, simply put, too big to be affordable. Even acknowledging that battleships lately are hard to come by, this guy would end up costing around 110 Euros on Shapeways, and this would be more than even I wo... |

| Hi guys, Thank you, I'm glad you like it! I think it's due time for me to show you the big thing that I mentioned a few posts before, or, as it happens to be, my most beautiful mistake... When I started working on a Space Merchant battleship, I had a pretty clear idea of how I wanted it to be: being... |

| Ooh I like the chimera Armand. It would make a nice supreme commander transport or blitz objective. Personally I'd prefer the dish to be the lower profile type, with the top and bottom chopped off, rather than being a full circle (if that makes sense), but each to his own! Nice work on the ships to... |

| Did it! Here's the updated torpedo frigate with the wing moved a little back; it's not much, but I agree that it looks better now: Torpedo 3.jpg And now for something completely different! This is something I read about in a BL book (I think one from the Dark Angels trilogy): a custom command chimer... |

I see what you mean! Actually, it's a trick of the extreme perspective of sketchup, in truth there's a massive gap of 0,2 mm between the gun barrel and the tip of the wing!
I'll try to move it backwards, it shouldn't be a problem  |

Thank you!
I've also adapted the three frigates to the same style; these should be ok to put on Shapeways, I think...

| Hey everyone! During the holidays I found some time to do a little modelling, I hope you'll enjoy some pictures! To start with, I've redone the Bakara's chariot prow from scratch, following the suggestions received; this one is a little smaller, with side fins reminiscent of the Tau designs. The tes... |
