Very curious to see what you;ll do with these ones though! :)

Yay! Update with wave 2 with escorts, cruisers and heavies. And lots and lots more green balls...

Escorts






Six new cruisers


And the big boys magnetized (except for Repulsive). Am really beginning to appreciate the Vengeance class Grand Cruisers, which is good because I bought five of them...

Holy crap! That's awesome!

Really curious to see those Dreadclaw pods painted up.

In the meanwhile, you probably have seen the latest official artwork of the Terminus Est right?

Thanks guys!

Had not see this artwork before. Where is it from?

New art shows full on goopy, so my ships don't look overdone compared to the new pic.

The new artwork is from the Index Chaotica: Terminus Est, which is basically a short eBook available from Black Library.

Your wish is my command! Basic paint done, just lots of detail to go...
Merry Christmas to all!











And the whole fleet:
