Yeah, cool design. But I think it would even look better without the pointy prow lance.


lol @ osjclatchford: so this will be the last ship?  ;)
For your information: you will never stop! BWHUAHAAHA.

Yeah I got that....



It's in my blood or something man. I've even got rid of a load of old models tother day to make room for more ships lol! Same old story; Very small house. Very little room...

But yeah a version of that ship without the prow Lance would be a nice optional idea...

Kit has been approved and submitted to Vanguard Miniatures already. As for removing the prow lance, I'd imagine you could always cut it up and fill up the gap with a tiny bit of greenstuff. #bringingconvertingbacktothishobby :P

In the meantime...Vanguard Miniatures has been printing some of my existing and new ship designs, these will be cast in resin later this year hopefully.

Cool c,c,c,c,cool cool, cool!

"Later this year" :( shit man that's a long time to wait for the panthera to be restocked. But resin ships make my converting much easier and just looking at those proto-casts had got me drooling! Your work is worth the wait every time...

I have no clue if Vanguard will restock the metal models up until the resin ones are available. I'd recommend asking it on FB if you're on it. :)

Note that the modular transportship (left on the bottom picture) is the size of a heavy escort, but it can be stretched out to be the size of a light cruiser, or bigger if you're crazy enough. Here's how the kit works:


In the meantime work on the Cybershadows Light Cruiser also continues:

This is if you just put two transport components in front of each other, in theory you could make it as long as the model's base / balance allows it.

Can't wait to see what you'll come up with once the transport ship is released!

In the meantime...I've just sent this for 3d printing...
