Like he said. No freighter minis to measure, so no decals anytime soon. Also, many things need to get done first.

I'm in the home-stretch of working up art for the latest batch of Federation decals for Starline 2500 (BB, DNL, CB).

Tony is working out the bugs on our ALPS printer and finalizing his art for Starline 2500 Klingons.

We're both also processing lots of orders for existing products. Tax returns are coming to people in the US that got one. Quite a few folks are feeling like buying decals with theirs, which we certainly appreciate Smile

Meanwhile, we are both balancing a lot of "real life" demands. That's why we never commit to sales on things we don't have 100% ready to go. If one or both of us has a "life event", we don't leave anybody hanging.

Once the current logjams clear, we want to proceed with decals for Starline 2500 Romulans, Gorns, and General Units. Kzintis are also a definite possibility, and might happen before Romulans. Those belly birds will take a l-o-n-g time to create art for that is our own.

We also intend to swing back and service the Starline 2400 market. However, it's not as simple as just scaling down our bigger Starline 2500 art and pushing "print". The minis are all a little bit different and would have to be adjusted, one at a time.

We do have some art assets for Starline 2400 Feds, Klingons, and General Units already (from years ago), so we won't be starting from scratch.

Thanks for the detailed replies guys.

You know, I asked thinking that the Freighter mini had been issued! Ooops!

But of course, I understand where you are coming from, real life et al.

Any recent progress on the freighter mini decals?

If we had a freighter mini to measure...

Anyone with a small freighter?
You want to sell it?

How about rent it?
I'm willing to trade a decal sheet for the chance to photo / measure an actual Starline 2500 small freighter miniature.
