I posted some pictures of my scratchbuilt Maghadim ships under the Darkwing's Minis thread, but since there was no thread for Mag-Hive ships, I thought there ought to be one. Here are a few shots of my destroyers and heavy cruisers.

One big happy fleet:

Good to see the Lesser Magellanic Cloud make its debut on the tabletop!
Have you considered doing any other ships from the Maghadim fleet?
I was thinking that, for the "small" collar used on the C and HDD, it migth be an idea to have the port and starboard nacelles angle up, instead of down; to help give the fleet a bit more variety overall.
Plus, since you have the BC's large collar done already, all you'd need is to work out the FF's hull pieces in order to put together a CL.
Oh, and one photo request; if you have any Andromedan minis on hand, could you be able to show how they look when lined up against your newly-hatched Maghadim force? _________________ FC Omega Conversion Project:

I have indeed been working out sizes for the FFs and CLs. Once I get them worked out, they will join the fleet. That is a good idea about turning the nacelles up for the BC. I hadn't thought of that, but I see myself experimenting with that when I get the basics worked out.
As for the photo request...here you go!
With and Intruder and Conquistador:
Another angle:
And the others with a Python and Cobras:

Oh, to be clear, I meant the C (Cruiser); the DD hull with the small collar. (The BC is the DD with the large collar, which you already have set up).
Although, of course, whichever way "up" or "down" the small and large collars go would also spill over to the CL and HDD.

Thank you kindly.
(Hopefully, I'll get the chance to do something constructive with those WIP LMC rules; it would be neat to see how that matchup would work out in a FC context.) _________________ FC Omega Conversion Project:

As promised/threatened, there are more Maghadim ships on the workbench.
This batch includes at least one example of each ship class listed in Module C5, except for the AuxCV. _________________ Let's get DANGEROUS!
