I am currently working on these minis that I got from VFM. I know they are not ships, but I figure some of you may enjoy them.

I also have some more that I am going to convert to Klingons & Romulans.

Thanks for looking.

Very cool. Nice detail work on the faces, etc. I love the "Spock" figure!

Outstanding work !

Can you share how you did the Vulcan ears ? And which colors are you using to match the Federation shirts ?

Thanks to all!
I redid the Vulcan's ears last night and again today with green stuff. I didn't like the way they looked.
The blue is a mix of GW's enchanted blue ($3.50) and Craft Smart Sailing Sky ($.50). The Craft Smart paint I got at Michael's Hobby store on sale.

Nice work, indeed.

I've seen pictures of those figures before, but for some reason, it hadn't really occurred to me that you could backdate them to the original-series style tunics.

Okay, it is just one mini, Just started on this project.
I took a couple of pics so that one would turn out good.

Looks fantastic. Certainly evokes a certain headstrong Captain quite well.

Nice! Can't wait to see more to match.

Very nice!

Malleman, what kit is that for the Galileo? Is it the AMT kit or something else?

The shuttle is a Johnny Lightning Ledgends of Star Trek Series 1. Working on a couple of projects. I will post pics when I get some more done.

I got some elites recently and decided to make a shadowbox/nightlight for my son with some of them, so here are some pics.

I thinned out the pylons for the CA, added some extra for the D7 boom, and made a Firehawk out of a Sparrowhawk elite.

I got a couple of each and am planning on making CAs out of Lyran and Kizinti FFs and a Gorn DD.

This one if for your viewing pleasure.

Enjoy.

Very cool. The wee one should sleep well now!

I've noticed the flag on your avatar. Could you explain the significance (forgive my ignorance)?

Thats the flag for Acadiana.

We live in Lafayette Parish and thought of using it for Battlegroup Acadiana.
