Very nice work.

On the subject of 3D prints, I've just taken delivery of a new 3D kit of a somewhat larger subject. I don't know how well know it is outside of the UK but, in the late 70s we had a British answer to Star Trek in the form of Blakes 7. Our hero's flew a ship called the Liberator and, despite me being a huge Trek fan I still think, to this day, that it is the best sci-fi starship design of all time.

At 3 feet long, the kit is the same size as the original filming miniature.

One of the 3 'nacelles' temporarily fitted:

and in comparison to the 1/200 Iowa that is now back on my work bench:

Almost a year since this thread had some new life, so here are a bunch of 3d printed figures I painted for our Dorks (dungeons) & Dragons game! Edit, not sure why half the pics are sideways here, they aren't that way on my computer...

This is the last completed project from my day job. This model is typical of what we do: large scale acrylic structures with computer controlled lighting. Scales vary wildly, depending on the size of the building, but this one was 1/96th. My main contribution to the project was the many pieces of furniture, mostly drawn in Rhinoceros v7 and printed on our Epax and Formlabs 3 printers, with some saw and laser work where appropriate.

Trumpeter's 1S91 SURN KUB radar, known to us Cold War vets as the STRAIGHT FLUSH radar for the SA-6 GAINFUL missile system. Trumpeter released the SA-6 TEL several years ago.

Very nice!

I have their 1/350 Millennium Falcon and 1/1000 CR90 Corvette—sure wish the latter was available in the former's scale!

I always forget this thread is here. Over the past month I've finished the following two Bandai 1/72nd scale kits, the B-Wing (limited release Comic Con edition) and the X-Wing, finished as Wedge's Red 2.

Some (space) ships and non-ships. I do have a small fleet of /350 and /700 that I plan to get to, but until then...

The most recent (space) ship to be finished was a Space Battleships Yamato model. Started out as the Yukikazi, but I changed it to the Murasame using the decals from another kit.
Image

Tamiya's 1/48 F4U-1D
Image

The UNCF Kirishima from Yamato 2199.
Image

Tamiya's 1/48 Ki-46 Dinah
Image

The ships of the Iscandar Protectorate Fleet (non-canon Yamato 2199)
Image

The Yamato from 2199, 1/1000
Image

And my redo of the Battlestar Galactica using two Moebius Pegasus models.

W-Model 1/72 resin

Russian SA-12 surface-to-air missile system, combining anti-air and anti-tactical ballistic missile (ATBM) into a single overall system. The 9A82M carries the ATBM missiles. The anti-air missiles are carried by the 9A83 TELAR, but the 9A83 kit I received was unbuildable.

@Kelley, I found the image I made a while ago, realizing it might come in handy. It is a mix of Humbrol and Revell, although colors might vary due to weathering but it's basically what I use for all US equipment.

Thanks, Jeroen! This will come in handy! I will probably need to find an alternative to the Revell paints as I don't have them here.
