I thought ti was a good death, He at least gave her the honor of a face to face death whereas the others were just put down effectively indiscriminately like dogs.

This is not a hijak, this was meant to discuss the destruction of Kilrah one way or another. and Im ammused with the result. :D

Merry Christmas! And I finally finished processing these images. Fighters are fighter scale 30-40mm while the midway is about 90mm long if I remember correctly.

Thank you, that was a fun read!

I showed her the calculation and she said while innacurate its a good first step. She pointed out some flaws, similar to Chernikov's post While the core of the earth may be mostly Iron, the surface is mostly silicate. Effectively a precipitate or separation of lighter and heavier elements...

Ok, so I wanted to do a crude calculation for the fun of it. Im sure correct answer is orders of magnitude off, but still, orders of magnitude for astrophysics is accurate in many subfields. In another thread it was questioned if Kilrah would still be so glowing hot if it exploded. This...

Whats the point of a table game about the liberation of Kilrah.. if there isnt a Kilrah! well what remains of it anyway. Its just a big hunk of styrofoam I hacked up and used polyurethane glue to foam out and hold together the core. Pictures of the midway and some of her fighters...

Indeed, the papercraft are pretty cool!

I also forgot to include the cost of 3d sculpting. I just learned how to do this for this project after giving up on finding others who sold these models. So hand sculpting costs I belive around 100-200 USD per inch, roughly, Vs 3d Modeling takes me (non expert) about 2-20 hrs with a mean...

RP isnt the cheapest. The tradeoffs are as follows (IMO) RP- done by shapeways *SWF is fairly cheap but lacks detail and is bumpy, *Detail material gives better detials but if you look closely you see the layers along the z axis. Ive looked into RP through sites outside of shapways that...

I got some of the fleet scale fighters painted. These fighters are smaller than a penny, generally. First the Confed fleet, granted as I represent 1 fighter model = 10 actual fighters this is way too many for the midway. But there will be more carriers soon and other ships. Next...

The bug fighters arent for sale because SW keeps telling me they arent printable due to minor features here and there. I have been making them thicker, and therefore uglier but each time (we are on attempt 6 now) they find a corner that I thought was fine based on their design rules and they...

Ok Finally processed the kitty images. I have a midway nearly complete and a tallahase. I also just finished the rendering of a kraken and hope to get it in a few weeks. I cant wait to paint that one. Thanks for the comments guys. I plan to use these for a fleet game at an upcomming con...

I have a mess of images to process from this and 4 of the fighters, but here is a quickie for Thanks giving.

I just got one of these painted. This is the reason I made any of these. I love wing commander and wanted to paint my own touch to those ships. But sadly no one made them so I had to if I wanted to paint them. I have a few kilrathi ships about 50% done. Click on attachments to enlarge...

Two more The long guns are pins, the actual model has very short guns as long guns are not printable at that aspect ratio. The dreadnaught is about 90mm long

Samples arrived and primed Ok here is a big batch of ships ive ordered to verify. these were all printed in detail material with a bit of work to sand(600 grit wet dry) and prime. The store location is http://www.shapeways.com/shops/dreamfoundry And yes prices include shipping world wide...

I agree completely about popularity and sphere of awareness. As for wc1 models, a shop will offer them, hopefuly within a month and we shall see how they come out. Ill post in here when those are available.

Well after a lot of effort Ive loaded a few models. Ill probably keep it available until I tire of it or it seems like there is no interest which will probably be pretty soon. http://www.shapeways.com/shops/dreamfoundry And soon there should be some pewter models available from...

Indeed. One viable option Id be happy with is to offer them at no markup (shapeways makes the only profit based ontheir standard materials percentage profit) if I had an assurance that as long as I made no profit on the sales that I can offer them. If EA wanted a liscence fee or to make profit...
