Thanks for the comments Eberious.
I am enjoying the colour match to my asteroids
I see your point about the heat, I guess technically the glow should radiate from the contre of the nozzle
I went from the outside because it is wider there and gave me more room to blend

So small ice blue update on the Veydreth





More thinking to be done on these.

Thanks for looking, comments appreciated

After many a distraction I finally got my Terran Station finished
It's a really nice sculpt, but I had to leave the Flat acrylic parts off.
Their smoothness does not suit the look imho.








At the moment I am still distracted with painting non-ships for friends
But I am trying to finish my Veydreth ships.

Thanks for looking, comments appreciated

Loose glue in a storage tray would be terrible. Luckily I have not had any issues.

Small update for me, I have been painting some warmachine for a friend, distracting me from FSA.

Engines on the Veydreth:










Thanks for looking. Hopefully I will get some time on my Veydreth or Terran soon

Excellent work on the Custom guns, they look great
Fabulous Painting as always

You have done great with the natural lighting, I always struggle with lighting

I look forward to more

Thanks for the comment eberious
We we on the same wavelength, the Veydreth are definitely styled to lie in wait in amongst an asteroid field. Waiting to ambush passing ships.
I have started their Red engine glowing bits. Not much progress though, life getting in the way.

Once again we have the same thoughts.
The Perspex parts on the Terran station are so prominent. Being Flat, detail wise, they stand out from the model, not add to it. They also completely change the shape of the overall model by hiding the inward angles.

I hope to get more time on my station and my Veydreth this weekend, but I also have a Warmachine colour test to do for a friend. Fingers crossed

Thanks for the comments

@Brimat, sounds like a good transportation setup. How do you store your Miniatures?

So, as usual I have a lot of stuff on my workbench












I finished the asteroids (got to post them in the collection)
I have my Asteroid coloured Veydreth in progress
I Started a Terran Base (I am not using the Perspex parts)
And i have lots of stuff waiting to go

Excellent Brushwork and Presentation there.
That's a great looking fleet. Camera flash lights up the engines nicely
Good luck on re-discovering your colours, I know how hard it can be.
I try to keep a document with all my colours used, listed in it.
But sometimes things slip through the cracks

Thanks for sharing and I look forward to the updates

Excellent News about the Acquisition.
Plastic of Resin, whatever, as long as it's not white metal.
It is going to be a really tough set of games to kick off.
Where to even start? I just hope the community gives them lots of time to get each system represented.
