The Shipyard / My Firestorm Armada wips

« on: September 30, 2017, 12:15:14 pm »

A continuation of my wips in a new home. Like others just going to combine all FSA stuff under the one thread, and with the announcement a month ago I have a good stack of stuff to get through.

Stopped working on my RSN fleet last year so its about time I finish it, which is almost completely done (well, as far as a sensible collection goes anyways) and painted.

Need to figure out what paint combo I used, I know the base is Averland sunset but from there I'm going to need to go back through the yellows I have to find the right mix. May of saved it to a PC doc(fingers crossed) but lucky enough  I still have some of the main paint in a squeeze bottle to matching the different combo should't be to hard. 

Anyways, who reads this waffle  , lets get to the toy spaceships.

Fleet as it stands painted.




Battleship with Heavy Cruiser escort






Heavy cruisers



Cruisers



Frigates and escorts



and whats up next.


Few additions to the Dreadnought, going to give some visible guns and point defense turrets. Which should have fully cured by now(made from greenstuff)

Also have a Terran fleet which is a fair bit along, but will post that when finished painting this lot.

Roll Call / Another FSA fleet Admiral reporting in from the SG domain.

Hello all, hope you are all well.

My return to Firestorm Armada couldn't be at a worse time, I was over on the SG community forum but have't posted in a while(this time last year) Was progressing though my RSN fleet and still am due to not having painted in a while(a warm sunset yellow with dark red scheme if anyone recalls). Luckly I have what I wanted from that range. 

Been collecting FSA stuff from way back when the first starter boxes were out, bought the first version Terran fleet. Which has since expanded.

Hoping to make a new space port here on this community. Will be heading down to the shipyard later to open project thread with the older stuff I have (just to start a fresh and share).

Due to SG closing I've been snapping up a few different fleets while I can for now, in case the product never returns.

Game community wise, I live in south wales UK. The FSA action where I live is pretty much non existent other then the odd game with a friend and the missus(hopefully soon, my kids as well). Not that I've let that stop me collecting.

Well, thats my bit for now, any questions feel free to ask.
