LimeyDragon, Those are just free-hand designs. I used the Klingon Imperial emblem and then a few numbers from a Klingon alphabet/language resource online. Dave

My Klingon flagship. This finishes off the squadron box.

There's a UK GenCon? I admit that I did not know that.

I apologize if I'm missing something and this has been asked, but do we know if there are any SF events/demos planned for GenCon? Dave

Geoff, Both fleets look amazing! Really nice job. Definitely an inspiration to finish my Klingons post haste. And yeah, the base markings look great too- very "Star Trek". Keep posting stuff, Dave

Big D- I stole them from Paramount, so no problem there! I wonder if we can get any hints as to what a Gen Con event might look like. A typical 1,000 point tournament? Maybe a big multi-player game?

I suspected as much. Thanks. Plenty of time to finish the fleet (in progress).... Bad shot of the space-docked ship:

Is it too early to ask if they'll be any Gen Con events/tournaments?

I'm just gonna give you my personal perspective and that of my miniature wargaming friends, who aren't terribly familiar with the SFB universe and its history. This isn't meant to be judgmental or critical, but I think it's important to realize that there are potential players for this game out...

Jean, I'm certainly not advocating anyone do anything outside the agreed confines of the partnership. And I understand both ADB and Mongoose have previously agreed to the boundaries they can operate in. My point is this: there has clearly been a decision made to expand the fan base of the SFB...

I guess I don't understand why these things have to be mutually exclusive. The whole point of a table-top miniatures game is aesthetics. In the same way some SFB players don't "get" the miniatures thing, I can't wrap my head around the cardboard counters. i'm not knocking it and I think...

First, I apologize if I'm being daft here- I'm not real familiar with the evolution of the SFB miniature lines. My question is does the designation of 2500 have anything to do with the scale? Or rather, are the new 2500 ships in a particular scale, like 1:2500? I'm wondering because I just...

Well, I certainly appreciate the comments- and I seriously do not mind any critical appraisal of the scheme. Believe me, I know a few purists who have very strict views and opinion on exactly this kind of thing. I know SFB fans who are more adamant about "historical" details than actual...

Agis- thanks, I'm a big fan of your stuff (for years now), so high praise coming from a painter such as yourself! I will certainly keep you updated. I expect to finish up the Klingon squadron this weekend, then back to the airbrush for base coats on the Federation. I appreciate the comments...

Been following the ACTA:SF progress and I'm looking forward to finally playing soon. In the mean time, I've painted up a couple "prototypes" (meaning I was trying to see if my airbrush skills were up to the challenge). I figured I'd post a couple shots here. I admit that I went for a more...
