Fabulous Fighter Factory Fired Up
Klavs has completed his latest physical model updates, and his Shapeways store now carries an extensive lineup of classic fighters. The Hornet, Salthi and Scimitar are available in one triple-pack of small 1/600 models, and they're followed by another threesome that includes the Rapier, Dralthi and Raptor. Each ship is also available in a larger 1/300 format, and this size also includes a swift Ferret as well. These look amazing! Who wouldn't want one on their desk? Hit up Terran Fleet Supply for details.Ok guys, the new ship packs are live. All ships except the Raptor have been prototyped, so order that one at your own risk until I make sure that she prints ok.
I reiterate that these ships are available at cost, meaning I don't make any money off them, just want you guys to have them sitting on your desk if you want.
I really wish I could get the costs down. Costs are by volume of the model, so those pesky big cat ships are always a bit pricey. It's just not worth printing them in a lower quality material, you'd lose tons of detail and have to spend a million years sanding to get rid of the terraces.
The 1/600 scale ships are packaged like the old Scifi Micro Machines, it's cheaper this way for anybody that wants more than one, so that's why they're in packs of 3.
The 1/300 ships are printed singly. I can't afford to prototype all the 1/300 scale ships, but the new 1/300 scale Hornet looks great! Tons of details, more pics tomorrow. When the sun comes back up so I can get some good photos.
