I've also started working on the Destroyers whilst adding more details to the Frigates...

That little extra detail pushes them over the line from "cool!" to "kick ass!"

Started thinking about more variant components. One of them carries a whole bunch of turrets, basically your 'flak component', allowing this frigate to take out waves of incoming fighters and bombers. Still needs a whole lot of work though.

Continuing on this I'd like to do a hull variant for the frigate, removing the torpedo tubes and add a type of prow mounted gun. But that's something for later (same as the new broadside variant components)

More work on the stations, I imagined them to be more cities in orbit rather than mere weapons platforms. It also gives you that sense of scale the models clearly need. :)

And I've started working on some boarding pods as well, decided to go for both a closed and opened variant.
