Feedback needed!
 
Quote:
Hi people I'm looking for some feedback, I have in now masters of the little civilian ships which are currently cast on to sprues as seen in the first picture of the original prints, obviously they do not come with stands as I was anticipating that people would want to drill them and mount them on wire.

It occurs to me now that customers may prefer cast on stands to save a lot of labour and so I'm looking at detaching them from the sprues and casting on the flight stand show in the second picture. This stand will fit standard epic bases with the 6mm recess.

The other option is to provide these bases loose and you drill and pin them to the models yourself, what would be the preferred option please. Models are around 20mm long.

Is the Panthera II (beautiful model BTW) a SM Strike Cruiser equivalent? The civilian ships also look amazing!

Its not a cruiser class ship but a heavy frigate, I guess it would serve as a strike vessel, the model is 56mm's long.

The new components will also be available separately for those who wish to update their existing models, this set should be available within a week or so.

I guess it could work as a small Strike Cruiser proxy. I imagined that ship to be a bit bigger though, more Light Cruiser sized.

Actually after digging out my old BFG strike cruisers which are not in fact cruisers in size the Panthera is pretty much the same size as the old strike cruiser model, so yes Panthera would make a good match for strike cruiser after all.

Then I'm glad to hear that. As a collector I'd like to build someday a small SM fleet. Have you got plans to release bigger Novan Elites' warships?
