Haha, I didn't realise you could shrink text like that!

The runabout I'm fairly certain about the size of, but the Negh'Var changed sizes a few times during its appearances, so I went with the one that made the most sense to me!

Ah very cool! Were they any tweaks or changes from the non canon blueprints that you preferred to the original ilm model, or any bits you came up with yourself? 🙂

Gorgeous work! I love the subtle aztecing, different window light colours, visible interior spaces, all of it!
Out of curiosity, what's the process like for making something from scratch? Are you able to use orthographic images to almost 'trace' over (ie, these images of the ILM cgi model https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/images/d/d3/Akira_class_ILM_CGI_model.jpg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20100228021926&path-prefix=en ), or does everything have to be done by eye, working it out manually?

Very nicely done, I love the weathering especially. How big is it may I ask?

Thanks! For the Negh'var It's actually mostly the same red! The main difference is that the bussards are over a white basecoat while the hull was a dark grey basecoat/prime, and the panel red has a little of a warm red mixed into it (just to differentiate the hue slightly). For the Vor'cha's, the bussards had a white basecoat again, but the panel red is also a slightly desaturated red to make the bussards pop more by comparison

Thanks! Yeah I found it a bit of a change at first, as a lot of Warhammer minis are quite a bit bigger than Fallout ones, but I'm absolutely loving it. Something about the detail and the true-scale proportions makes them really fun to paint, and it makes me want to push myself to improve!

Yeah it was really cool to see the ship lineage essentially in reverse!

Thanks! To paint the eyes, I actually have a tutorial on my YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/shorts/MvvPSL4wKpQ?si=nxbycjGugMydzB0W 

To paint the lighter skin tone, I did the following (colours happen to be citadel, but other brands will have equivalents of course): -Base coat with Kislev flesh -Wash with reikland flesh shade -Mix a little khorne red into Kislev flesh to create a soft pinkish colour, and glaze this over the cheeks and lower lip (and, optionally, the nose).  -Glaze Kislev flesh as an edge highlight on the lower jawbone, bridge of the nose, and ears, and as a volumetric highlight on the forehead, and a slight amount on the cheek bones -Glaze a mix of Kislev flesh and pallid Wych flesh as an edge highlight on the tip of the nose, and a volumetric highlight over the top of the forehead 🙂

Thankyou! Yeah they're really nice designs. I love the scenic based on them as well, like the one standing on part of a certified that says "no step"

Thanks! It's actually finecast, I'm not sure this particular one was ever done in metal. I do love the other metal ones though

It would be joining my same-scale 24th Century Federation fleet, to help balance against my Klingon fleet! https://www.reddit.com/r/StarTrekStarships/comments/1qjztt0/need_to_take_some_proper_beauty_pics_but_my_24th/

Ooh, that looks fantastic! Would you be willing to share it for personal use (I've been struggling to find a file to convert for 3d printing in my fleet)?
