I got my Command Carrier and Destroyers ordered from Shapeways using the "White Strong and Flexible" Material. link These are the Jovian "Europa" Command Carrier and the Jovian "Garon" Class Escort. The Command Carrier is about 2.25 inches long and the escorts are right at 1 inch. Absolutely Superb detail! I see no need to get the more expensive materials. I already own 4 of the Lanze Class Strike Carriers and these feel even more detailed. I am thoroughly satisfied with the purchase. They are a "little" on the expensive side, but the price includes shipping from the Netherlands (Which only took three days!) So they are certainly in the ballpark. If you are looking to build a fleet that few other people will have, I highly recommend these. |

I'm rather curious what "blue jean look strong and flexible" material is… |

I want to add that "White, Strong and Flexible" for material appears to be in regards to the color and usefulness, not any inherent flexibility of the actual material, which is quite rigid. I imagine blue Jean would simply be a blue jean color of the same material. |

Blue Jeans, terracotta and orange colors are all after-print dye jobs on the WS&F material. |
