This will be my first ever spaceship game so I went with fleetscale fighters to keep the costs down and because I think they look better next to the capital ships.
All models are from Brigade Models exept the Star Navy Capships which are from Spartan Games.

Here's what I've finished so far

Star Navy light, medium and heavy fighters

Star Navy destroyers

Star Navy carrier

Hishen light, medium and heavy fighters.

Hishen bombers

Hishen assault boats

Hishen heavy cruiser

Hishen carrier

Pirate/ Xeno raiders medium fighters.

Pirate / Xeno raider carrier.

If your mine is my mine than mine is yours!
I actually made enough of these to cover 2 sections.

Cheap and easy asteroids ;-)

Some navigation points for the patrol missions.

One more picture to show the size of the fighters

These look really good, and I am a fan of playing games in smaller scale than intended to reduce cost.

Cool!
Actually I thought about using them as well but I already had the SD plastic ones.
Nice fleet you have there; now to battle!

Very nice.
What are the bases for the tiny fighters made of?

That is an excellent collection and I really enjoyed the little satellites.

@ Space Wizard

The flight stands are made of upside down roofing nails with a disk of magnetic paper glued to the bottom. I painted the board with magnetic paint that way there's less chance of them getting moved about by accident.

@ Louie N

I really enjoyed making them too, I vastly prefer them over tokens.

Nice miniatures! I also like your idea for basing them.

Looking good! I admit that fleet scale for FC has some appeal, and your ship choices are great.

Very nice! How do the fighters compare in size with Studio Bergstrom and GZG?
