Awesome! Where did you get the cool looking shuttle miniature? And are those two small capships also scratchbuilt?? |

Looking VERY sharp! Nice work! -Will |

The two "capships" are from Shapeways (I think). Tim |

Those are two Longbow Bombers (in scale!) from Shapeways. in 5150 Fighter Command they are "Heavy Fighter" Class Bombers with 4x Torpedoes, 4 Forward guns and an Aft gun battery. Slow and turns like a Pig, but watch out any cap ship it runs across! |

The Shuttle is actually a Babylon 5 Micro Machine Earth Force Shuttle! I needed something to schlep Admiral Tolwyn around. |

Whereas, I recognized all save the ones in the upper right. Doug |

Leland those are custom ones I make with 3/32 brass tube and a 1.5" wooden craft disk. The arc marker on the base is my own custom for 5150 FC. |

TheBeast those are Shapeways Z-95 Headhunters from Star Wars! I loved the sculpt so I added them as superiority fighters. |

Not to steal Ed's thunder, but I know that 5150: Carrier Command is in layout. This book will let you play the role of a star carrier commander, have more options in terms of how you manage your ship and its fighter squadrons, their weapons and mission load outs, it has electronic warfare rules, a full campaign and lots of other fun "chrome" for your 5150: Fighter Command games. |

Yup I am aware of that! Hopefully ed will have something to show at Millennium Con in November and my game of 5150 FC will drive some sales. |

Warlock: Where exactly on Shapeways do I find the Longbows? My search skills aren't up to the task. |

Here you go: link He has a ton of Fighters up there. |
