While I'm working out the contretemps (or brouhaha, or kerfuffle, if you will) with Shapeways and Amarillo Design Bureau, I thought I might as well preview the latest designs that I had been finishing up before getting the C&D order.

The Cardashians:

As usual, more info on my monument to modern techno-narcissism (a.k.a., my blog):

Also, after a discussion thread on the Lead Adventure forums, I decided to whip up a starter pack, which I'm calling the "MicroFleet Skirmish Pack". It includes five ships from each of three different factions and a starbase for them to fight over! I figure this may help give some folks the opportunity to try playing a few games with these teensy-tiny ships before deciding if they want to invest in more of them.

Thanks!

And since Shapeways hasn't pulled it down yet, here's that skirmish pack:

The pack includes the following:

Coalition:
1 dreadnought (DN)
2 heavy cruisers (CA)
1 light cruiser (CL)
1 frigate (FF)

Praetorians:
1 dreadnought (DN)
2 heavy cruisers (CA)
1 light cruiser (CL)
1 frigate (FF)

Space Mongols:
1 dreadnought (DN)
1 battleship (BB)
1 heavy cruiser (CA)
1 light cruiser (CL)
1 frigate (FF)

1 "Kay-7" deep space outpost

I'm thinking that I'll put together a couple more of these packs, such as one with the TNG Coalition, Cardashians, Do'Minions or Space Mongols, and the DS9-type space station. I'm open to suggestions for any others!

That looks interesting, Jav98. I have yet to take the plunge on Shapeways. What is your impression on the three different mediums?
