Thanks,
Glad you like them.
As you can see Pvc is a very versatile material to use to build virtually anything ( & you find find loads of different thickness in a scrap yard for free :):):) )
Nothing beats building your own .

Tell us about the digs. I've touted a long time the use of toy and model airplane ordinance, which I think the one on the right is But the one on the left is another kettle of fish, methinks. Doug |

No problem Beast,
Both Digs were made from 1/48 or 1/35th ( not sure which scale or where I had got them as I had them for ages )modern aircraft missiles / tanks.
I have bigger/longer ones in the set but these were the best size & looked the part perfectly.
Assembled then pieces of square/round sprue attached to them to make hull & turrets.
Very simple to build. Z |

Exactly, and if one loves nef's, entirely possibly that love extends to spaceships. Which some pieces are even better for… Still, there are Brigade Models that look like half a bomb/missile was used as the hull. One can take that track as well. Doug |

Very nice! I'm less secure with trying the fiddly bits, though the amount of tiny, plastic junk parts I have… I'm looking for the shortcuts, though. Trying to match up bomb-hulls to spare Panzerschiffe-ground-down-to-superstructure, for instance. 1/72 + 1/2400 = 1/1200 ;->= As for ships out of weopen boxes, I tend to divide into Straight bombs and weopen pods: VSF digs and nefs, Missiles, especially with canards, retro space (XL-5-ish), Most of the rest: SF space. There's a Triple Ejector Rack in the 1/72 Hasagawa II that screams fast space patrol ship. Doug |

Thanks Doug,
Unfortunately with the usual amount of nice/useful junk gamers tend to hoard/collect through the years, we tend to forget what we have.
Just imagine the stuff you can build from a modern fighter jet kit with all those sleek lines. like so

takes another stab at building a more perfect flight stand.
