They look cool! May they be involved in many a bloody conflict. May the planets see the winking of C-beams glittering as fleets clash in their orbits. |

You have to admire someone so dedicated. Nice but too much money for me |

There's a 2300AD Suffren on there too, based off a 3d-model built by Ian Stead from the deckplans I did for the new Mongoose 2300AD Ships of the French Arm. That ALpha and Beta are built from Ian's models too. |

Very neat! Now if only someone did the Kafer ground vehicles . . . In 15mm, of course! |

Grimm, They are from shapeways. There are several different suppliers and a wide range of prices and sizes. One page has some 4 inch (101mm) fictional planets that are very nice, but too large and expensive. If they had been about 1 inch (25mm) the size and price would have been okay. |

Also, click on the materials as there is a choice of three types with the most expensive shown. |

I wish the planets were a little bigger. I am using 1.5" hexes so maybe a 5 cm planet might work. |
