Well I have been having fun working on some spaceships for Stars & Lasers. These are the first ships I have designed so I can't wait to see what they look like printed out. I may still adjust a couple of small bits but on the whole I am pleased with how they look. I have put some pictures of them on my site with an explanation of what they are or could be. link

Not bad. I mean, they're not really exciting, but they're perfectly serviceable. |

Within the limits of the scale (1/10000) and what appears to be a filament printer, they look very good. At least as nice as the files being sold on WargameVault.com by the vendor. Nicely done. |

Interesting – modular design so the sort of thing a busy spaceyard could crack out in bulk – and very glad you didn't do the aerodynamic thing – makes no sense in space |

@emckinney thanks, yeah I agree not really exciting but they are my first attempt so fairly pleased with them. @Dan Cyr thanks. @Frederick thanks, I do like the idea of big bulky spaceships, they also look like they could survive a battle. |

Good looking ships. Will they be available for others? |

I have always thought that David Weber's versions of spaceships in his books caught the more "realistic" look, not the things with wings and fins that so many designers like. |

@williamb thanks, yes they will be for others once I have get their sizes right and check that they print ok. @ Dan Cyr I sort of agree as I like the blockier looking ships more than the ones with wings and fins, but having said that I have to admit that I do have lots of both types of ships among my fleets. |

What program are you using to design these? |

@Bozkashi Jones thanks. @Keifer113 it is a program called Asset Forge, great program for building quick simple items for games or for 3D printing. |
