I dont know if I like them or not.
What do you guys think.
The grey ship is the humans. The red ship is the birdmen. The green ship are the bugs

The green and red ships are best. Nice work. I bet they will look great on a black star mat.

I suspect that the Photo's may not do them justice: keep that in mind for the comments below:

The Humans don't work for me: that Blue streak just doesn't blend with the charcoal hull somehow,
Red maybe? P'raps White…?

The Bugs are very nice: decent use of drybrush.

The Birdmen are the Best IMO: you rarely see an "organic" orange; looks like you couls 'peel' the skin right off (in context, thats a compliment BTW)
.
Nice.

I'm with White Elks here…the human ship just doesn't do anything for me. The other two are great.

Nice work. They'll look great on a star mat.

BTW-> What kind/color of paint did you use on the Birds?
I've been looking for a way to do my Vorlon fleet justice…

I like the 'orange-peel' look more than the Lime you usually see on Vorlons

Well I guess everyone sees things a little differently! ;-) First off, they are all very well done!! My personal preference is for the bug ship (outstanding!) and the human one. The orange of the birdmen ship doesn't quite "grab me" as much.

I like the grey and blue for the Terran ship.

The Entomalians in green is perhaps cliche, but a very well done paint job.

The orange isn't quite doing it for me, but may well look better in person.

Overall very nice, and great to see someone painting these ships again.

The orange ship is my favorite. Different strokes, I guess.

Hundvig Fezian14 Dec 2006 9:43 a.m. PST

They all look okay to me, especially the color fading effect on the Avarian.

Dave Crowell14 Dec 2006 5:47 p.m. PST

Different strokes indeed. While I may not be thrilled with the colour scheme, I have nothing but envy for the quality of the painting. If I could get my ships to look half as nice…
