paints and individually bases some 6mm sci-fi infantry.
Our store's back up and offering a new model, the Cormorant Medium Lander.
This craft is used to insert several squads of infantry directly into the battle zone – even directly into combat – due to its heavy armor and powerful defensive armament.
Powered by direct thrust (including a suite of VTOL thrusters), the Cormorant can move troops from the fleet in orbit to the planetary surface, and can also retrieve them for return to the fleet.
An unarmed version, the Heron Yacht, is also used as a intrafleet transport by the navy, and is widely used in non-military government service, as well as by private owners. (Parts are included to make the Heron as well as the Cormorant.)
The Cormorant/Heron has a transport pod attached to its underside, and this is a nice little model all on its own, as seen here. Although the pod is not meant to be left on the surface by the lander, it can be jettisoned if the lander is damaged or destroyed, and you should be able to easily use it separately if you wish.
I think Charles Oines has done a great job on this design, and dwartist has done his usual brilliant paint-up (his model has some panel lines painted on the front, but the model is provided as shown in these images).
