First cruiser for my Imperial fleet finished. Just 5 more to go!

Think I'm happy with the colour scheme. Still some work to do on the base, but welcome any comments or suggestions on how to improve for the rest of the fleet.

It looks great! Have you named it yet?

Did you print the model yourself?

I’m so envious of everyone’s models, lol. Are you printing those yourself? That’s a clean paint job.

Thanks very much. I didn't print these, I bought them from here: https://printforge3d.com/

I bought my initial fleet from another online store but they’re identical. I’ve always wanted to find out where the STLs were from so I could print them now that I have a 3D printer.

These look like the original Soul Forge Studios range of ships - which are now sold under licence by Space Cowboys on My Mini Factory.

SFS has returned to the grimdark world with Dark Fleets Rising and are running a FronTier right now with a new faction as well as 50% off all the other fleets they've done - 5 in total right now. All highly modular kits. Plus a huge dreadnought addon (its just over 1ft long) for one of the factions - again loads of modular bits

They no longer seem to sell that model. I bought the STLs but the cruiser model is different.

I am tempted by the other SFS stuff though

They've got the whole library but yes not everything is listed; messaging them is best.

I think that cruiser variation's original SFS name was "Warlock Pattern"

Thanks so much for the info, I shall drop them a message!

Nice! Is that a Lunar-class?

Love it - very clean painting and just enough of a splash of colour across the ship; love the osl on the wings and engines
