RIP Rocky Sr

I just heard that my dog-in-law, Rocky Sr has passed away.  He was 17 years old.


Here he is (top), with Rocky Jr (bottom).

Lots more Spaceships!

I painted these spaceships from Zandris IV in two batches:




The Embassy Class Assault Carrier in the top picture (right) took me a while to finish, and the Diplomat Class Heavy Cruiser next to it took a bit longer too.  The rest of the ships are ones I have painted before, but I still had to use the old ones as a colour reference.

I also finally chose some fighters and bombers for my fleet:




They are all from Studio Bergstrom, from their "Star Warp Gate Universe" - I'm guessing that these are based on the Stargate series, but I've never watched it and I thought they looked cool.  I'll be using the ones on the left as multi-role fighters, the ones next to them are fighters/interceptors, and the other two on the right are bombers.  The stands are: top part is from Ground Zero Games, and the base is from Litko.

These were fun to paint, and I'm finishing up the biggest ship of them all right now.  :-)

Sorry for the Lack of Updates!

Sorry for the lack of updates!  I've been busy with running the kickstarter, which was funded yesterday!  Woo!  I'm very excited.  :-)

I've decided to use Backerkit for the survey as it is way better than the clunky kickstarter one.  So I managed to get most of it done today.

I have managed to paint a little, all of them more Zandris IV spaceships.  I'll try to get pictures up in the next couple of days.

Also, we had our little puppy neutered and his chip implanted a few days ago, so I've been taking care of him a little more than usual.
