My Gorn Fighters

Post by wedge_hammersteel »

I found some minis that I could use as fighters and I painted up a batch of Gorn first. I even created the stands out of aluminum rods and wooden circles. I wanted to be able to fit three in a hex.

I havent finished all of the painting detail on the fighters but I wanted to post pics of them. Battle Group Acadiana is going to playtest some fighters again tomorrow knight.

I am using a Gorn Dreadnaught as a Space Control Ship.

I tried to get close ups but it worked so so. I hope the pics are too big.

Cool. I like the green you're using for the Gorn too. It stands out on the table.

They look really nice Wedge. Where did you get them?

Smart way to handle them. Small enough to fit in one hex, but separate so that they can go off and not have to remain in a unit. I was considering doing the same thing for my Hydran Stingers.

Pretty cool!
I'm curious as to the source on these too.

Sorry, can't find my camera to take pics of my fighters.

I searched the net and found this company.

They had a nice turn around time from across the pond.

I also bought some of these.

I cut the fins off and they make good shuttles.

These are neat swac shuttles for SFB.
