BFG: Star Wars - Progress

 My toy Star Destroyers arrived yesterday, so I have almost all of my intended 1750pt BFG Star Wars fleet ready to go. In order to keep the project in 'under budget' - I've combined flying stands with commonly available discs in various sizes. I think the larger, wooden, bases, need another coat, but otherwise it seems to work well. I used 55mm (slightly under-sized) wooden discs and 1, 1/4" penny penny washers to get the right sizes for BFG. 

Venator, Star Destroyers, Republic Dreadnought.

This was really all designed around getting the two Star-Destroyers into the list. I decided to give these a little 'wash' and some random shading to break up the plastic grey. Star Destroyers are meant to look boring, so will likely leave these as I have them. Having trawled the lists, the Imperials are looking like: 

Star Destroyer (Emperor Battleship)

Star Destroyer (Emperor Battleship)

Venator Star-Cruiser (Exorcist Grand Cruiser)

Venator Star-Cruiser (Exorcist Grand Cruiser) 

Old-Republic Dreadnought (Reserve Murder Cruiser)

Interdictor (Dauntless Light Cruiser)

Enforcer (Dauntless Light Cruiser)

Nebulon B x 4 (Cobra Class Destroyer)

Star Destroyers

Venator

This allows a good mix of the different Imperial Ship types. That Old Republic Dread (likely from a local system-fleet) might defect to the Rebels during the game!

I quite like my Venators. I have another to finish painting and think they are quite cool ships. I don't really add much in terms of painting, but Josh instantly recognises what they are, so mission accomplished! I decided to make these Grand-Cruisers in the end because they are almost as long as a Star-Destroyer and are pretty chunky. The Old Republic just was not quite up to building on an Imperial scale yet. Hopefully the rest arrive soon - I am itching to crush those Rebel Scum!
