Post by: Ruckdog on March 17, 2015, 08:21:07 pm: Awesome looking fleet! I love the color choices. Red is a difficult color to work with, you did incredible work with it 8).
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet
Post by: Delta on March 17, 2015, 08:55:11 pm: Wow. These look so good! I really like the style of painting. It fits the scale really well. Expertly executed.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet
Post by: Landlubber on March 17, 2015, 10:02:46 pm: Very nice, very nice indeed. I've seen these ships in person all too often, and they really are a well-painted fleet.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet
Post by: Quickdraw on March 18, 2015, 01:01:56 pm: Thank you guys.
I struggle with completing models at times so I appreciate the kind words.
I'm really happy with the color, I was definitely looking to find something unique. That and my Dystopain Wars stuff has ended up being Gray so I wanted to stay away from that.

Post by: markymark1970 on March 19, 2015, 07:53:20 pm: Far from the normal grays and blues that seem to be the typical Terran colors. They look even better in person. Kudos to all of you who go out on a limb with your color schemes, very nice to look at and inspirational.

Man, who on earth would ever use that scheme on their Terran ships?!?! ;D

Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet
Post by: Quickdraw on March 23, 2015, 12:07:30 am: Thanks a lot. I still have a Dreadnaught that's primed. And I just received in the mail a patrol fleet and a pair of shield cruisers!
I plan on ordering another set of heavy cruiser drop on parts so I can magnetize another set and run two heavy cruiser squadrons if I ever wanted to.

Post by: ALice-13 on March 26, 2015, 12:03:08 am: Love it, great colors and clean lines.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet
Post by: Quickdraw on September 26, 2015, 12:53:25 pm: Finally working on some Terrans again.
Finished my Apollo battleship to a suitable standard. I am also working on some shield cruisers and my dreadnaught.

Post by: markymark1970 on September 28, 2015, 01:51:11 pm: Dang... I feel shamed. All of the great paint jobs on here. Good work, need to see them on a table.

Post by: Ruckdog on October 03, 2015, 09:58:49 pm: Came out looking great! Having just painted one of these beasts myself, there is A LOT of detail to this model, and your scheme does it justice.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Quickdraw on October 03, 2015, 10:28:58 pm: Now that everything is finished its definitely time for a family photo.
I give you the 117th Storm Fleet tasked with offensive action against RSN defended space.

Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Ruckdog on October 03, 2015, 11:04:18 pm: Great job! I think it's hilarious that we ended up posting our completed fleet pics on the some day ;D.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Landlubber on October 04, 2015, 09:32:09 pm: (sigh) Why so much hate against the RSN?

I like the names--very appropriate names for your shield cruisers. Great looking fleet.

What does NTSC stand for?
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Quickdraw on October 04, 2015, 10:06:34 pm: Ruckdog: it is pretty funny we completed everything at nearly the same time.

Landlubber: most of my regular opponents are Kurak players, you're one of the only Zenian players I face regularly.
NTSC=Navy of the Terran Satellite Charter. That's what they use in the Kurak Alliance book. Honestly the ships would probably be something like SCS OR TSCS (Satellite Charter Ship or Terran Satellite Charter Ship)

Post by: Stephan on October 05, 2015, 12:50:51 pm: It's like dueling Terrans around here. Both fleets look amazing.

Post by: Last Rites on November 12, 2015, 04:03:17 pm: Seriously mate, these are incredible. Excellent work on all of them.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Quickdraw on November 13, 2015, 12:27:12 pm: I appreciate it.
It feels great to have completed a fleet.

Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Ruckdog on August 10, 2016, 05:31:27 pm: Looking good! The black & yellow caution stripes on the satellites came out very nice.
Title: Re: Quickdraw's Terran Fleet (Updated with ship names!)
Post by: Quickdraw on August 10, 2016, 06:45:49 pm: Thanks Ruckdog! I'm really happy with it, it seems appropriate for stations where doors will be closing and opening regularly. I'll have to revisit the nuke tubes on my destroyers as those caution stripes are atrocious in comparison.

I have another handful of Terran ships to finish and then I'll be done for now.
