Fanboy, these images are OUTSTANDING!

Completely Brilliant!


Would you mind if I 'borrowed' them for a Space Force base of my own?

They are SO good, I could just substitute them on my Star Wars Blockade Runner Playset fairly easily and have a brilliant Space Force Base of my own....

Help yourself. There are others so you may want to wait before you start building.
I'm pleased you like them but all I did was mess about on PS with the images from the site that Humby mentioned.
I could even give you the plans I'm using if you want - I'm having a few scanner issues at the moment so I don't know when I can post them. I'm using wood as it's to be wall mounted but you could just as easily use foam board if you'd prefer.

Excellent, cheers F-B!

Just when I think I'll take a little break from the customs for a bit, another great idea presents itself.

Many thanks!

Wowee, I'd forgoten about your playset Paul, and Fanboy, those look awesome. I have too much shelf space at home and I think I know a way of sorting the Space Force area ;-) Great work.

They are great! Can't wait to see this finished. Mine was going to be wall mounted at one stage (like the one in the display catalogue) but I lack the engineering skills to give it the necessary structural integrity - would have collapsed within a day.

I did some sticker sheets for mine for panels and outside logos and if you want to use any they are here on my flickr frontpage:

Now I'm employed again, I have more time on my hands for such things ;-)

Can anyone tell me the font used to make the AF signs ( I want to label the various rooms on the station!)
Cheers

That'd be stencil or something close to it.

This is the complete back wall -it's on 2 levels and the top will be divided into 3 sections.Right is the Armoury, the centre is the control room and the left is a prison cell. There are are also stickers for each of the dividing walls, front and back.
A ladder will run up the central area (between the blue columns). The whitle rectangles will have diagonal support rods (dowel) to hold the middle level.

Have been planning something similar myself following Monkfish's post in December / January. So, look forward to seeing the finished article. Mine isn't yet in production and may be some time before it is.
