Agis Star Trek Attack Wing repaints + Kirk!

[AAN]

1st post here! My interest in Star Trek was recently re-ignited; Beyond was OK, a new TV Series is announced and Modiphius Entertainment announced the development of Star Trek Adventures!

Time to dig out ST Attack Wing and give the ships the same repaints as my X-Wing minis.

Romulan Warbird out of the basic starter box and the Scout expansion ship.


Klingon Raptor - one of my favorite ENT era ships!


Federation USS Enterprise E - model is a bit sloppy and difficult to repaint, the ship design is IMO the most beautiful Enterprise, closely followed by the NX-01.

AND - Modiphius Entertainment announced the development of Star Trek Adventures!

I managed to get the promotional Kirk and Picard miniatures, took my minutes to clean them up and prime them - since both are one piece casts, including the textured base! After that Kirk was painted.

Both miniatures are of incredible good quality. They follow the current trend in miniatures for more realistic proportions, live AvP or Warzone. The comparison picture below clearly shows it:

From left to right: Imperial Assault Han, Modiphius Kirk, Decipher Worf, GW Space Marine. The Marine looks almost comical with his over enhanced proportions!

I absolutely enjoyed painting Kirk. To enhance the clean look of Trek I did not highlight the mini to much, I went for a more muted and -hopefully- realistic look, that is also the reason why the eyes are just painted dark.

Highly recommended I can only hope for a lot of releases from this range!

Welcome aboard AAN, I look forward towards seeing more of your work.

Superb paint job, and the figure really look very realistic (good pose too).

Fantastic work on those repaints. Love that Grey Knight too, BTW.

Big thanks folks, sorry for not replying, I forgot to activate the "Notify me when a reply is posted"… 

… the muted green-grey on the warbird is excellent - is that off the shelf, or did you mix it yourself?

Very simple approach, I gave the mini a wash with GW Drakenhof Nightshade, after that GW Base Waagh with more and more with mixed in.

do you play Fleet Captains or ST:Tactics as well? do you have any custom models? I'm looking forward to seeing your customizing projects

No to both.

what is your favorite faction to play?

I do not know yet, so far I have not played a game… I want to paint two full sets and then start.

do you have the picard painted too?

Yes, see the posting below and my site.

the Modiphius models are slightly smaller than 32mm 'heroic', … its a shame they aren't 1-2mm larger, yet its worth it for the detail alone!

Fortunately Modiphius already announced that the production models will be a bit bigger.

were you ever much into Perry Rhodan and the deutsch-kateers?

I am a PR fan since 1970, got many novel from an uncle , I stopped reading in the 90s, recently I started again via some audio books. You can see some PR mini from me here: https://www.adpublishing.de/html/retro_sf.html


But what are deutsch-kateers?

OK, as promised Jean Luc gets his colours:

Another great sculpt, I am absolutely looking forward to these minis and the RPG!


Federation USS Prometheus - model is again a bit sloppy and difficult to repaint, the Prometheus design is always in good memory since the Voyager 414 “Message in a Bottle” episode!


Federation Constitution class cruiser “NCC 1701 - Enterprise” - ADB (former Mongoose) Starline 2500 model.


The model is reasonable good but the cast is not as good some other models of the line, I presume since everybody interested in the miniature line wants an Enterprise, the mold is very well used. Consequently the model was a challenge to build. Warped disk, flash, rough surfaces etc.

But all in all I like the ship! And the smaller ships from the line are in much better shape.


Federation Ortega class War Destroyer “NCC 701 - Mandela” - ADB (former Mongoose) Starline 2500 model.


Klingon Vor’Cha class ship, right out of the STAW starter box.


Klingon D7 cruiser - ADB (former Mongoose) Starline 2500 model. The ActA SF line of minis is now owned by ADB. The model is reasonable good. Not a scale model but a tough all metal wargaming piece. I am planning a small 1500 pts Klingon fleet that will also use some Raptors from the 21st C ENT era, so I added the additional support rods for each warp nacelle. I will do similar hyperdetailing for the whole fleet to give them a unique and hopefully cool “before TOS” look.

The D7 was the standard cruiser of the Klingon Deep Space Fleet. It was designed as a tough warship with a good turn mode and lots of Marines and transporters for boarding actions and hit-and-run raids. In many ways it is THE iconic Klingon ship.

It is also one of the most often showed ship models in Star Trek with a lot of continuity problems (see: The Everlasting Klingon Battlecruiser -> https://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/artic ... ruiser.htm).


F5 Frigate - ADB (former Mongoose) Starline 2500 model


The 22nd century Romulan Droneship and Warbird. From Enterprise 4 Episodes 12-14.
