Hi ya All Seeing as Microfig models are on the board I thought it would be a good time to post some pics of a Microfig MOC I did a few months back. Nowhere near as detailed as Paul's "Empyrean Flame" and her Sister ship "Lance of Athena". But anyway (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-03, to lugnet.space)

Excellent work, Paul! Great form and styling on both ships. I'm glad you made these ships in microfig scale. Obviously, it gave you much more freedom of design and it looks like you did have a lot of fun. I think you pulled it off very well at this (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
