blackhole is a shot of the captain, his crew, his (stolen) droids, his
treasure and the T3000 supercomputer he "appropriated" from the "grain
hauler" he looted a few years back.
blackskull1, blackskull2 and blackskull3 are pictures of blackskull castle,
the captains secret base of operations from where he conducts his piracy.
Note the very "castle-like" front section then the back section with the
high-power antennas and comms gear plus all the control panels and stuff
that hook up to the T3000.
blackstar1, blackstar2, blackstar3, blackstar4, blackstar5 and blackstar6
are photos of the captains ship, the blackstar. Its a custom built job using
whatever bits of looted/stolen space hardware the captain happend to have
lying around but its equivilant to a "galleon" class starship in terms
of the power, weapons etc.
blackstar1 shows the front section, the cockpit and the main control area
blackstar2 shows the front section including the forward weapons and stuff
blackstar3 shows the middle section with the captains escape pod (the design
of this area came about as a result of having a tr-dk-blue helicoptor
windscreen that I wanted to use, maknig a replica of a SPII prisoner cell
and using a design not unlike one of the SPII sets for the centre section.
blackstar4 and blackstar5 show the aft section including the hyperdrive and
aft laser cannon (D500 turbolasers appropriated from a ship in dry dock at
the altair shipyards)
blackstar6 shows the whole ship
blackstuff shows an overview of the whole scene
blackswamp shows the blackswamp amphibious spaceboat. Its a boat. Its a plane.
Its a submarine. Its a 4 wheel drive offroader ATV. And its a spaceship.
Note the yellow figurehead on the front.
blacktrain1 and blacktrain2 show the blackline 2000, the captains train.
Its a custom built job like the blackstar, built using parts aquired during
the great trains robbery of 2056.
blacktrain1 is a shot of the cab and the power supply (lifted from a top
secret D900 superfighter on its way to the military planet of orion)
blacktrain2 shows the outside of the train
The red brick in the front is a train light brick that I got 2nd hand in a
parts lot.
Most of the other parts (like the ice planet parts etc) in the photos also came
from various parts purchases.
