Did someone mention scale? :D The decks are 2.5 meters high IIRC.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well.

Freespace deck heights are 2.5 meters, eh? Does that include the structal beams, spacing for cables, pipes etc?

OR,

Is that the height from the deck (on which you stand) to the 'Ceiling', or the height to the next deck above you (which your friend/lover/worst enemy is standing)?

'trying to work out how many decks there would be in his destroyer, the GTD Saturn, so he can do the textures properly'

Petrarch, good luck buddy. I would really like to see it, when your done. :nod::yes:

Yah, all the Epic stuff can be bought in 40K scale if you have the money... just can't remember the name of the company that does 'em... you can get the Thunderhawk from GW mailorder, it's £400

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

You can get the other titans and Baneblade-sized tanks though, I've seen the complete range somewhere...

Hmm, would it be possible for some model company to build kits of a few of the FS ships?


We can dream....

Eventually, perhaps... it was geared for a FS -> Serious Sam TC, which never really got off the ground due to army reserves interrupting me right at the get-go.

That one, IMHO - and it's not a canon measurement, it's just me eyeballing the corridor in the Silent Threat extra movie thing. ;)

EDIT: Actually, it's the space between the floor and the ceiling - add another 0.5-1 meters between decks for pipes and stuff. :)

at Forgeworld.
But a Warhound (the one available at forgeworld)is nothing like a Warlord ( the one shown above ) size-wise ;). The Warlord on 40K scale would be around 1m, 1m50 tall, I suppose. And I'm NOT gonna talk about the Imperator :p

I intend to build a Fenris out of wood,
I made an Orion in ceramics at school.  It was about a foot long, but i only had 3 days to do it in, rather than 10 like I was supposed to have.  It's not "anatomically correct" as I made it in such a hurry, a certain side sticks out that's not supposed to, and one side is completely flat, and has no turrets.  And i still haven't gotten in back either... it took to long to dry after being fired in the Kiln, gotta wait until school starts again.  

We should start a project... everyone choose and build an FS ship, and make sure we build them all to scale.
Rayquaza?¿
