With the addition of the latest ships I can now present a reinforced light Pathfinder group composed of Santiagos and a Vancouver.
So here we dont have anything new, just some pictures of previously painted ships as I like to get pictures with more ships in them.
Newly commissioned Vancouver class Escort Carrier ready to lend its hand to the UCM.
The Vancouver class emerged from the UCMF Naval Design Bureau in the late 2640s in response to the obvious need for more cost effective fighter and bomber support than the well armed Seattle class offered.
The Vancouver class Escort Carrier is a smaller carrier that lacks the launch capacity or the firepower of the mutch larger Seattle but I think it has a role to play.
I painted it dark grey, with red markings and a large transfers from and old undead set. The skull really ads its unique character to the ship.
I painted the flight deck brown to make it stand out but also to look a little like a ww2 wooden flight deck. Totally wrong to have a wooden deck on a space ship but I blame the aesthetics, rule of cool. The shipyard or the officers in charge maybe painted it brown to look like a older naval ship as a sort of homage to when the carriers started its history.
And because I really like these pictures.. The engine exhaust and the lights are painted with flourecent paint to make them really stand out under UV light.
