Welcome to my Vehicle thread! I still have lots of vehicles over in my main custom thread, but I thought I would start a new vehicle thread here which will contain all my new vehicles. I'll slowly move over the others.

The Errant Venture was an Imperial II-class Star Destroyer captured by the smuggler Booster Terrik. It is only privately-owned Imperial-class Star Destroyer in the known Galaxy, distinguished by its unusual red coloring.

not a huge photochop, but I was making breakfast for the kids at the same time...

"The Story"
The Errant Venture is spotted by a probe droid above the planet Corinn IV in the Ella System. For months the ship has not been seen and the New Republic is worried that Booster or the EV may have fallen to the enemy.  Wedge, an old friend of Booster as well as Corran Horn assemble Rouge Squadron in order to investigate.

Yes, I had an extra in a parts bin and just got the itch to paint it the other night. Total time was about 60 minutes. The longest part was waiting for the red base coat to dry. =)

Thanks!

Here is an update of the CEC Old Republic Cruiser. I have the base coat down and am now going to paint the spine. Then need to determine best highlight color to add to some of the panels.



Thanks!

Looking forward to seeing it done

The Errant Venture to me was a ship similar to the Falcon, where it had a personality of it's own in the novels. Booster Terrik was another cool char and the ship just fit him well.

I have not gotten into this line of Star Wars at all but you have me intrigued as to what can be done with them,

I like the start of that cruiser, Sten. I was thinking some field grey panels might look cool. It's kind of a greenish grey.

Hey, Sten - what is that cruiser?  Action Fleet, Titanium, Snap-Tite, or...?  I've got a tiny li'l Snap-Tite kit out in the shop that I keep thinking about building, but I don;t like the stock colors.  But I can't quite justify one being owned by a bounty hunter...

Hey, Sten - what is that cruiser?  Action Fleet, Titanium, Snap-Tite, or...?  I've got a tiny li'l Snap-Tite kit out in the shop that I keep thinking about building, but I don;t like the stock colors.  But I can't quite justify one being owned by a bounty hunter...

It's Action Fleet (about 6-8 inches in length). I picked up about a half dozen of them (2 B-wings, Snow Speeder, Cruiser, and a Y-wing) at a church sale last year for $2 (the entire bag). I was thinking of painting it to match my 209th Heavy  Armor Mechanized Combat Team. Kind of like their own private dropship.

Going to paint the engine area today at lunch.

Painted the engine housing areas the other day at lunch I'm going to work on the sensor cluster next, and plan out where my panel highlights will go. Then just have to re-touch, a few dry brush coats, re-touch and then do a nice wash!
