I actually got these a while ago, but I only got around to making up one wing last night. I thought that I would put them up here to see what people think (if I can get this to work!). They are my first wing of Chaos Swiftdeath Fighter models, and I hope to have five wings in total assembled very soon.

After the previous post, I thought that I would put up the pictures of the rest of my attack craft, even though they are not assembled or painted. So, back row, Chaos Fighter, Bomber and Assault Boat. Front row, Eldar Fighter and Bomber. Let me know what you think.

By the way...where did you get these craft. They look cool. Much better than the GW-ones.

I must admit that I was really pleased when I found these guys, and I think that they look great. They are from a UK company called Ground Zero Games. They are £1 for a pack of 6, plus 50p for the base. If you are interested then I will find a web page or get you an address to get a catalogue. I have bought other stuff from this company including: I have also got a very cool looking ship, which will be a Light Cruiser, but I have not assembled it yet. Pics when I have, promise! ;D

The ships look similar to those for SD3000 (or something) is that where they are from?
On a different note, I would have the triangle one as the bomber and the twin engined one as the fighter. Just because the triangle one reminds me of a stealth bomber, and the other of a Y-wing (which is kind of inbetween I suppose), but I think it looks a little more agile. Thats just my preference anyway.

The ships are from a company called Ground Zero, who produce a space game called Full Thrust. The are good quality and a lot cheaper than GW. I have out the Delta Wings as Fighters as I thought that the Y-Wings looked a bit slower and less agile. But that is just me.

I can do better than that. Their on-line catalogue is here: www.gtns.net/gzg/The space range is called Full Thrust (or FT), and if you contact them, tell them where you saw the link! ;D

I have recently re-discovered some of these ships and I am impressed. Is the overall scale similar to that of BFG. The catalogue would indicate that they are about BFG cruser sized.

They are actually a little smaller than Gothic. I have a few ships now. Generally, you can downgrade the class by one - so Battlecruisers become Cruiser, Cruisers become Light Cruisers, etc. If you are paying less than about £4 for a pack of two ships, they will probably be too small for Escorts.

Thanks, i might buy some of the ships then Is the company resonable, ie do they deliver fast and is the postage very expensive?

They are a fairly small but fair company. I usually get my orders within two weeks and I have not had any mstakes yet. The postage is not too bad. I dont have the details in front of me, but I think that it is simply 10% of the order.
Let them know where you found them! ;D

I am doing something similar. I am putting together a human fleet using various ships, including a few from Ground Zero. The fleet is an asteroid mining conglomoration, consisting of a number of small dockyards producing different designs and styles of ships.
