I used the night brood ships from Silent death (ICE) These were made by
Grenadier in the UK I think. Even though they are fighters they are
scaleless
as they have no discernable features like a cockpit. They are now out of
production but might be found in your local gaming store which might
hold old
stock.
There is a new release called Silent Death Next Millenium which contains
a
whole bunch of new ships, they haven't made it over here UK yet so are
unlikely to be in OZ yet, again this is a gaming store game so it should
be
widely available.
The GW Tyranid ships are also pretty good, but again out of production &
expensive. They have a good distribution system so pick up a copy of
white
dwraf and see about ordering from GW. I saw a post a while back that
they
might still have some space fleet stuff left, but its about 5 quid ($10
aus) a
ship!
I did see once that someone made Sa'Vasku ships from dead/dessicated
insects
- flys and beetles - sounds gruesome but probably gives the best
bio-ship look
possible. I suppose you could take moulds in silicon & cast them in
resin?
Given OZ has some of the most way out insect fauna in the world why not
try
that?
