I own about all of these miniatures and for the most part, I am very
happy
with them.  I just wish all the ships had complete bottom side detail. 
The
majority of the large ships do not have bottom side details.  I think
this
was due to the the fact that the rules show all ships played without
stands.
So they basically rest on their bellies.  Oh, I do have the rules, but
was
not impressed, other than for giving stats to convert to FT! :)

AFAIK these minis are only available directly from Pewtercraft.  I think
the
company in one guy who makes them in his basement when not working at
his
full-time job.	The last time I bought some of these minis, the local
store
had to buy them direct from Pewtercraft since all the previous
distributers
no longer carried them.  I'm not sure if this was done by Pewtercraft.
Anyways, I am happy with the ships, while they were a bit pricey.
