Hi I'm probably going to be playing with the ship designs from Star Rangers
Reinforcements page (BTW it is a wonderful sight, but I assume he knows this).
The ones for ESU, and I wondered if anyone has any good idea as to were I can
find any mini's that could fit the rest of my ESU fleet. And hopefully be more
or less to scale so they don't stick out that much. I need for all the
designs, both the large ones and the small ones.

Though it doesn't hurt to feed my delusions of grandeur whenever you can
;)

Hmmm. An option is to use Brigade's SemFed minis if no one in your area has
them. Same scale and the designs are similar enough that with the same type of
paint scheme, you could make them look like old ESU designs.
Another option is Starfleet Wars mins with the Carnivorans being the closest
match I think. A decent selection of larger ships but not many minis for
escorts or light cruisers.
We could also bug St Jon to make minis of the other ships mentioned in the
FB ;)

If you notice from the piccies and the figs out already for ESU (ok, for ALL
the GZG ships), there's a lot of modularity recycle of bits). Keeps the figs
looking from the same fleet, and allows you to do a little bashing and
extending for yourself.
I know that Geo-Hex puts out a blister 'Wings and Things' with bits for
modifying ships as you wish; not sure if GZG has the same thing. I've
misplaced the Kilrathi (sp?) site, much blushing on my part since I just said
if you mention a site, you should give the URL, but some of the kitty ships
are bashed from ESU and other items. Loverly.
Of course, if you DO do your own converting, we'll want to see piccies on
the web. ;->=
