ps - although Brigade can't claim the hat-trick of SFSFW awards that Jon
deservedly won, we did manage one of our own - 'Best Commercial Website'
:-). We ran GZG a reasonably close second in the 'Under 20mm SF
Manufacturer' category as well.

Certainly worthy of congratulations; 15mm and micro armor et al are combined?
Makes even second very sweet!

And, the list agrees that you have a well laid-out site, and only wish
more manufacturers had as complete a set of images for their wares... *ahem*
;->=

As for the 'An Outpost Too Far?' report, really well done; some of the other
titles and images made me wish they had done as well. Blood, Guts
'n'
Gore in Space whetted my appetite for more info.

Also, the vacc-heads are grateful for the sight of that spaceship. Woof!

Didn't think the "BFG Blanks" would go over well on a "GZG list", don'tcha
know. :-o Yeah...the Eagle is a bit "cartoonish", but hey, it works.
Besides, don't like it? Don't use it.

Are you kidding? I LOVE 'em. Cartoony? Try a well-painted Dictator from
the
Space Fleet days. ;->=

I'm likely to swap the prows with real GW ships, just to add to the confusion
and amusement.

However, you're correct; the freighters are MUCH more on topic. I knew those
would be the first thing most people would see, and only realized I hadn't
mentioned them after I'd already hit 'send'.

I see why you pulled the first transports; the new ones are a vast
improvement. I'm hoping the 'Example Pics Coming Soon' will include
unpainted/unassembled views. With mix-and-match parts, it's nice to see
the whole layout at one shot, similar to the Orbital Repair Dock foresection
you show on the first page. I admit, I'm greedy. ;->=
