so, i started working for Spartan Games recently as a mould maker / resin caster / sculptor :D
part of the benefit of working for a miniatures firm is rummaging through miscast stuff and ive thrown up some interesting stuff for Inquisitor ;D
first up is from the Uncharted Seas Fantasy Ship Game... Thaniras Elf Assault Destroyer (http://spartangames.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=35_38&product_id=113).. RRP £6 for two

next up is from Firestorm Armada spaceship game ... Relthoza Cruiser (http://spartangames.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=43_56&product_id=150).. £9.19 for two ships.. but importantly four of these;

great axeheads methunks! the bigger ships have bigger ones but i thought they looked too big .. as it is, that's huge for a marine!
so yeah, just a few of the Funky Stuff (http://spartangames.co.uk/shop/index.php?route=product/category&path=58) i've found :)
I remember looking at Spartan Games before and thinking the Sorylian Collective would make great alien weapons - of pretty much any sort

Looks brilliant - I've often looked at the Spartan Games stuff at Maelstrom Games without coming up with a use for them. Now I know I can make an Eldar bard of some kind ;)

Congratulations on the job!
Also, damn fine work on converting that Navigator.
Interesting indeed. And lucky ol' you :)
I have been keeping half and eye on the Firestorm range lately for potentially useful stuff after I first saw the Sorylian models. In slightly less inquisitor-related discussion, I am really liking what they're doing with the new Dystopian Wars range, can't wait to see it develop more.
I was admiring the Dystopian Wars stuff at my local club the other night, and the FSA stuff is pretty cool, too, although I've not been sold on the US models.
Dragging the topic back to INQ, I did think that the metal turrets that are available for various ships could make useful parts for INQ.
