First Impressions - Lares-Class Fast Grav Tank

Image
The final model from the latest delivery by Ravenstar Studios is the Lares-Class Fast Grav Tank (not to be confused with the Mercury-Class Fast Grav Tank from the same range which is stunningly similar). The model comes with a selection of four different cannons. Additionally, there is a small detailing bit that is to be glued to the rear of the hull. The quality of casting is on the same level as the two minis mentioned before. At the moment this concludes the review of Ravenstar models. There is another mini I would like to get my hands on .... a walker type tank. But this will be something to be ordered in the future.  Dimensions: length 90mm, width 50mm, height 30mm

First Impressions - Passer Grav APC

This chunky boy comes from the same batch as the Mage Grav Sled ... the Passer Grav APC by Ravenstar Studios. As can be seen it's a single cast made from resin with two additional bits for detailing the engine inlets. Again, it is a more rounded design following the pattern of the Grav Sled. Interestingly, the part underneath the hull is detailed as well. As with the Grav Sled the model needs some polishing in order to remove some leftovers from the production process. Dimensions: length 95mm, width 45mm, height 30mm

First Impressions - Mage Grav Sled

Next up the Mage Grav Sled by Ravenstar Studios. It may be used as either a manned (scout?) vehicle or as an unmanned drone. It's a multi piece model made from resin with a chassis and various turrets to be added as you wish. The overall appearance deviates from the more angular shapes of other vehicles which makes it quite  suitable for a non-human armies. In this it is similar to the Cimexian vehicles which I reviewed a couple of posts back.  The details are quite nice but it requires some touching up and cleaning due to (very minor) flash in the grooves and on the smaller bits.  Dimensions: length 58mm, width 40mm, height chassis 15mm, height with turret varies
