Since I'm on vacation for the weekend, here is my horrible Star Wars Hot Take. If it was up to me, I would name every Star Wars movie with a incredibly corny, pulp-novel, over the top title. So be glad it's not up to me.

We are close to the
#TheBookOfBobaFett
so, in honor of that, I've been trying to make as many Bounty Hunter ships as I could.
Which one is your favourite Bounty Hunter Ship?
Today, I'm celebrating 10 years of doing something I love. Thanks everybody for supporting me and always being positive.
And special thanks to anybody who shares pictures of their paintjobs. 10 years seeing them and every time they feel unbelievable.
Here is a little treat:
I was procrastinating and I made this shot to see how the bombardment cannon from the First Order Dreadnaught compares to the planet-destroyer axial superlaser from the Xyston Star Destroyer. You might find this interesting/frustrating

Because identifying ships from Exegol is a job that never ends, there was a ship I couldn't identify that you only see it's front in the main shot.
@battleofexegol
on Instagram showed a different angle of that ship and it is indeed a freighter that appeared in The Clone Wars.
Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance (Totally Games/LucasArts) was released 25 years ago today (or close to it).
I'm going to have a hard time accepting that the last Star Wars game designed by Lawrence Holland's team is a quarter of a century old.😅 It was the end of my youth.

It's also a sign of nice management skills for him to memorize all the unofficial names too. He could have sen't the exact same message to all of them but no, he went one by one with with the names they liked to be called. Palpatine is a nice boss.
A new Mon Calamari cruiser, the MC110 Heavy Cruiser. Based on one of the blurry ships in the Hosnian Prime fleet from The Force Awakens.
The ship is smaller than a MC Crusier, no hangar, with a wide array of front turrets and thrusters to spearhead quick strikes.
Finally, the Vesper New Republic Cruiser from Ahsoka is available for Armada. This was suprisingly difficult.
I followed
@LukeTogni
's measurements for the 1200m size.
I had never seen the the full version of Mike Pangrazio's matte painting for the Home One hangar, but it seems that it had a B-Wing there (with the wing up).
I guess this version was cropped before adding more detail.
Here it is, the Ghost as it appears in Ahsoka. As detailed an accurate as I could make it. It is made so you can attach the Phantom as in the original miniature.
The first time I saw The Last Jedi, the moment where we see the turbolasers arc like a cannonball, I smiled and thought to myself "This choice was made by someone who knows what Star Wars should be instead of by someone limiting themselves by what Star Wars had been." I loved it.
The E-Wing, first designed by Doug Chiang. It appeared throughout the Expanded Universe. This is the first appearance in canon besides a quick cameo on a Poe Dameron comic. There seems to be more than one in this scene.
Let's all remember that Hera was the first character to ever fly all the Alphabet Squadron fighters. Yes, she was shot down in 3 out of 5. But still awesome.
#AlphabetSquadron
Friendly reminder that you can have the Galactic Starcruiser Halcyon much, MUCH cheaper. Sure, you can't get inside, but you can hold in your hand and go "nyyyyaaaaawww"
The Eye of Sion for Star Wars Armada.
Unlike everything else for Armada I didn't keep the sliding scale, I made it to fit the size of a Star Destroyer miniature.
I've just noticed an obscure reference in The Rise of Skywalker. I wouldn't be surprised if
@pabl0hidalgo
was behind it.
The Cap-5 Captivator (a walker that grabs people with a giant arm) is the successor of the Cap-2 Captivator, the mini rig toy from 1982.
Here they are, 40 new ships for the MMch section mostly focusing on Old Republic and
#TheRiseofSkywalker
. Highlighted the Night Buzzard and the Bestoon Legacy, since they are newly done for this release.

Snoke's Mega Star Dreadnought "Supremacy" for Armada. 80 cm wide. It's so big that I had to slice it in half, and of course I chose the best point to do so.

New Mon Calamari Crusier. We saw this in the previous trailer, it seems to be based on this concept art for Return of the Jedi, which was the same inspiration for the MC30c frigate. This one is much bigger.
(The fact that the ship was designed to hold two people made me guess that this scene is a "friendly" scene between Kylo and Rey, and she is going to board the fighter as training or for some other reason)
The Home One. They have remade the model and done a more accurate version than the Star Tours version that became the basis for the MC95. The size might conclude the eternal debate (it won't).
The Elder's Small Ship Aircraft in Micro Machines scale as it apears in the
#StarWarsVisions
episode. Desinged by Kamome Shirahama, it's a shame that we don't get to see more of it.
Here you have the First Order Light Cruiser.
It technically appears in the Force Awakens attached to the Finalizer, but you might know it from the Poe Dameron comics.
I made a version merging both designs for Star Wars Armada.
