    • Fireball by Peter Morris

    Peter Morris has a constantly growing squadron of starfighters each of which is a superb piece of design. His delightfully compact latest tx100aFireball09 is my new favourite, not least because he’s designed it in the hard-to-use dark green. The ground crew is a lovely touch.

      Nice little fighter.

      Maybe I’m missing something, but where’s the ground crew? I got the impression the dkgreen guy on the ground is the pilot, but I don’t see any other ‘figs in the Flickr set.

      Actually ‘ground crew’ was just a turn of phrase for the landing setup because I couldn’t think of a better word. The picture Zach links to does make it true though.
