If you are unsure about painting them, I would suggest giving one a grey base coat and an ink wash and see if that is sufficient.

I don't have any experience painting Fine Detail Plastic myself, but I do note that the shapeways support suggests soaking it in hot water and washing up liquid before starting, and a quick search suggests using acrylic paints, not enamel (which would be my preference anyway).

Just arrived today from Foreven Shipyard Traveller Starship Miniatures (via Shapeways) are these delights:


I'm saving up for the rest and believe a lab ship might be on the design blocks.

Just trying to decide whether I dare trying to learn to paint them (with DEX 3), but fear I'll just make a mess.

Great to see the March Harrier (and often forgotten launch).  

Now.... it would be a pity to have these and not run a combat.... mwah hah hah!
