Type-29 Vampire Close-Support Fighter - 15mm Scale
Fan Art based on the Halo Franchise. Project to create a Covenant Vampire miniature to print at 15mm scale, to use for the now out of production game Halo: Ground Command. This model was created from scratch, using references from Halo Wars.
The Vampire was modeled based on a piece of concept art by Phil Wohr, though there were creative liberties taken to fill out all of the small details. Going off of the canonical scale for the vehicle, the finished ship measures 14.8cm in length at 1:100th scale. Once the ship itself was sculpted, the model was split into many pieces, and an internal support structure was designed for ease of assembly, and to minimize material use.
