A rare precursor Battleship design with gothic fortress modifications. Historians often point to the Vanguard Battleship as the missing link in the transition from the millennia old Grand Battleships to the modern Mk.4 Battleship.
As advanced powerplants became harder to come by, orbital shipyards had to make the arduous choice between armaments or propulsion. The Vanguard Battleship prioritised the latter, and the most notable battleship of this class – ‘Vanguard to Glory’ – was often seen leading the charge into enemy lines.
Warning: if you purchase [Expansion Bay], please realize your ship may become unbalanced. You can remedy this by gluing weights to the rear underside.

This is a 3D printed product made of UV hardened resin. Models are cleaned and completely cured with UV light.
Before printing, a support structure needs to be added to the models, these are normally removed after printing, but leave “scars” on the model. These are production-related and do not represent a defect in the product.
Support structure might still remain on the model and can be removed with a sharp hobby knife.
Resin dust is a health hazard if inhaled into the lungs. Grinding and filing is not recommended. Otherwise, such work should only be carried out with appropriate protective equipment (fine dust mask) and/or wet sandpaper.
It’s possible that the models are hollow. In this case, the model has drainage holes through which the liquid resin could leak out. The inside of the model was then also cured. Drainage holes can be closed with modelling putty.
Resin heat-sensitive and can therefore deform during the printing process, during the removal of the support structures or during curing. Hot water or a heat gun/hair dryer can quickly remedy this. The affected part is heated and then carefully bent into the correct position.
Important notice
Warning! Not for children under the age of 3. Choking hazard due to small parts.
