When FFG unveiled the Imperial Raider everyone’s minds were blown.  Here at last was the Imperial HUGE ship that would face down the CR90 and open up Epic play once and for all.  But we still wanted mroe and the community have pined away for months hoping for more glimpses of this model:

What everyone was waiting for was some glimpses of the back and underside of the model, which was unseen in the previous FFG images (see above).  Here are a small sample of images from this large gallery which reveal just that.

I have to say this one is a real beauty.  The single large rear engine gives the ship a “dragster” vibe, and the feel of something that would be speedy for a capitol ship.  The underside and side edge detailing is just X-, I think the best work FFG has put out to date.  Whatever technique the factory that makes these models is using for the surface wash – they are getting better with each release.
