I built a very similar model a couple of months ago but it was subsequently destroyed. This is the replacement.
Armed escort shuttles are used to protect important passengers in dangerous areas. Some creative crew in war zones have also modified their front line shuttles into bombers.
Hidden deep in the Mystic Isles of Avalonia lies the home of Henjin Quilones and an order of Druids. Sharing the island is Henjin's wife, the elf Galaria, and her band of dragonriders, as well as the dragons themselves and a small army of support staff. The dragons live in the caves on the southern face of the island, and the humans live in buildings erected on the surface as well as in a labyrinthine complex of tunnels and caves that honeycomb the island.

My latest micro build for the Guilds of Historica over on Eurobricks. More pictures should be up eventually, once I find the time to take them. I had a bunch of others taken but my white balance was horrendously off.

I created a Microscale version of my already pretty small recreation of the Geisel Library at UCSD in San Diego, California. (The microscale model won an award at BrickCon 2014 in Seattle, WA.)

Trying to figure out what to replace the bat-fins with lead to the idea of using the Unikitty tail instead. This quick microscale was the result of trying to figure out how that piece could work in that context.
It is hard to make the sky when you have only 10 light blue bricks :)
Kids (6 and 9) made everything between water and sky.
English :
This small maneuverable bomber has been made famous for immobilizing civilian and trade ships. Its speciality is destroying the reactors without blowing up the whole ship. It is always used as a first step before the rest of the Blacktron team boards their target to steal everything valuable.

Français:
Ce petit vaisseau très manœuvrable s'est illustré en immobilisant les vaisseaux civils et commerciaux en faisant exploser leurs réacteurs sans risquer de les détruire entièrement. Il laisse ensuite le champ libre aux pirates Blacktron qui peuvent ainsi piller leur proie en toute sérénité.

I had a blast building these ships with my little bros. It was hard because we've never really had the experience of building at micro scale, but it was fun! I think however, that some of the ships are cooler in our head than they are in real life haha
I wanted some assymetrical fighters as escorts to the tanker, so I threw these together. Best part: innovative pirate-hook connection method!
I Looove my new "water" :D I'll be using it alot.
[If anybody has ANY critiques about my build or especially my photography and lighting, PLEASE let me know :) It would be most appreciated. I need to improve on both.]

In the beginning of space travel, the ranges of FTL travel were limited to the drives themselves. As time went on, drives became more advanced and ships began to rely more on fuel. Captains had to pack their cargo holds with fuel or find somewhere to stop and refill.
Out on the Galactic Rim (where a hold full of cargo is an explosive possibility) independently minded people have been quick to take advantage. Like the hermit crabs of old Earth, purveyors of these refuelling depots find a suitable rock, burrow inside, set up basic life support and open as a going concern.
Captains usually set themselves up in very densely populated asteroid belts and have the ability to shut down all beacons and power and become undetectable at a moment's notice. The threat of fuel pirates are an ever present one and depot captains often contract mercenaries for protection during times of local upheaval.

(just another microscale stuff for an upcoming diorama)
The Tiberius class starships (motto: "...to explode new worlds, to seek out and destroy new life...") demonstrate beyond all doubt that Blacktron will appropriate any proven spacecraft design and adapt it for their own nefarious purposes.
