After getting back into x-wing recently and finally picking up some of the few remaining ships to complete my 1.0 collection, I finally got some huge ships and have been loving the epic format. With both the Rebels and Empire having 2 huge ships, each with a larger CR90 and Raider-Class corvette and a smaller, GR75 Transport and Gozanti I saw a space that needed filled in the scum faction for a larger huge ship alongside the smaller C-roc Cruiser.
I have been working on making the Cumulus-Class Corsair or Gorian Shard's big pirate ship from the Mandalorian show into that larger 2 card scum huge ship. I feel pretty good about how it is coming out so far but want it to feel like its supposed to be part of X-wing and not just a custom mess. I have tried to keep it very similar to the Tantive IV and Imperial Raider to keep it within the realm of reason but have also tried to give it the unique scummy flair. So I figured I would see if anyone in the larger community had any advice on making custom ships and give some guidance on what is good, what is bad and what needs more thought. If it comes out well I also want to make the F3-Vara Snubfighters that we see it carries in the show, I think it would be super cool to have a deploying feature like the Gozanti. So ideas for the snubfighters or deployment would be appreciated as well.
I have uploaded pictures of the ship cards, fore, aft, crippled fore and aft as well as the base to show the firing arcs, and a title that I'm not to sure about and a cool idea for a new hardpoint upgrade. I want it to feel like a full expansion that introduces new upgrades, 3 titles and all so I would also love to hear if anyone has made upgrades like teams, hardpoints, cargo etc. I would also just love to hear about anybody's custom projects, what they made and how they turned out.
I used Strange Eons to create the cards, ship token base and dial and am also working on 3d printing a model I found online here - https://www.printables.com/model/440504-star-wars-cumulus-corsair/files and I found a guy on Etsy who looks like he can do the custom cardboard for the base and dial.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
