Steve Blanes came into this art form full blast when he began utilizing digital artist Ansel Hsiao’s fantastic Star Destroyer designs and turning them into amazing physical models! Her is his newest venture… the ASSERTOR!!
Here is an update today on my Super Star Destroyer based on Ansel Hsiaos design. The progress is only at 30%. [...]

After months creating his first scratch build, highly detailed and based of off Ansel Hsiao’s design, this piece has finally come to life! Nicely done!
Here is what Steve has to say…
About 6 months ago I encountered Ansel Hsiao’s BELLATOR CLASS STAR BATTLECRUISER.
I was enthralled. I knew I had to build it, even though I had [...]

Based off the amazing Mega Star Destroyer design by Ansel Hsiao (SEEN HERE), newly shown artist Steve Blanes creates his first scratch build utilizing Ansel’s amazing design. This will be quite large at over 40 inches in length, and from the look of it… highly detailed. I am looking forward to viewing the finished [...]

Ansel Hsaio is back with a Lambda Class Shuttle build! Better known as the TYDIRIUM from Star Wars – Return of the Jedi, this piece is again an outstanding piece of work. I am always amazed at all the fine detail Ansel places on his builds. Simply beautiful!

We are all used to viewing Ansel’s HUGE Star Destroyer creations, and now we have another beauty to view…. the TIE Avenger Fighter. This is a BEAUTIFUL design from Ansel and I would love to see it done as a kit in 1:24, or even better at 1:18! The detail is crisp and looks very [...]

Using the outstanding CG design of Ansel Hsiao, professional artist Peter Noble did another fantastic piece showing this massive Star Destroyer in action!

When I think CG Star Destroyer… or just about anything else… one of the first names I think of is artist Ansel Hsiao! Every design he comes up with is superior to his last…. and I want to have them ALL physically built! Clearly something that may never be done completely with as fast as [...]

Professional artist Ansel Hsiao is absolutely fantastic and this new build shows it! CG builds are another monster completely than that of a physical scratch build. However, they both take great amounts of talent to pull off…. and this TIE Defender that Ansel built is absolutely beautiful! I will never tire of viewing this artist’s [...]

I absolutely LOVE this artist’s Star Destroyer designs! And this one is HUGE at 15 Kilometers long! The weaponry on the piece is insane as is the amount of theoretical thrust it must put out! Another jaw dropping design by professional artist Ansel Hsiao (aka Fractalsponge)!

Slowly regaining his senses… as consciousness takes hold, the Master Jedi begins to hear again the blasts and crackling of the fire about him. Now fully coming around from getting knocked out by the pillar that collapsed on him after a laser bolt hit it, he realizes he is in great pain. Both his [...]

Professional Artist Ansel Hsiao has to be one of the foremost experts on Star Destroyer design from all that he has produced through the years! This new piece is absolutely stunning…. as his usually are! As with all his amazing designs… this too is now added on a long list to have physically built for [...]

JULY 5 2009

This immense piece was designed by well known CG artist Ansel Hsiao (Fractalsponge)! As you can see, this Imperial Tanker shadows even the largest of Star Destroyers that Ansel has deigned!

Here is another great piece by Ansel Hsiao (Fractalsponge). The TIE Bomber!

Shadowing all other Star Destroyers, with the exception of Executor, this Bellator Class is massive and full of weaponry! Designed to crush anything that stands in the Emperor’s way, Ansel designed this piece for battle!
This is yet another of Ansel’s designs that I plan on having made into a large, physical model to show!

Replicating every menacing trait the Imperial Star Destroyer has, Ansel Hsiao again blew me away with his artsist skills!
Presenting the Imperial Star Destroyer!

This amazing CG model was designed to be menacing looking! Ansel’s AT-SE Walker (ALL-TERRAIN SHOCK ENFORCER)!!! This is yet another of Ansel’s creations that I hope to have built into a physical model for the Galleries Collection. A TRUE piece of imaginative art!

Completely built of his own custom design, Ansel Hsiao of Fractalsponge 3D Art masterfully created this Heavy Star Destroyer! One of the things I plan on doing with Ansel’s fantastic CG creations is to make them into large scale physical models for the Collection! His designs are second to none!

Darth Vader’s TIE Fighter… the X-1! Built for and designed by Darth Vader himself, this fighter was far superior to any Imperial fighter of it’s day. Ansel captured it’s menacing look perfectly in his CG build of it! Fantastic work indeed!

Another excellent CG Build by Ansel Hsiao! He is a true master of this art form!

A beautiful CG TIE Fighter build by Ansel!
