Athena

Here is the Athena from Starship Troopers. We catch a brief glimpse of this ship at the end of the movie. Not much is known about the capabilities of this ship as we never see it in combat. It is definitely larger that the Rodger Young class of ships. This model was from Minimodelmadness and was not detailed in front. The lines in the front were actually painted. A light coat of grey was given to tone down the contrast. Another view of the front:

  2. These models were from MiniModelMadness. He occasionally sells these models on Ebay. An alternative is to look at Studio Bergstrom. The models are smaller and made of metal rather than resin, however, they are the only other source of Athenas and Rodger Youngs that I am aware of.
