Rhino's updated Rebel paint thread (Pic Heavy!)

By Rhinoviru3, in X-Wing

Hi Forum,

So since taking up X-Wing again, I've started to somewhat recover elements of the painting skill I had in my youth. I'm still not all there, but I figure it's high time I share them with you!

You can read more about these ships over on my website (fluff coming soon for my ragtag fleet!) as well as see my WIP stuff (A second YT and a GR-75 at the moment!)

Without further stalling for time:

EDIT: Like I said, very WIP, but I thought I would share!

Very cool. How did you do it?

I love it! Particularly that the astromechs are different colours on the X-Wings.

I can't lie, if I paint I may steal that blue. It's just a favorite of mine! I love the use of what I assume are washes.

You have real talent. Tips would be greatly appreciated!

I'll work on writing up my processes/colours etc. at some point in detail. Essentially, I just thinly paint light grey over the whole ship, wash with black, add on the blue and other detail colours and do a quick bit of weathering :)

Thanks! I like the individuality that the Rebellion offers (likewise, I love the uniformity of the Empire!), so I mix it up where I can.

Thanks Skargoth! I'll definitely write something up. I'm no mini painter, X-Wing is helping me learn alot!
