Kurtt's Painting and WIP Thread

By kurttkrueger, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

Thought I'd start my own painting and WIP thread to keep track of my Imperial Assault miniatures. Started painting these in earnest the other day, and will continue to do so over the next few months, amongst other projects.

To begin with, a WIP of Diala Passil:

Looks fantastic. I'm not sure if the strong blue background helps the photo however. I'd like to see it with a plain white background if possible.

There you go. Finished her off this afternoon:

Love it.

Darth Vader finished. Sorry about the messy background, was the best place for light!

Made a start on Fenn Signis. Base coat and wash down, onto highlights next:

Like the way you have done the lightsabers, especially on Darth Vader, very much like the movies. How did you achieve this?

I followed Sorastro's painting guide for the lightsaber. You can check out a video detailing how in the thread pinned to the top of the forum.

Basically, it's a red basecoat, with progress amounts of silver mixed in for the highlight.

Fenn Signis finished!

How on Earth did you paint a Rebel logo that small?!

How on Earth did you paint a Rebel logo that small?!

It's actually pretty simple, but requires a steady hand and a brush with a decent tip.

I simply painted a circle of black on the raised patch of his shoulder, then used white to paint a crescent moon shape, then a stripe down the middle.

Then go over it with red paint.

Gideon Argus done!
