BOSS' HUTT CARTEL & RIM WRAITH PROJECT

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

With the X-WING Wave Seven releases announcement I have decided that I am going to build a HUTT Cartel and get my RIM WRAITHS going too. To make sure that all of my ideas are crystal clear in my head I spent my free time last week painting this battle scene.

The majority of ships in this digital painting are actual photos of FFG X-Wing Models which I painted over and edited in good ole GIMP. The whole project took about thirty hours or so. I had a lot of fun making this.

EPIC!! :D

Fantastic painting. Not as fantastic as it would be with Dunelizards, but still totally great.

Mass confusion!! Panic would set in and I'd probably endup shooting a lot of friendlies. :wacko:

I like it though.

Thanks Sis!

Yup! When we get our Lizards I am going to do another painting with them in my HUTT Fleet.

As it can be in a STAR WARS battle.

"There's... to many of them!"

:lol:

EPIC!! :D

THANKS!

I love X-WING EPIC the most.

I got some more work done on the Concept Art for this project. These are the first two Huge Ships that I am going to build.

:D

The Patrol Corvette is going to be the big bad boy for my Hutt Cartel. This is a large-huge-ship.

The first Rim Wraith Huge Ship is going to be The Banshee Escourt, which is a small-huge-ship, like the Rebel Transport.

I did not desing this cool ship, it was done by another artist on Deviant Art. I love it, so I am going to build it.

The full article for this Project Overview containes a lot more info and imagery... check it out if you are in the mood for some Boss Craziness.

Say the Banshee escort... I keep thinking it's an upside down toy gun of some sort, though it certainly look quite ship like in that configuration.

I think you mean the Hutt Corvette, if so good eye. It is a crazy Super Soaker , and it is a very nice start for makeing this Huge EPIC Ship, IMO.

$12 bucks well spent indeed!

:)

My thoughts were a cross between a Nerf gun and a submarine, but I can't deny your concept looks fantastic!

Thanks Star Brother!

I got this one to test the guns quality. I can assure my fellow builders these are very nicely made toys. The plastic is strong and yet very light.

I ordered another type of gun already for an absolutly badass Mandalorian Frigate project to go with my Hiss Tank concepts... that thing is going to be sweet.

Nerf is nice!

:lol:

thats super funny and super cool.

Yeah, but MY guns already have a purpose.

Yeah they are fun... i might get a second one and use it as it is intended to be used. ZAP-Splat!

:D

I REALLY like that Banshee Escort. Can't wait to see you build it!

May's Collection Diary is all about getting the final purchases needed to setup for this project. I got some more X-Wing models and modeling bits and the important colors of paint too.

Now I can actually start building the Huge Ships and repainting the Small Ships for these Sub-Factions. Summer project extreme like...
:lol:

It took a lot of fun window shopping to find the perfect bits to make my projects pop. Why build completely from scratch... Hel-Nah! I am willing to spend a few bucks on badass missile launchers & cannons & engines, and such.

Plasticard is for making a base form... IMO.

I think of it as being smart... rather than lazy.

:lol:

This is the tedious stuff that takes time... cleanup and dry fitting so that everything goes together right.

:lol:

Kinda the least fun part, but it has to be done.

;)

I saw this today over at the X-Wing Mods FB Group.

:D

I am going to go with a darker brown... but this is inspiring!
