The Concise/Collected Repaints Thread. Keep Them All Here, Keep Em Visible.

By Gadge, in X-Wing

Hi Guys

Seeing as we've lost the painting sub forum, the best way of keeping all the cool repaints together for reference is in one thread. Otherwise you just lose them in a day.

It worked before so lets go back to it.

If you are a repainter please 'like' this and add on to it with your repaints, make it popular and show as 'busy' on the boards.

Lets keep this nice and positive like the old sub forum did.

Can I also suggest we limit this to FFG models and scratch builds to avoid any potential IP infringements.(it may be a good idea in that spirit to be careful about say an 'iron man' scheme xwing if FFG don't want 'mixing' or 'comingling' of IP)

I'm away on holiday for a bit so won't have much net access but i'll kick start this off in a minute.

cheers

Gold Squadron Y wings.

I felt the factory paint makes them look a little 'flat' so added contrast

Scum and Villainy Z95 Special Characters.

These actually need a 'grime' black wash but i quite like them clean.

I've made all repaints a separate post to ease quoting/commenting

Minor repaints on A wings

essentially done to stop them all having the *same* replacement panels which looked really wierd.

Hey not sure if this is the right thread to ask in, but in the sub forum a guy had super cool dioramas with little R2 units he made out of wire. Does anyone have pictures or a link to that?

Here are my Transformers Decepticon inspired paintjobs on my Scum and Villany fleet

I'm feeling alone without the repaint subforum :( ... so I want to contribute, but I don't have new creations to show that comply with those requirements :unsure: .

Bump, I didn't want this to get buried.

I'm not a painter :unsure: :unsure:

YwingAce - you could be a painter. :)

A few months ago, I wasn't a painter either. It's great fun and there are plenty of people here who will share tips to help you succeed.

Finished one last night:

Special thanks to Macross for the tutorial suggesting how to get the flames and teeth right. It gave me the nudge I needed to attempt this paint job.

First repaint... Be gentle

Played Scum exclusively for a long time and just made the jump to Rebels as well. Been thinking about what kind of paint job I could give my ships to unify them all. I figured the Hutt Cartel would have access to anything the Rebels would fly along with their own ships.

I know this probably still needs a wash so that it's not so bland but the testing I did looked a little too grungy for me. Does anyone thin their washes down to make it look less grimy and more just like shadowing?
