Drasnighta's Wet Work

By Drasnighta, in Star Wars: Armada Painting and Modification

Its still up and down, but at least I have some progress to show...

... still touching up the Ghost in bits and pieces, trying to get a nice highlight down without destroying the visual grubbiness...

Why the albino Raider?

I am anxious to see how that raider will come out

All of my Imperials are in transition to being more White-based...

The Raider was more an experiment in having an "Armoured Up" Raider, making the panels more Ablative spaced armour than Solar panels.

Well, it wasn't mine :)

Also, I'm so far out of the loop on these American sports that I had to even look up how to do it proper justice!

Ohey there.

Quick interruption to a routine Commission for a Howlrunner and Escort Squadron!

(About 50% done so far... Awaiting Washing then Retouch and Details!)

You may of answered this before, but what is the pipe you use for painting those ties? Because that looks terribly useful for painting those tiny fighters. And I have huge sausage fingers Wich make that maddeningly difficult

Just various pieces of PVC pipe from my modelling days, with hand-drilled holes.

Different dimensions for different projects. The smaller one like above suits TIE Fighters and TIE Defenders, whose wings hang around.

But I have larger ones for Rebel squadrons (which due to their increased diameter are easier to hold) and irregular squadrons.

Cool, thanks dude

Thanks to my GoFundMe, I’ve been able to get some hobby supplies... that included white spray.

The whole collection is going that way.

1x ISD

2x VSD

2x Interdictor

1x Quasar

1x Gladiator

1x Raider

1x GozFlot

bug I’ve literally got an hour s day to work on it, so it’s slow going to even line them before detail work.

And... since I only buried it in article predictions...

https://www.gofundme.com/xgyzb-phoenix-support

the help I’ve gotten so far has restarted ship tray production and let me start painting again in the short term.

i am surviving, so it’s very much a “don’t feel obligated”, but it’s still step by step right now.

but help is, and has been, helpful.

Is anyone else unable to see any of the images? Most are just showing up as numbers and stuff

Earlier pictures have been lost to photobucket.

newer pics are Facebook based and should be visible

The only pics I can see are from sep 26 onwards
