Polda's X-Wing Repaints - Image heavy

By Polda, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

Wow. Truly impressive - all of them. I can't decide which are my favorites. Keep up the good work!

Amazing paint jobs! I absolutely love your work. I will keep checking back when I need some inspiration!

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but they're certainly different. Amazing paint as always!

He's certainly branched off into a more creative vein, but you can clearly see his roots are still firmly Star Wars, and that's something he'll never leaf.

Polda, I don't know which demands more props: the concept or the execution. ^_^

I might have to steal that gunboat scheme. What red is that? It's not overpowering the rest of the model like the royal guard red.

Apparently someone didn't sleep last night. Too busy painting.

Nah, bought them, crushed Palp Aces with them, got home 20:30 and was done about 2 hrs later (lazy drybrush yay!).

Khorne Red base, a heavy Carroburg Crimson wash and a Celestra Grey drybrush (GW paints) is a super simple and cool looking red combo.

I keep coming back and drooling over this. The ectoplasmic bits, I'm guessing you appropriated them from somewhere else? Because if you freehanded them out of something I'm giving up right now. But if they came out of a kit I might have some hope. The question is then which kit?

They do appear to be from a kit, based on the grey plastic. I'd bet on a GW one, probably one of the big undead thingies.

AoS Spirit Hosts (look for sprues on ebay or ask around in your area)

Although it's nothing that could not be done with just a little more time, green stuff and some wire.

The third and final Kimo is done! For once I actually used a reference picture (the title) 'cause I really like the art for Enforcer and Captain Jostero's K-figther (might do that one later) - https://www.artstation.com/artwork/X6xOn

Good point! - Jostero's scheme would pair well with Enforcer.
