Thanks! Obiwonka wanted a Green Squadron Pilot so that's next in the painting queue. After that, I feel like I should paint a couple Imperial ships so I don't blow my cover. Being a double-agent is nerve-wracking. Haha!
Piscopas's Paint Log
Second commission piece finished. Here's my take on the Green Squadron pilot. This one was a lot harder that the Iron Man A-wing or the one I painted in the Viridian colors.
I like that green. It's nice and vibrant.
It's been a while since I posted anything. I've been busy painting, but haven't taken the time to take any pictures. I did snap this group pic of the Viridian Starfighter group. More will be incoming!
Poll time: What would you guys like to see me tackle next?
-- Z95
-- B-wing
-- E-wing
-- K-wing
-- YT1300
E-Wing and YT-1300 please.
...another vote for the YT!
K wing!
I think your fighter group needs a B-Wing or two.
And here she is! The Viridian Starfighter Group has obtained a new support vessel, and the mechanics have given her a suitable coat of paint. She just needs a coat of varnish and a name. My YT-1300:
Very nice!
Everytime I look at my YT-1300, trying to think what to do, I draw a blank. Then I get to see awesome ideas like this.
Love the asymmetrical stripe!
Here's a couple of (poor) suggestions for a title: The Iron Lily Pad, The Jade Star.
All of your models look Fantastic.
great execution of your graphic style, yellow and green do go together very well !
great Job.
all the best,
Barry.

What Barry said...great geometric scheme, works so well as counterpoint to the disc
Nice paint job on that YT, Piscopas. Congratulations!
Regards
Wow! I was wondering if I'd get to see this beast this week!
Thanks for all the comments! That really motivates me to keep on chugging!

Seriously, that paint job is phenomenal!
Alright...Here's my attempt at an E-wing. My son chose the stripe pattern on this one, so it's okay, but I'd have gone for something a bit bolder myself. When I get around to getting him a wingmate I'll see what else I can come up with:
Next up is another commission. This one is a stealth TIE interceptor. It's going to be fun because it's so different from anything else I've done.
In your hands, the stock E looks so much better than it deserves to. Excellent work P!
These are great! Themed squads are really fun to come up with, but I always get distracted by some new technique/style and stray from my original ideas xD.
It can get a bit repetitive, but when I get tired of painting one paint scheme over and over, I just paint something else for variety. Currently, I've planned out paint schemes for my Rebellion ships, a different one for the Resistance, Empire, First Order, and Mandalorians. I'm just not sure what to do for the other Scum, but it will be a while before they make it to the top of my backlog.
The great part about X-wing vs. other games is that if they sit unpainted in my backlog for a while, no one really notices!
Wow! I agree the stripe scheme isn't quite as striking as the others, but man does that shading look amazing!
Looking forward to
kicking your butt with
seeing how stealth Soontir Fel turns out!
Oh man! It's been a while since I've been able to get on the forum. My family and I were rear-ended on the interstate, which has lead to physical therapy and endless fights with the insurance companies. Car was totaled, but we were all belted in and there were no major injuries so for that I am grateful. That said, I can't wait to dig through the Painting & Mods forum to see what you loons have been up to in my absence! Here is my own contribution. Obiwonka wanted a Stealth Device Soontir Fel, so here's my take on that idea:
Let me know what you think!
He's so beautiful! I can't wait to see this one in person. I really like the subtle purple bits, that was a stroke of genius.
