llu's Imperial Assault Miniature

By Iluvatar66, in Imperial Assault Painting and Modification

Hi guys.

I'm an Italian Star Wars fun.

I apologyze with you if my english will not perfect.

I'd like to share with you my Imperial Assault collection.

I thank Sorastro for his fantastic tutorial that followed for many of my miniatures then making changes in terms of shadows and mid-tones .
This is the link to my facebook album .

For all the board games with miniatures I use usually clear acrylic bases to afford to see through the various types of terrains .
I believe that this trick allows to appreciate more fully the beauty of the tiles

I thank in advance all those who will have the pleasure of watching it.
If you want it places the steps of some miniature long as you ask me .

They look great!

Thank you

Very, very nice! Thanks for sharing! Can I ask where you get the bases from and what method you use to transplant the figures?

wow! nice!

why did you change to clear bases?

I think that with clear base you can appreciate better the type of terrain in a tabletop game.

I've cut the miniature underneath the feet and pasted with attack to the clear base.

Simple

You can find it on facebook:

Love the clear bases. Really makes the minis paint schemes pop. 25mm by 2mm or 3mm?

Probably the best painted IA set that I've seen so far. Impressive, most impressive... ;) Do you use airbrush for highlights (Imp officer) or is it 100% brush work?

How did you get them off of their regular bases without slicing the crap out of the feet of the figures?

Thanks a lot. I'm not able to use airbrush :D . It's a 100% brush work

How did you get them off of their regular bases without slicing the crap out of the feet of the figures?

I use a medium cutter for first step. Then with a smaller cutter a define around the feet and underneath the feet to level. Then i use attack to paste in the clear base.

See this picture.

The utility knife at the top is for the first step , the lower one for the second.

Thanks for the tips on how to remove them. I have been wanting to rebase them for awhile now. Just was scared to do it and screw them up. I have some similar tools that I will try.

Awesome as always. Your minis are works of art. I'd live to have mine up to your or sorrestros quality someday.

Still loving the clear bases. Thinking of going with the acrylic bases too. What brand did you use?

These are all amazing quality! Thanks for sharing and looking forward to seeing more!

How did you do the tuskens and Bantha. They look amazing.

I've followed the sorastro tutorial with some light layer more.

for the Bantha horns i have started by a color a bit darker as the Karak stone and then highlighted by adding Screaming skull and white. In this way I got more intermediate tones.

Thanks a lot!

I've followed the Sorastro's tutorial for this minia.

The only difference is that I've added a very little white dot in each head lights before Ardcoat.
