Tripedge Painting Thread

By Tripedge, in Imperial Assault Painting and Modification

Well I've been working for a while and been posting on both instagram and the Miniatures Boardgames - Arkham Horror to Zombicide page but figured I'd also start posting some of my stuff here as well. I paint a wide variety of games including Imperial Assault and Descent 2.0 so potentially in the future there will be some stuff there but for now... On to the Imperial Assault. A good chunk of my stuff has been painted but I'm working on taking the pictures (don't really have a good place to take them at the moment) also some of this stuff was done a while ago and I've certainly improved since then so the quality will be different on some stuff.

I don't paint my games by set I paint by what I feel like and motivation so some things will be in weird format, there will also be doubles of figures and such as I bought 2 copies of most things so my buddy and I could play.

First up are 3 sets of Jet Troopers (4th set will be coming later)

I like that you gave every unit a detailed base, that's what I started doing. What materials do you mostly use?

I use a mix of the Army Painter basing materials and Citadel basing paints. Plus the realistic water by Woodland Scenics

Amazing work!

Nice minis. I'm envious. Maybe I should just suck it up and get to work on mine.

Thanks! Its a rewarding yet long process, everything just looks nicer.

Thanks!

Maybe I'm squeamish, but that's a lot of blood.

Great work overall! My favorites are your troopers.

Thanks! I do tend to go quite gory with the blood.. I just like the paint so much.

Got some more stuff coming up, some older and new that I've either recently based or that I just never ended up taking pictures of, the difference between older stuff to newer stuff quality is quite noticeable.

First up 2 sets of Alliance Rangers

IMG_20170509_173044_zpsfipvpoyp.jpg

IMG_20170509_173111_zps7nqviajf.jpg

Second variation of Shyla Varad this time in Forest gear.

IMG_20170509_172934_zpsxffrjbac.jpg

Next another Vinto Hreeda but this time with more of an old west gunslinger feel, you can't see it much in the pictures but I tried to do a wooden and brass feel to the guns.

IMG_20170509_173014_zpsr5tda2qu.jpg

Misc heroes and other characters (including my original crappy 3P0 and R2.)

I love what you've done with these, especially the Senate Guards. I may have to steel that idea!

Am so stealing your black/metal and red jet troopers. Those are fantastic, very well done!

Thanks! They were a spur of the moment idea that worked out really well.

Thanks! I figured why have all the squads look the same, Im thinking of stripping on of my other red sets for another color scheme.

Gonna have some more new stuff coming up hopefully later tonight or tomorrow morning. Got some Alliance Smugglers and Hired Guns finished up!

As mentioned earlier have some 3x Alliance Smuggler and 2x Hired Guns finished up!

I'm honestly considering getting a 4th Smuggler so I can do one with a green vest, I just really like the sculpt, it looks great!

Finished up some more Wave 9 this time with my 1st set of Hera and Chopper

IMG_20170609_155602_zpsdm5ss9oj.jpg

Also finished up a second IG88 but this time going with a red paneling similar to IG90

IMG_20170609_155548_zpslklzhlza.jpg

Finished up the second Hera and Chop, this time done up with Chops Imperial Disguise and a stealth jumpsuit for Hera

IMG_20170614_213122_zpsqslnpiay.jpg

Hera and Chop look awesome :D He needs a disguise mechanic now that makes it so imperial figures won't attack him unless he fails a stealth check. ;)
