Dramatis Personae Rebellion

By Admiral Zaarin, in Star Wars: Armada Painting and Modification

Part of a test for a new light box, and seeing how it did with fiddly little details and what-not. I feel I just about went insane painting these, though. What do my esteemed fellows think?

Really like your Falcon paint

Looks great! The Falcon looks nice and grungy, and the Ghost looks crisp! Those colors looks very nice as well. My colors ended up a bit too bright, and they looked cartoony (I realize it is from a cartoon, but still it was too much.) Your colors look perfect though.

Love them! What colors did you use on the Falcon and the Ghost?

Thanks for the kind words guys!

The Falcon is primed in Army Painter Skeleton Bone, base colors of Vallejo Storm Grey and GW Mephiston Red added, and then a dirty wash of 1/2 Nuln Oil and 1/2 Agrax Earthshade. I only touched up the red areas and a couple of the grey, as the Falcon needs to appear good and dirty. I think I did a second, targeted wash around the exhaust vents in the back, as those are usually depicted with tons of carbon scoring.

The Ghost was primed white, two thin coats of Vallejo Pale Grey-Blue, with spot colors in P3 Arcane Blue, Vallejo Storm Grey, GW Wild Rider Red, and a mix of Wild Rider and GW Fire Dragon Bright for the engine area. A slightly thinned wash of Nuln, and the colors were all brought back up.

very nicely done!
