First unit should be done tomorrow-ish.

Then it's Operative Vader time I think.

And now at last, I can go roughly highlight all the B1s. All fifthy-forking-four of them. This is a start:

Vallejo Game Terracota and GW Bugmans glow mixed at a ratio I did not write down :D

Pfffff... Vallejo German Red Brown primer, then base of Vallejo Game Terracota with a little Jade Green added to mute the shade down.

Afterwards I washed it heavily with a brown wash to get it very dirty and drybrushed the Terracota in circles over the hull. Then I added a tiny dot of GW Bugmans Glow into it to lighten it up slightly and carefully drybrushed in circles again.

I love everything about those BX droids, my favorite is the color choices for the blades.

I painted and highlighted the grenade (including the bright spots in the recesses). Then I put down a small amount of watered down PVA glue and glued on some teased out cotton wool. I airbrushed this and the surrounding areas from about 15-20 cm distance with thinned down Vallejo Fluorescent Yellow. It is important this is done slowly, and you keep a finger behind the cotton wool as the air will fold it over and it could just become stuck to the grenade. You also must make sure not to overload it with liquid or it will again just droop.

Those Umbaran bases are fantastic. The commando droid are excellent, and the color scheme complements those bases to excellent effect. Well done!

Daaamn! And here I am, still painting stuff in shades of white :D

Two words: PINK. CLONES.

The commandos are done. STAPs coming sometimes next week.

2:1 Vallejo MC Black and Vallejo Game Turquoise base, highlighted by adding more Turquoise to the mix and then some Vallejo Game Jade Green for the final highlight.

Jade green and white mix for the edge highlights.
