how do you plan to do his base?

Probably just some grass and such, like all my others. I have some dead wood and if I have some small enough pieces I may put a stick under him or something

Boba done!

I have done a lot of painting and no posting, so today/tonight I'm going to dump a lot of pics on here lol

T-47

Here are more of my Imperials.

And I wasn't going for a true "snow" look with them, cause none of my homemade terrain is snow, so they're more desert looking.

I put some brush on gloss varnish on the armor of the Death Troopers so they have a nice shine to them. Hard to pick up here, but they are quite shiny!

My 2nd Rebel Officer, base coats.

On vacation but I snapped pics of my newly-finished officer and droids before I left haha

Also my 2nd set of Commandos

Bosssssk! I did not glue his arms, so he can be posed either way! They fit fairly well without glue right now, at least.

Working on some terrain, and Bossk being sneaky

Reviving for Clone Wars!

Obi-wan.

So much fun to see your progress from the first miniature to the ones you uploaded yesterday.

Have you tried Citadel's (Games Workshop) Contrast Paints line? I am using it to paint my SW Legion original core set and I am loving the paints. Minimal effort and max result. Perfect for the grunt work.

Keep sharing pics, enjoying them a lot.

Obi-wan looks great. Nice job on the OSL. And what a terrific model. The clone wars characters are going to translate into nice to paint models because the CGI show doesn’t have a lot of extraneous details and “flair” like the costumes from the live action movies tend to.

Thanks! I think I could add a little more thin/lighter blue to his face and the cloak around his waist to enhance the OSL, but i also think I could live with it as-is.

I am nearly done with my first BARC Speeder, and I love it. It might be my favorite painting I've done for Legion lol hope to finish it up tonight.

I am not really interested in investing in the contrast paints. Not sure why, other than Citadel is expensive, and I use Vallejo for everything but shades. Also, I'm fine putting in the time on each one that I do, feels more rewarding, despite moaning through some of the boring things

Really enjoy viewing what you have done. Looking forward to more posts.

I came for the update on clones, but ended up really liking your airspeeder, gives me some ideas on how to make mine look better

It's a crazy busy week, so I haven't been able to finish as many clones as I had hoped, but here's half a squad, finished up.

I primed in Corax, German Grey, a light wash in Nuln Oil (you can see the ol washed version in the background), and then finally I went over the armor with Ivory. (I still have gunmetal dry brush to do on weapons.)

The shoulder pauldron is a recreation of the 99th Infantry Division badge, which was my grandfather's division in WWII. They were nicknamed "the battle babies," so all my Phase I troopers are "the battle shinies." I'm going to give them a gloss varnish for the armor so that they live up to the name.

Looks great!

I especially like that the nuln oil is thinned down enough so it doesn't turn you models black.

Thanks! Yeah, I will actually thin it down further for the rest of the squads, I thought it was still a bit dark for my liking.

Did you do a recess shade or a full wash?

it was a full wash, but I wiped away some of it from the armor where I knew I would just have it be purely white. It created shadows on the flat armor in places where I wanted, as opposed to just doing the recesses, like the flat torso armor plate beneath the breast plates and some of the leg pieces.

Here's my first BARC. Working on the pilot and gunner. Put some tick marks on the sidecar for the gunner's tally.

And the full squad of finished clones.

That BARC is really cool! I really like the blue accents.

Some great looking stuff!

Bring it on, clankers!

Finished all the troopers, and almost done with the 2nd BARC.

Really like the contrasting blue panels on your BARC.
