By Barry Harker, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

Thought I would introduce the Showcase for the IG:2000.

Doesnt seem to get much Love and its one of the last few outstanding models to Showcase. I have seen some superb re-paints over the years on the Painting Forums. so Lets see if we can get some great examples from you guys here ☺️

I will start off with my highly modified version........doesn't really look much like an IG-2000 any more. but it has taken on another certain Killer Droid in the form of the Hunter Killers from Terminator.

Brobots Rumble and Frenzy for my Decepticon themed Scum

Posted to my personal thread, but this one needs love, too. Just magnetized the one; now to decide if the older repaint needs the treatment too.

Those Aggressors look SO good!

So you refer to them as Rick, Max and Roy? or is that Ben?

Yeah, Hikaru (Rick) and Roy were my original duo. Max Jenius is the new addition to skull squadron!

Now if FFG would just drop the points of IG-88A and let us fly A in a triple brobot list... 👌

EDIT: They just did! Long live!

Looks like what the synths from Fallout 4s The Institute would fly. Very clean work.

Let me present the meme-bot :)

That started as a joke, as some of the Padawans at the local club were playing against each other, and remarked on the IG looking like a crab....

Then my oldest child wanted his painted up...

Pencil strokes and paint layer could have been a bit thinner, but that needed to be a fast job (<1week), and it was the second repaint on that (second hand) model.

I still don't know how to photograph colorshift paint, but these can also be reddish purple depending on how they're tilted:

One turned out noticeably better than the other one for whatever reason, but I'm happy to be moving on to the next project.

Here is a repaint I did for a friend. It sends some serious "Iron Spider" vibes.
