Truly glorious! You have done some amazing work this year to be sure.

Really like that last batch of troopers, the purple works great as an accent color as do the green visors!

Well done!

 

Thank you

 

This is an absolutely amazing progress done though a course of a year! Can't wait for what your dexterous claws will paint in 2022!

 

Thanks mate, can only hope I am anywhere near as productive haha

 

I distantly remember from the mists of time that you were embarking on a Star Wars Legion Episodes I-III project, and have given you a suitable like-bomb after seeing how fantastic your Clone Troopers and Battle Droids are. As a Prequels fan in particular I adore the Clone Wars Legion models, and you've certainly done them justice! In particular I like the dark green sheen on the B2s - how did you manage that? I take it Biel-Tan green wash was involved?

 

Thank you for the like-bomb haha, I'm glad you approve.
The B2s were basecoated silver, then had a coat of the Ork Flesh contrast paint thinned a bit with Contrast Medium all over. Then I edge highlighted the whole model with silver again.

 

I've finished my Republic Specialists.



First off, here's my Clone Commander. I'm very pleased with this paintjob, especially the freehand owl design. Commander Strix, ready to lead the 79th into battle.



Next is the Clone Medic. I'm really happy with the freehand medic symbols and the little bacta tank on his backpack.

 

Cont.

This is the Clone Engineer.



And lastly we have the Clone Comms Technician.



Next up will be the Separatist Specialists. I've already made a start on them.

 

What a great models!!! very well done on the freehand parts, they look amazing.
Awesome wear and tear as usual

I am in love with your clone army

Grrr, Imrahil

 

Thank you
Hopefully I can actually start to play games with them this year haha

 

That would be nice indeed!
(glad to see pics if you do so )

Grrr, Imrahil

 

So much awesomeness.

You are flipping expert at painting! I love the weathering effects!

If you don't already, I'd suggest going pro on commissions. It's that good.

 

Thank you so much, very high praise
Commissions are something I've considered, I just think I paint at too slow a pace for it to be worth it haha. I might potentially be doing one for a friend at some point though, they want the minis from a board game painted.

 

People pay for quality and if it's good enough they'd wait.

Just saying.

 

Excellent! Love the basing as always (really sells the look of them being on an alien world) and that hologram!

 

+1

Grrr, Imrahil

 

I finished painting my Separatist Specialists this weekend.




First we have the T-series Tactical Droid:



Next is the Viper Recon Droid. I really like the look of this lil guy:

 

Amazing! Really like the green tactical droid, and the drone!

 

Here's the EV-series Medical Droid. I tried to paint the vials to look like glass, semi successful in my opinion.



And lastly the little PK-series Worker Droid:



Next I'm going to try and work on some more Temple Guard, probably the command.

 

Thank you
