Back in June I picked up the Vital Assets set as it was released, I stuck them together, primed them and they have been sat on the painting table ever since watching the Napoleonic stuff get painted.
After last weeks game where we used the mines in a primed state I decided that it was time to crack on and get them all finished.
The mines were all base-coated in VMC Black Grey then dry-brushed up with first VMC Basalt Grey and then VMC Pale Grey, the keypads etc. picked out in Ivory, Flat Red & Flat Green.
The repulsor pallets were done off a base of VMC French Horizon Blue, while some crates off of Black Grey, others off Basalt Grey and the last couple off of German Camo Beige. That was enough dry-brushing for the session so time to do some proper painting....
The second hostage steps back even further along the timeline and represents Rune Haako a Neimoidian delegate from the Trade Federation.
I've really enjoyed doing these and they made a nice little diversion from all the Napoleonics, however, it's now time for me to go back to another unit of Anglo-allied troops.
Oh! Lovely work Paul!!

DeleteThese are excellent
ReplyDeleteThank you Neil
DeleteNice mines and a lovely pair of characters!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain
DeleteLovely work on the characters! I assume they are pretty tall, like all the Legion stuff?
ReplyDeleteThank you, yes they are both pretty tall, but they are 35mm figures and tower over 28mm stuff.
DeleteYes, certainly a pity as there are a number of Legion figures I would like to get (the Imperial scouts!), but alas, no.
DeleteVictoria recently painted some Imperial Scouts and they are lovely figures: https://scrivsland.blogspot.com/2020/05/star-wars-legion-imperial-scouts-by-mrs.html
DeleteVery nice work, and thank you for identifying the hostages! I was wondering about them.
ReplyDeleteThank you, it took a little bit of Googling.
DeleteExcellent work Paul. Love the blue face.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray
DeleteGreat looking additions to your Star Wars collection, Scrivs. The faces are particularly nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dean
DeleteVery nice indeed Paul...
ReplyDeleteI like the mines... there is no mistaking them for what they are.
All the best. Aly
Thanks Aly, their purpose is certainly telegraphed.
