  • Star Wars

    During this extended transition, I have continued to be active collecting and preparing for my various Star Wars games, to include Legion, Armada, and X-Wing. For Legion, beyond collecting a number of additional expansions, we have branched out into the Clone Wars expansion. Those forces are limited to just the core set thus far (the…

  • Legion – Stormtroopers

    Continuing the Star Wars Legion theme, I have the first of several future Stormtroopers, assembled and painted by my son and newest adept. He has done some painting here and there over the last couple of years, but only recently has really had a lot of desire. With our current home transition, I opted to…

  • Legion – Taun Tauns

    Second of my recent painting spurt, this time Rebel Taun Tauns. Again, the painting color options were rather limited to just a starter set, so the details got a bit muddy. I was also going for less of a wintry design, with a basic concept that Taun Tauns might be transplanted to a non-Hoth world.…

  • Legion – Dewbacks

    Been doing some painting with my son, assembling and applying some paint to various Star Wars Legion figures. This is made easy given our temporary freedom between homes, though my gear options are limited. At the start, we picked up a basic painting starter set for George, so that he could dive in and start…

  • Squadron organizer

    First draft of the design for a squadron organizer for X-Wing, validating the sizing and wall structure. I am happy with these measurements, though the small holes at the top (intended for magnets) are a little too small. The rest seems to be good on the first attempt. My next stage is to work out…

  • Campaign Tiles

    I located a new Kickstarter campaign this week, which for my use and play style has quite a bit of potential. Designed for either tabletop or RPG gaming with hex-maps in mind, the design is a large collection of terrain pieces to represent various terrain features. After printing the sample model (pictured at 150% scaling),…

  • X-Wing squadrons

    Taking a break from thinking about Pathfinder and Covid recently, to do a bit of design work. I have been looking for ways to re-organize and improve my storage for X-Wing pieces and parts, and been browsing the various sites for 3d printing options. For tokens, I am working on a design that collects them…

  • Miniature Monday – Legion X-Wing

    Expanding my Star Wars: Legion terrain with several models in progress. First completed is a scale model of an X-Wing, complete with movable wings, landing gear, and a removable R2 druid. Ideally, yes, I would paint the model, but realistically it is not a high priority. The model is available on Thingiverse, and scaled specifically…
