On the topic of painting, I have been recently working on improving my painting techniques. In general, I use Citadel Contrast Paints for most (or even all) the basic colors on my miniatures – they work well and make the process quick. They are not necessarily competition level, but certainly very good for tabletop games,…

Fleet Troopers

Got inspired over the weekend and worked on painting up my Rebel Fleet Troopers. Overall, I am rather happy with them. I also spent some side time to film the various stages, I am working on video content for that as well, if I can settle on a format that I am comfortable with –…

Wraithbone Alternatives
In an effort to find a more cost-effective base coat paint for use with Contrast paints, we spent some time this weekend finding several similar shades of spray paint to the official Citadel Wraithbone. At this point, I have an official can, and 3 alternatives ranging from 50% to 75% cheaper. Assuming they work and…

He opted to paint them in the color…

Opted for complementary colors – some dark green (Army Painter Elf Green), black, and a bright…

A-A5 Speeder Truck, phase 1
Started on the painting of my final skirmish piece, the A-A5 Speeder Truck last night, and managed to get most of the shell completed. As you can likely tell, I am going non-standard, and continuing my desert camouflage theme with darker browns rather than the light grey I have been seeing. Vehicle is pictured next…

While I have been busy painting up Rebels for Legion, he has been working on technique and practise with a collection of Galactic Republic Clones. We will both be participating in the upcoming skirmish league, so have motivation to finalize our painting.…
