  • 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…

  • The Razorcrest

    As part of my growing terrain collection for Star Wars Legion, I opted to 3d print a scale model of the Razorcrest from the Star Wars Mandalorian series. This was a pretty long print, even with the low infill, but the model ended up pretty good. It is perhaps a bit too small and out…

  • Pools of Water and Goo

    In preparation for the secondary Pathfinder campaign, the Fall of Plaguestone, I crafted a pair of water features for the terrain. I had previously posted about this, but now the models are fully painted, and filled with resin. Overall, I am rather happy with the results. The clear resin worked very well, and I managed…

  • Star Wars: X-Wing

    Had another chance to play some more X-Wing, or at least host the game (my son and one of our other gamers actually played). The battle was a straightforward 200 vs 200, with Scum vs Empire. On the Empire side, the squadron was Darth Vader and a TIE Advanced, supported by 4 TIE fighters (most…

  • Send in the bombers

    Expanding our X-Wing collection with the latest wave, and adding the Rebel B-Wing. This has always been one of my favorite designs, even if the basic concept itself is rather unrealistic. With the new edition, Fantasy Flight has added quite a bit to the model, with a rotating mount point to the stand, folding wings,…

  • Star Wars: X-Wing

    It has been a long time, but we finally had an opportunity to jump back into the cockpit and play some more X-Wing second edition this last Sunday. Joining us for the game where my sons, George and Ben, and their friends Carter and Craig. With five players, I quickly whipped up some multiplayer rules…

  • No good to me dead

    With the recent Father’s Day, my kids and family helped me expand the slowly growing Star Wars: Legion collection with a few of the heroes and villains. The first one is Boba Fett, feared bounty hunter, and addon for the Empire’s side. The model is nice, though perhaps a bit finicky – there are a…

  • Wookiee Painting

    Been spending time painting the recently acquired squad of wookies, including Chewbacca. It is rather entertaining, trying to come up with unique styles and patterns for each piece, while still maintaining continuity. Not really sold yet on the blonde wookie – I may have chosen a bit too much yellow in the color. Hopefully this…
