Pafetikbazerka’s bad kitty and other Imperial nasties

I think some of the layering could be better but not so much better it will make a difference on the table.

Not quite batch painting. Just focusing on Gideon and the wookie and spreading some love when I hit a colour on the pallet that looks useful.

So it turns out weekends are good for few things. 1 of those is painting minis while listening to the Weekender Chat show.

Trandoshan Hunters done with a series of glazes, a little drybrush, and some intervening washes.

Been struggling to find much time lately but chippin’ away, even if its only half an hour a day, it does help things progress. With E-web engineers complete there now only the Trandoshan Hunters and the Heroes to complete the starter box.

Not much time for painting this weekend, had to take take the kids to the local -con. But my 1.5mm bases arrived from Litko. Unfortunately I couldn’t ship their glue overseas so I’m trying the 2 most likely from my local store. I’l give a day before strength testing but I’m already happy with my choice to go clear.

Simple metallic 3/4 dry brush, wash and a few details. I think these things could paint themselves.

Edit: BTW I’ve been quite conscious of effect of matt v semi gloss, v gloss on this project. The original 3 movies use gloss and lighting for remarkable statements and I’ve endeavoured to maintain that flavour. These droids actually have several layers of gloss on the lenses instead of the typical highlight. I’m certainly ok with painted reflections and highlights but subject matter wanted something different.

Thought I would try my hand at under shading these. So after a dark wash I brushed on some citadel Wild Rider Red. And though I didn’t quite get the contrast or tonal variation I was hoping for it did kind of work with airbrushing the citadel Evil Sunz Scarlet over.
