Showcase: Snow Troopers!

 

Finally got to paint some Star Wars Legion figures! You can see some Snow Troopers with support. 

Tricky fellas to paint, since they're all white. But with a little artistic license and many different shades of white/cream/eggshell/unbleached wool/etc. I think I got a look that works even on a snowy table. 

Taking pictures against a white background of course was the ultimate test. ;-) Hope you like them!

Showcase: Star Wars Alliance Smugglers

...and the last models for this batch, previously unpictured. It's two Alliance Smugglers. Somehow these ended up being amongst my favourites in this batch. They're just kinda cool. :D 

I hope you made it well into 2017! 

Showcase: Star Wars Characters Pt. 3

Wow, last post of the year! Let's celebrate by having three very cool characters at once, okay? First we got Davith Elso and the one and only Obi-Wan Kenobi! I think the model really does him justice.

And look who we got here - if it isn't Lando Calrissian!

Just such a cool model. :D Very flashy and very Lando. 

Showcase: Star Wars Group Shots

Wow, it's Christmas! Time for getting everybody together for nice family photos to put on christmas cards. So get together, everyone and look presentable!

Merry Christmas from Battle Brush Studios!

Showcase: Star Wars ISB Infiltrators

These chaps here are ISB Infiltrators. The ISB (Imperial Security Bureau) being the New Order's secret police/ intelligence organization. Nasty people. 

I tried to go with overall blue combat armour, but with a purple shade as to make them look a bit sinister, but still pleasant to the eye.

Showcase: Star Wars Characters Pt.2

Today I present you with some more Star Wars Imperial Assault characters. It's the Grand Inquisitor and Murne Rin.

I really enjoyed painting the Murne Rin figure. Star Wars aliens rock, especially when wearing nice, colourful clothes!

Showcase: Star Wars Ugnaught Tinkerers

Today I would like to show you some Ugnaught Tinkerers! Why? Because they look remarkable. 

I think that in my Top10 list of Pig People in any Sci-Fi franchise they must be #2, right after actual Pigs in Space of course.

Showcase: Star Wars Wing Guard

Here's another Star Wars update. This time it's the very well-clad Wing Guard. Red base rims depict Elites/Leaders.

Showcase: Star Wars Characters Pt.1

On to some characters! All baddies this time. From left to right: Agent Blaise, Bossk and Greedo!

Here's a nice conspiracy theory: FFG's Han Solo figure (posted earlier)...

...clearly is depicted firing his Blaster. Greedo is depicted as drawing the gun from the holster. Clearly a sign that Han shot first! ;-)

Showcase: Star Wars Bantha Rider

Yup it's Star Wars time again! Starting off this batch with a cuddly Bantha with a less cuddly Tusken Raider on top.

Showcase: Star Wars MHD-17 Medical Droid

Another model from FFG's Imperial Assault game's Return to Hoth expansion set. It's MHD-17, a 'local medic' and he looks creepy as heck. Well, I guess one shouldn't be too superficial when it comes to medical personnel. All I'm saying is that back in my day it was all about catgirl nurses and we liked it that way!

Showcase: Star Wars General Sorin

Here's General Sorin, master tactician. I really like the plain look on Imperial officers, so I kept the colours to a minimum again, with just a few red details.

Hope you like him!

Showcase: Star Wars HK Droids

Today I would like to present you with four HK Droids for FFG's Star Wars - Imperial Assault board game. They're very cool designs with a vicious look to them. Or maybe it just seems like that to me because of the universally beloved HK-47 unit.

Fun models on which I deliberately went for a very straightforward look to emphasize their robotic look.

Showcase: Star Wars Scum, Stormtroopers & Wookies

In other news, here are some Star Wars minis I painted recently. Four Hired Guns, a bunch more Stormtroopers and four Wookie Warriors

They're for the Star Wars: Imperial Assault boardgame by Fantasy Flight Games and I've been painting a LOT of these over the past half year or so. And now excuse me please, I have to paint princess Leia. ;)

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault Group Shots

Gather everyone for a group shot! These are the group shots for all the minis from this batch.

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault C-3PO and R2-D2

Not much to say about these two chaps, right? 

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault Trandoshan Hunters

These Trandoshan Hunters are included in the base box of the game and against my expectations they became possibly my favourite figures from this batch. I varied the skin colour a little on these just for some variation. Hope you like them!

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault Heavy Stormtroopers

Well, happy new year, people! It's 2016. Amazing, isn't it? We're firmly in the 21st century now. All the best to all of you. May your endeavors be fruitful and blissful and may the force be with you.

Speaking of which, let's take a look at some more Star Wars figures, alright? How could we start the year better than with Stormtroopers? Heavy Stormtroopers even! Directing their fire (with mixed success, consiering the picture above) is Kayn Somos, Trooper Commander.

A prolonged firefight between Stormtroopers and Rebel Troopers. Casualties: 0, Special Effects budget: USDS 25 million

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault Rebel Troopers and Characters

Today I got a bunch of rebel scum for you. Saska Teft, a brilliant engineer (accrording to her character card), vengeful guerrilla Biv Bodhrik and six rebel troopers.

Showcase: Star Wars Imperial Assault Tusken Raiders

Now here's a particular favourite of mine: Tusken Raiders, a.k.a. Sandpeople. They ride in single pose to hide their numbers, you know.

Anyway, I love the Sandpeople. They are such a great 'low-tier' danger at the beginning of A New Hope and let us know that this universe is msysterious, dangerous and how technology is a very basic and common thing to use, even for 'less civilized' folks. They also are such a great design. You gotta love them. 

The models of course suffer from being mono-pose, but there is a lot of movement in them. Hope you like my paintjob!
