I'll be doing four gaming scales for my Star Wars games. 28mm, 1:144 (10mm), 1:350 and 1:1000.
I've got loads of photos of the 28mm but I'm still sorting through them so for now I'll post the 10mm stuff I've got so far. The figures are from Pendraken (sci-fi range for the 'not' stormtroopers and Falklands war Argentinians for the Rebels). Thanks go to Mick in Switzerland for the heads upon the 10mm proxies. Vehicles are from the Bandai Star Wars Vehicle Line Up range apart from the Rebel command speeder which is scratch built mainly from an upturned y-wing cockpit interior.
Still terrain to do and it'll be Mos Eisley style and I'll be casting them up to make it easier to have a full scale town (they might even make an appearance on the website catalogue). I'll also do some smaller terrain in the form of crate piles and broken starships etc.
Vehicles are mounted on 40mm bases and the infantry on 25mm
On to the pictures, Imps first

The Rebels actually look like American WWII GI's (well to my eyes) but I haven't taken that much time on them as I’d be there for an age painting the details on.
cheers
James
-
Very cool, never thought of 10mm for Star Wars, will watch with interest
-
Hi James
Very nice work there as usual :D
I'm interested in this scale as well or maybe slightly smaller Xwing scale so more 6mm I suppose.
I have some of the bits from the old AMT kits for Hoth :)
(https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/9157U7lxLCL._SL1500_.jpg)
But I wondered if you had seen this?
http://xwingassault.com/download
Cheers Matt
-
Thanks chaps :)
Matt, I've seen the ground version of x-wing but I'm afraid x-wing isn't my favorite rules set (too many counters and things to remember). What scale is the Ertl kit 1/00?
6mm would be a good scale as the figures would be more forgiving for proxies :)
-
The scale varies a bit but basically,
Troops are 1/144 skinny 10mm. The Airspeeders vary from both sets 1/200 and 1/160. DF9 Turrets 1/144 walkers 1/220. AT ST 1/300.
Xwings 1/260 and Millennium Falcon Is about 1/240 but Ywing are tuby cockpit 1/300. Rebel transport a tuby 1/375.
As with a lot of models from that period it's very ish scale wise but works.
For Xwing I use sheet print outs with dry wipe pens to cut down on cards and counters on the table.
Hope that helps sir :)
Cheers Matt
-
It does, thank you :)
Start a thread when you do the 6mm, I'd be interested to see it 8)
-
Will do :D
Cheers Matt
-
Great finish on those vehicles, are they airbrushed?
-
Hi James
I found the old models when I got home and put a tape measure next to them and a quick look on Wookieepedia I changed the sizes above ;)
Cheers Matt
-
Great finish on those vehicles, are they airbrushed?
Nope, just inked over the raw plastic then drybrushed. Cheating I know but I want them done as quick as possible.
Hi James

Ah, certainly more suitable for X-wing 8)
I'll be doing my own turrets and whatnot and also looking at acrylic stat sheets for the vehicles as I've started (albeit limitedly ) on a simple set of home brew rules.
-
They're bloody effective.
-
Time to start another Star Wars thread :)
I think you can risk it now :)
The vehicles look great.
Argentinians. Who’d have thought it.
-
Star Wars has always been a "when", not so much an "if" for me. I know I'll get around to it some day. It's one of the few IPs I think I'd consider in a smaller scale, though 28mm would be fine of course. Can't wait to see where this goes.
-
Thanks gents :)
Should hopefully start in terrain this weekend.
I know I'll get around to it some day.
I hope it’s sooner rather than later :)
-
Well?
Get on with it. >:D ;D
-
This looks great - well done.
I suspended my Star Wars Project when I was commissioned to write a book. I will go back to it at some point.

First building done and it will be cast along with the vast majority of the others I plan to do; partly to make town building easier, partly to sell.
Here's the front. Quite simple for now but there are many different forms that these buildings can take so there'll be plenty of choice :)
Figures aren't up to much but they will almost look like tokens on the board so I'm not that bothered.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/31/2619-030318154404-31642133.jpeg)
I've also dug out my toy Falcon and although it's not quite to scale it'll certainly do for this exercise.
-
Following with great interest. :D
As you bloody well know... ;D
-
those really do look the part don't they!
While legion has left me cold, seeing other hobbyists responses to it (in the form of different projects) has really given me a star wars itch, and you aren't helping .I've only just got all the tiny foam trees out of my beard from the last lot of star wars modelling i did....
-
Nice to see all your big projects being brought back to life! :-* I feel we lost a lot of good stuff when Photobucket messed us all up
-
I've nearly sorted my photos out an will start to post previous stuff this coming week :)
-
Obviously didn’t get round to posting my original photos but I have got some new stuff :)
Solo got me inspired for Star Wars again and so for now we have a rebel trooper (Pig Iron near future) with a helmet sculpts which still needs a tad of a tidy.

And then we have a tree for Endor. This one is just a sample to try the technique and as I’m happy with it I’ll be doing a tutorial next week when I do some more :)

I’ll also be doing some Imperial buildings but not for a while yet.
-
Nice job on the tree. I could see some platforms and bridges connecting a few of those at a higher level.
-
Nice tree. I am looking forward to your tutorial.
I have also been making trees for Endor using air drying clay over plastic pipes.
I had problems with cracking so ended up repairing them with hot melt glue and Milliput and then a layer of tissue.
They will look OK but it was a lot of work.
-
Thanks chaps :)
Platforms are a possible option but for the moment it’ll be film based (around the bunker and other Imperial installations) and not Battlefront based.
I’ll hopefully be able to do the tutorial later tomorrow.
-
Nice work.
How tall is the tree?
-
Good start mate! :-* Are you going to add some knots, branches and branch cut offs to the next trees?
What’s the plan? Just trees or are you building a bunker or(even better) an AT-AT/shuttle docking platform?
BTW you really need some log piles and ewok traps for your AT-ST to trip over!
-
Thanks chaps :)

This one is about 300mm but the other tubes are around 400mm.

All of the above at some point or another :)

Finished yet, then? ;)
-
Finished yet, then? ;)
Ahahahaha ::)
lol
got some casting and commission work to finish off today before carrying on with these unfortunately.
-
That looks great, how many are you going to make? Have you got ewoks?
-
Hopefully going to make 20-30 and yes, I do have ewoks >:D
-
That rebel trooper is looking great.
Simple and efective conversion. :)
-
Cheers mate :)
Finished him this morning. I've got some alien heads I can use for some of the other troopers, it's just a shame the back pack and airplane slippers aren't separate.

Great painting. :-* :-*
You are giving me some crazy ideas for my rebel group. :D

Nice painting, and the detail with the basing is top notch, especially the ferns.

That’s nicely done 8)

Nice. :D

Smashing James :)

Thanks fellas :)
After Tuesdays game, like a butterfly, I’ve moved back to the second most wretched hive of scum and villainy; Mos Vegas :D
Got plenty of buildings for this already but a few more wouldn’t hurt. This one has a ‘garage’ on the side but whether to leave it open or have a blast shutter in place is a question that hasn’t been decided yet.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-130618200504-33742903.jpeg)
Also got some more walls on the go. They’ve only got a base in the middle as the ends should fit on the existing building bases.

-
I like the idea with the walls. Mos Vegas is a great set up, always good to see it being added to.
-
Ohhh, cool! I love it even at this stage, looking forward to seeing it finished.
-
Mos Vegas? You'll need a Spacelvis singing "Don't Step on My Blue Space Shoes"
(and I have already got a 15mm Spacelvis...)
-
Thanks chaps :)
No Spelvis I’m afraid lol
Might be able to gloop the building and walls before the weekend.
-
Looking great, !! 8)
-
Thanks :)
So, like the butterfly I am I’ve started to wander :D Every space port needs cargo and all cargo needs haulers. I’ve got plenty of cargo cast up but no way of transporting it around.
To begin with I had three arrangement options...

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-160618015342-337911009.jpeg)
In the end I went for option three (option one was a possibility but the arrangement for three seemed the better one). So after deciding which one to go for I did a very quick iPhone sketch for the superstructure. Engines to the right, cockpit to the left.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-160618015343-337921136.jpeg)
The rear engine section has been roughed out (the two black circles are for the engine placement) and the main support beam for the cargo is in place.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-160618015542-337951213.jpeg)
Also, I’ve decided to magnetise the cargo pods. Small magnets have been drilled into the ‘top’ of the pods and corresponding magnets have been glued into the support beam.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-160618015540-33794843.jpeg)
There will be little brackets attached to the support beam to help keep the pods regular and to also add detail. I’ll rough out the cockpit area next and then work on the superstructure for the beam.

It will inevitably be reminiscent of these. Not that that's a bad thing! :)

Nice! The magnets are a cool touch.

What about instead of a skimmer or ship, what about doing a cargo version of one of these....

They made a cargo version of the AT-AT in Rogue One, so why not one of an Imperial Juggernaut? It would make a good plot point for your games too!....raid the Imperial convoy. The piece you’ve made could easily be adapted to make it. Just go with the same design aesthetic as your cargo hauler, a main backbone, with a cockpit section at the front and a boxy bit at the back.
-
Am liking this. Very much. 8)

Thanks chaps :)

Quite possibly but the front of mine will/should be quite tall :)

I did think of a wheeled/tracked version but given the terrain on Tatooine I thought a ship would be more practiced. It can also be used for space actions which are an intention at some point (using the Bandai 1/72 ships).
I’ve always fancied making a 28mm jugganaught but it would be huge lol

Good start :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
I am surprised that it does not run on a monorail twisting though your settlement

Will you be making a version with a bigger rack?

Managed to get a bit more done on this whilst waiting for other things to dry, namely the front bit. It's still quite blocky and the cockpit needs to go on the top (see picture below) but the form is getting there. The spine will be a lot thicker but I need to have a look for some suitable struts that'll fit.

It's not really Star Wars without gubbins filled recesses :) Only the one on this ship but there'll be plenty of Star Wars styling panelling to make it feel at home along with plenty going on at the rear around the engines.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-160618141933-338012445.jpeg)
And here is a iphone sketch of what the cockpit will potentially look like. I need some more thought on this but the general idea is to have the 'glass' projecting slightly over the prow. I might need to take off some of the top front of the prow but we'll see (I'm making it up as I go along lol)

Dude, this is Mos Bibbly. You're thinking of Mos Ogdenville and Mos Haverbrook.
That is a rather nifty build, straight lines and angles and all. I must admit I had hopes for that cargo lifter from Solo when I saw the new topic header, but this is quite special already (although I must say the overall layout doesn't exactly go "Star Wars" for my taste - still, given panelling and greeblification, I'm sure it will fit right in).

Yes, monorail for when I do Corellia lol

Thanks for the info James. :)

So, fluttering around I took some photos of the figures and most of the scatter terrain I’ve got so far. The ones in the last picture are available here http://www.oshiromodelterrain.co.uk/scifi.html (http://www.oshiromodelterrain.co.uk/scifi.html)
Droids. Back row are bendys, front row are scratch built
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-180618000107-338202345.jpeg)
Rebels. All bendys apart from the Jedi and now they have a coat of mat varnish.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-180618000109-338211800.jpeg)
Imperials. All bendys including the probe droid. Officers now have a coat of mat varnish.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-180618000111-338221950.jpeg)
Scum. All bendys apart from the little fella in purple. These also now have a coat of mat varnish (see the pattern developing here lol)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-180618000112-33823721.jpeg)
Large scatter. This isn’t all of it, there are other bits in the garage.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/33/2619-180618000114-338242153.jpeg)
Based scatter. For a more clumpy feel.

Small, loose scatter (available in the catalogue link above)

What an update! :o :-*
Great selection of stuff mate! 8)
-
Excellent. It’s a splendid collection. Even the Jedi that dies immediately lol
-
Lovely stuff!! :-* :-*
-
You've scrubbed up those bendies nicely. I think you need a rancor though.
-
Thanks chaps :)
I think you need a rancor though.
It has potential but I’d have to with ‘Legends’ canon and re-read the Tales from Jabba’s Palace ;)
-
A rancor on a monorail.
I'd looked at some of the unarmed bendies for civilians, but quite a lot of them aren't particular nice sculpts. A baggage laden ronto would look cool too, with the possibility of it going amok mid game.
-
Excellent. It’s a splendid collection. Even the Jedi that dies immediately lol
Yep and that Jedi has a particularly fine paint job. ;) :D
-
Not keen on rontos, I’d rather have a couple of dew backs.

Unlike the rest lol

nice indeed like the scratch transport

Got a couple more Endor figures done even though the weather lends itself to not being able to paint properly. The advantage is of course that everything dries really quickly so I can get them finished in one sitting :)
Alien rebel trooper. Really pleased with the way the head turned out (it's from Crooked Dice).
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/34/2619-080718111817-34187247.jpeg)
Then some bendy plastic scout troopers. real difference in the sculpting on these but hopefully it won't be that noticeable on that tabletop. Scout trooper poses are really limited so I'll have to do some chopping around to get some variation.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/34/2619-080718111819-341891531.jpeg)
And 'all' the figures for Endor so far (loads to go still).

Nice work, mate.
The bases look very 'Endor'.

Without being too daft - what do you use for the bases, because they're ace too :D
-
Cheers again fellas :)

The bases for Endor are 2mm acrylic with some gloop applied (the gloop is a mix of filler, glue, paint and very fine sand). it's roughly painted and inked and given a thin, uneven layer of small, mixed green spongy flock. Suitable 'ferns' and plants are then stuck on.
The Tatooine bases are again 2mm acrylic but this time with sand glued on and a layer of textured masonry paint applied over this, a thin wash of the GW warm brown ink (can't remember the stupid name) is put on and then mostly dabbed off with a tissue.
The same methods apply for the larger bases as well.
-
Love what you've done with the rebel commando's! Can't wait to see more! 8)

Got persuaded to make a quickie bunker entrance for an Endor game on Tuesday (as if I didn’t have enough to do already ::) ). Lasered walls with styrene additions. Quite a few things ‘wrong’ with it but it’ll certainly do for a game. Still needs a baseboard as well and I’ve started to rough that out.
The colour might be a bit wrong but I had to use my Tamiya sprays as they’re the only ones that give a decent finish in this heat.

This thread's a bit good! The bunker looks great.
As a long time fan of all things desert, all the desert legion stuff coming out is looking like a bit of a godsend!

Cracking wee building Jim
I Love the little details inside the door way :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Nice work :)

Quite a few things ‘wrong’ with it but it’ll certainly do for a game.
Honestly I can't see a single thing taht is wrong - that one would be more than good enough for me to have it on any table! Great work.

Thank you kindly chaps :)

I recently bought the Multiverse Gaming Terrain Imperial Bunker, which is a poor man's version of your bunker.
I have not built it yet.

Perfect! It just needs some big ass trees around it now! ;)

Too job mate, that really looks the part.

If that is your concept of 'a few things wrong', I'd like to know your idea of 'dammit, it's perfect', because that's what I think of that piece!! :-*

The bunker looks great (wouldn't mind one of those myself :D)

Yeah its awfull!!!
Do it again and send that one to me... :D

Many thanks again gents :)
Unfortunately, this is staying right here :P
Finished it though embedded in some rocks and groundwork (report to follow tomorrow)

Had a chat last about what to add and the main consensus was shit loads of large trees lol
-
Brilliant job
-
Great!! :-* :-* :-*
-
What about adding a large dish/shield generator to blow up during games? Or even an AT-AT/shuttle landing pad? ;)
-
Those go without saying ;D
I’ve got the turbo laser tower that I’ve been meaning to add a different top too (dish).
The other thought is to do interiors. There’s a great deleted scene of the rebels just after they break into the bunker and come across some storm troopers before they reach the control room. I also made a start on a hanger a while ago that could be pressed into service.
-
Many thanks chaps :)

Well, they got a point - right now, I cannot see the woods for NO trees.
That bunker is already marvellous, though. Dare I say, endorable. I really like how the colours work together as a cohesive whole, yet provide a distinct individual tone to each component of the piece.
-
Needs more Ewok. ;)

What about making an ATAT hanger built into a cliff? Or even something smaller, an ATST hanger with some speeder bikes? Something similar to your bunker piece. I’m sure Star Wars Battlefront had some good locations.....

No, because of electrostatic repellers (ie technobabble) ^__^.
-
The impetus of the Build Something Contest has inspired me to get a bit more generic terrain done for Endor. For now a cliff face for the table corner.
The gaps between the larger pieces will be filled with ‘off cuts’ of the plaster rocks then the tops will be smoothed with filler, then gloop and painting :)
Should fit stylistically with the bunker and terrain boards.

Woodland Scenics plaster moulds. Saves so much time lol

Got this done for the game yesterday and also a couple of scatter pieces to go with the others I had.
Also there’s the Bandai AT-ST :)
Slightly dodgy photos as they were taken quickly.

Well done, it all looks jolly smashing.

I enjoyed shooting down the AT-ST :D
The terrain looks even better in the flesh than in the photos. The cliff is excellent. I’ve often toyed with getting the Woodland Scenic moulds. Think I might succumb...
Thanks James :)
-
Brilliant stuff mate! :-*
That ATST has definitely seen some wars! :o Are those Ewoks ditching catapults for blasters now? ;)
-
Bloody marvellous! Do you need my address to send all this to...? ;)
-
Wow. I love that corner piece. Glad to see that the Empire put their rubbish and recycling out, part of keeping Endor clean I guess.
I have a woodlands scenic mold. I must use it for creating a cliff for my castle. If it turns out a quarter as good as yours I'll be super happy!

Totesamazeballs! :-*

Master!

That is really impressive how that cliff came together! Well done! :o

Thanks chaps :)
The cliff has hardboard edges so I can replicate them and do a similar thing that the good Dr has done here http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=105875.180 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=105875.180)
Might look at a landing platform next week :D
-
"Ruthless and inventive."
-
;)
Temptation has taken the better of me and made me start on a landing pad for Endor. It’ll be a corner piece with only two ‘jetties’ but with a possible potential for adding more if I can be bothered. The AT-AT is the crappy Revell one but after a bit of tarting up and fixing of the dodgy legs it’ll be fine.
Top half of the tube needs sorting as well as the pad itself. The jetty roofs are removable to allow for painting and there is a possibility of getting lighting in there :?
The tube will be panelled and there will be a door at the bottom. I think I might leave it without a base so it can be used in Tatooine and other locals.

Are you recreating all of Endor? lol It looks good, those walkways are very nifty.
-
That's a cracking build grommit
The tube will be panelled and there will be a door at the bottom. I think I might leave it without a base so it can be used in Tatooine and other locals.
Won't that make it a bit unstable? Could you do a base for Endor and a base for Tatooine that has a post/receptor that the tower slides over and attaches to?
I know at least one clumsy oaf that's likely to knock it over mid game if it's not stable ;) lol
-
Very nice - I look forward to this being painted (and lights!).
Though little disappointed, I read the thread title as "Endor love pad".
-
Tee-hee-hee! He’s finally caved! lol
Fucking brilliant big chap, just like I knew it’d be! :o :o :oThat's a cracking build grommit

The right honerable gentleman has a good point! Especially if you’re going to add a platform above and place your delicate Imperial Shuttle up there! :o
Just remember.....Wargamers are clumsy! It only takes a jumper or a misplaced jacket pocket( ::)) to bring down and break it ALL back to its constituent parts! :'( :'( :'(
So.......when are you building a Death Star to hover above the table? ;)

He can just shave his head and paint that.. :D
The pad and the rest of Endor looks great. You should build some of the Ewok traps.
-
Looking good :)

Pure porn modelling. :-* :-*
Looking forward for the rest.

Cheers fellas :)

I've got some weights to go in the bottom but multi bases could be an option.
Though little disappointed, I read the thread title as "Endor love pad".
Who know's what those furry little buggers get up to lol
Tee-hee-hee! He’s finally caved! lol
You're a bad man lol
I've got part of a large dome that could be hung from the ceiling lol
You should build some of the Ewok traps.
I've had it mind and certainly a catapult should be done :)
-
Most impressive!
8) 8)
-
Great work :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Looking forward to seeing some lights on it and a landing pad for a shuttle
Is the tube hollow? Could you not make a base that will fit inside what you have already built that can slide over a smaller diameter tube fitted to the base, one jungle and one desert?
-
Much cooler than the Endor escalator! ;)
-
beautiful work the At-At can he tilt his head down ??? like the one from kenner
-
Thanks again :)
Could you not make a base that will fit inside what you have already built that can slide over a smaller diameter tube fitted to the base, one jungle and one desert?
That’s looking like an option. I’d have to do something small to cover it when the pad isn’t in use (not a problem really). It’ll also help to have it removable if I put lights and batteries in it.
Much cooler than the Endor escalator! ;)
??? I think I’m missing something there?
beautiful work the At-At can he tilt his head down ??? like the one from kenner
No, it’s crap lol Nothing that the judicious use of a hammer, scalpel and pliers won’t solve >:D
-
Bloody marvellous!
-
that's what it seemed to me it looks weird. with 2 or 3 strokes of scalp it will have a better head I'm sure ... ;)
-
Wow, that's promising. But right, you better make that bottom heavy :P
-
:o :o :o :o those catwalks are top notch, JIm. AWESOME job!!!!!!!!
-
Impressive!
-
Belated thanks :)
It was inevitable really, what with the new teaser trailer dropping today that I’d get a bit of Star Wars done lol
We’re having an impromptu Endor game on Tuesday and I think I’ve got time to squeeze in a little radar dish to go on top of the turbolaser tower I’ve had built for a while.
Just the main basic shapes for now, I’ll do some detailing work on it on Sunday and should be able to get a quick paint job on it on Monday.

The landing pad isn’t forgotten, just put to one side temporarily ;)
-
So weak lol
Looking turbo good so far. :D
-
At last, the ewoks will have Wi-Fi! You couldn't not have one really. :D
-
Looking good, O Weak One!
:D
At last, the ewoks will have Wi-Fi!
lol lol
Now you will have real trouble keeping the little furry buggers off of their phones.
;D
-
Cheers fellas :D
Got another little bit of scatter done and will spray this the same time as the dish. It’s on a generic ‘Star Wars’ plate so it could go anywhere.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/38/2619-130419121803-385141508.jpeg)

Interesting piece
What's the figure I don't recognise it?
-
Pig Iron trooper with a Crooked Dice head :)
-
That’s a nifty piece 8)

Just a quick paint job for it. Now for the dish...

I bet the cat is looking for its dinner plate. But screw that, it looks great like this!
-
Nice piece of terrain. :-* :-*
Looking forward for the painted radar dish.
-
Cool generator/generic-Star Wars-thingymajig!
-
Awesome work!
Very, very cool!
-
Thanks chaps :)
Got the dish done in time for the game (report of which when I edit the photos) and finished weathering the actual tower which needed to be done for over a year lol
The TIE is Bandai 1:72 and the AT-ST is Bandai 1:48, figures are WOTC 28mm bendies.
Fortunately, the gun portion had a lug with a corresponding hole in the tower that the dish support fit into out of pure luck so there was no faffing around needed :)

It’s actually a left over vacform from a model of the Millennium Dome I worked on years ago :)
-
Awesome! 8)
That tower is a mad piece of terrain at this scale, but it sure looks the part. It's size really becomes apparent with the AT-ST next to it lol
And I really like the multi-functionality of it, now there is a radar (or communications?) dish to replace the turret. Either will make for a great objective to fight over.
I take it the X-Wing is 1/48 also?
-
Lovely pieces of terrain. :-* :-*
That multi-use tower is great.
I must do that to my 15mm SW stuff. :)
-
Whoa! That is BIG :o
Excellent James 8)
-
Top drawer, mate.
8) 8)
That certainly is big. Bibbly Scale, I guess.
Be careful as it may give some of your group a complex, towering over them like that.
;) ;D
-
Cheers fellas :)

1:72, same as the TIE. All the Bandai fighters are 1:72. I really wish they were 1:48 or 56 but they'll do :)
-
Cracking job :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Looking forward to the battle report

Top notch big stuff!!! :o :o Just another few thousand to build and you have a Death Star! ;)

That’s the easy part. The hard part will be the flying rigs he will need to move the fighters around. :)

Belated thanks :)
I've been slowly going through the games we've had and been editing the pictures and sorting out battle reports. They are going on my blog as it's easier to link them elsewhere but there are some choice pictures here and of course there will be terrain and figure updates here as and when. The old report for the Endor mini campaign is at the bottom of this post :)

Will have another game report this coming week but in the mean time I’ve been able to spend a bit of time on some of the smaller Bandai ships I’ve got.
They are around 1:144 but there’s a few discrepancies here and there (I’m not too fussed though as at least they’re getting done).
The colour schemes are the same as the larger versions and when I get a chance I’ll take some comparison photos.
The first four fighters from Cobalt squadron. I haven’t quite finished writing the fluff yet but it’s a bit of a ragtag squadron and it’ll include some uglies.
Cobalt 1

Cobalt 4
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/39/2619-130719212435-39742466.jpeg)
And of course, they need some enemy fighters (only one for now as the others need titivating)
TIE Advanced X1

Nice! The uglies are always my favourites.
Didn’t know Bandai did 1/144 ,probably not a bad thing,as my 1/72 and 1/48 kits sit still in their boxes waiting some heresy... ;D
-
Nice ships James. :-* :-*
-
Nice jim :-* :-* :-*
How do your A Wing scale up with your SW figures
I Have the Action fleet one and I thought it was small
-
Thanks chaps :)

It’s the vehicle model line. The TIE’s are around 1:126 so a bit bigger than they should but I suppose it’s more ‘box scale’ more than anything.
Go get some, they’re really cheap >:D

Do you use any house rules or do you just use the rules as they are?
Do you use vehicle rules?

Cheers fellas :)

No house rules (I think) and we used psyonics for the Force. No vehicles this time but it’s getting to the point where I want to use them so will be going from the Galactic Heroes Vehicle Manual and altering to fit.

Please, sir! It was cannibalistic (!) teddies with a strong warrior code, excellent knowledge of the terrain and pretty good preparations for an all out war.
Rumors have it that all former anthropologists sent to Endor simply got eaten, and that before the Empire forced the different Ewok tribes into an Alliance there was all out war!
Just think about it, these guys managed to amass an army of several thousand (?) teddies in a couple of hours, had aerial attack gliders and huge traps ready and didn’t cease their attacks when casualties started to rise!
Probably they could easily beat a Space Marine chapter and wipe their furry butts with the sporadic predator stupid enough to land on Endor!
-
Fantastic work, James! Very inspiring ... :-*

So, nothing new for this project but I did promise the Admiral that I would go through my old photos that were lost on the original thread.
First up is one of the first buildings I made for Mos Eisley; Sousan's Starship Parts and Repairs. The main construction was made from 10mm blue foam based on 3mm hardboard. The texture was a mix of filler, fine sand, paint and glue (although I've changed the recipe since then). The whole lot was sprayed with Halfords khaki brown, given a thin wash of something of a warm brown nature (really can't remember what it was lol) and then heavily drybrushed up through some tans to almost white.
The dome is just a plastic one (polystyrene could be used as well, it's just I had plenty to hand), the brown box is a left over lift over run from a job from years ago and the yellow 'buttresses' are just large chunks of another type of foam. The scraps and parts are from my extensive bits collection that I've been hoarding for years and years and just randomly picked out.
The intention was to do the interiors as well and that is still the case, so once we come back to Mos Eisley in our games they will probably get done.

cheers
James

Nice to see you back at this :-* :-* :-*
Always good for inspiration

Cool.

Thanks chaps :)
Unfortunately, it would seem I've lost more photos than I thought but there's still a couple of locations I haven't looked through yet so I'll keep my fingers crossed.
-
Star wars isn't usually my bag but this thread is topper. Well done indeed!
-
Thanks :)
Here are some more of the early Mos Eisley wips. Same principle as the first one shown and I’ll post some better photos of the painting process in a few days and hopefully some wips of the scatter terrain.

Onward with photos from the previous thread and next up is the hanger bay (for the life of me I can't remember which number I gave it lol).
Blue foam again for the construction and the pad itself was already made. The ring on the roof (which was the part that determined the inspiration and the size) was a left over from my old job. A few domes here and there, some gubbins, a lot of gloop and some paint and we're done :)
I decided to give it a more Star Wars feel on the inside with some Imperial style wall panels (lasered acrylic) but dirtied them down along with the bits and pieces in there.

Fantastic!!

That's look ace James! :-*

Lovely stuff. I particularly like that you've detailed the walls with an interior finish, rather than simply replicating the exterior render.

Thank you chaps :)

I’m hoping to do something similar with the interiors of some of the buildings. Probably not using the Imperial design though.

Megaohwowmy! ;D

Looks like something straight out of Mos Eisley.

Wow! That's amazing! Are you going to cast it up and sell it on your website? lol

Superb :o

Wow, it's amazing, looks fantastic :)

Thank you :)
Onto some ships now and first off is the Y-fighter that was converted from a Bandai 1:72 Y-wing. Lots of gubbins from the bits boxes and some styrene sheet. I'll post the painted ones in a few days.

Awesome.
What are you thinking of doing for the landing gear?

Just to say though that these photos are from a few years ago and I’m going through the old ones to repopulate this new thread (as the old one is defunct).
Painted pictures to follow when I get a chance :)

Here are the painted photos :)
Got a game next week (HUZZAH!) but I'll post another ship in a few days.

Here's the next one to add from the old photos, a planetary shuttle. Doesn't even have a hyperdrive and is mainly used as a 'ship to shore' shuttle. The main body and engine block were made at uni many, many years ago. I'm both surprised and pleased that it lasted this long :D

Great to see these back. Brilliant work.

You really have a great eye for gubbins, thingamajigs and dodads. I find when I try making stuff like that it looks like a lot of junk and sprue clippings glued together. But you somehow makes it look like everything serves a purpose.

I can take hours sifting through my various bits boxes looking for the appropriate bits lol

I remember this one :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Me too!
I love the off centre cockpit.
:-* :-*

Very cool mad skills!

Thanking you :)
I love the off centre cockpit.
It's an upside down toilet but don't tell anyone I told you lol
Here are the painted pics. I haven't actually taken any decent ones on this but I suppose when I get a chance I should take decent photos of everything so at least they're all similar.
You will notice that Tag and Bink are up to their usual tricks :D

Smart work 8)

Fabulous :-*

Top work, James. Now some inspiration for a board for the second Box of SW Legion, please.
-
Very nice work.
-
Cracking paint job :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
I top my hat to thee sir for that is some splediferous work
-
Excellent stuff - really captured the SW vibe and styling. Dangerously close to inspiring me to finish a couple of half-finished ships cluttering up my hobby area ::)
-
Wonderful! Now you can cast it up and sell it in your web store next to the docking bay! lol
-
Many thanks chaps :)

Not to distract you from that wonderful build you’re working on at the moment but. Do it! lol

I’ve got some more utility vehicle masters on the go along with something a bit more military based and I have thought about small ships, they will need a bit more design work though to make them reasonable for casting :)
-
outstanding like it a lot
-
I really love that off-white light green panel. Nice little detail ;)
-
An excellent build, particularly like the weathering

-
Cracking work :-*

Cheers fellas :)
Here are the wip shots of the T-16 that was done ages ago. It was drawn in cad and cut from 0.5 acrylic and then layered up to allow for the panel lines etc. Serious gubbins work on the engine and underneath.
It isn't an exact replica of the film version as I wanted a personalised one used by a engine jockey in the Beggars Canyon races. The wings fold though so it can 'land' (although how it does that is still debatable).

What a great ship, shame it was not highlighted more in the movie. The Star Wars radio play made it really soar.
As always, I love the model.

What sort of glue do you use when building these creations?
-
Thanks gents :)
What sort of glue do you use when building these creations?
Basically Plastic Weld for plastics (acrylic and styrene etc) and super glue for the other stuff. I’ll occasionally use a bit of wood glue but not often.
-
Lovely build, your work is always impressive!
-
I need to take some decent photos of the T-16 but for now I've finished off building this little beastie and got a coat of primer on it.
It's a Kuat Drive Yards Stellar class freighter although there's nothing really stellar about it; it's a proper piece of junk lol
The cargo is magnetised and I'll be doing some other types of container that will be going in the catalogue in the New Year.

Interestingly, it can also pass for 1:144 scale. Here are some Bandai kits alongside. I'd need to magnetise the ships and also make some tubes for the TIEs like that are on the Gozanti cruiser...
It'll carry four TIEs or two rebel ships (three if they are A-wings). It might even carry a Falcon but I haven't got the 1:144 Bandai Falcon yet

Damn, that’s amazing

Thank you kindly chaps, it was great fun bashing it together :)
-
Thats very nice with lots of multi-scale possibilities. It would work with the nominally 1:288 Star Wars models just as well.
-
That freighter is stunning. :o Any chance of you casting it and selling copies? :P
-
:-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Outstanding job, Jim. Congrats again!!!!!
-
Cheers again :)
Any chance of you casting it and selling copies? :P
None I'm afraid.
-
Just lovely. :-* :-*
And i like the use of your engines.
Maybe i will use 2 for my transport ship.
-
Very nice.

Oh my!

Brilliant work!
-
This. Wow...just wow!
What that nice man just said.

Thats a cracking build mate! Top notch! :o :-*

Thanks again chaps :)
I’ll hopefully get some proper paint on it this week. Probably light grey with various ‘patches’ in other colours.

I’ve built a little connecting tube for the smaller scale TIEs and when it’s cast I’ll put some magnets in it and take some more photos with the 1/144 ships :)
-
fantastic!
-
Awesome!
-
Wowzers!
-
That’s a bit good :)
-
Excellent weathering. I tried the panel thing myself and it just looked shit compared to what you've achieved.
-
Amazeballs. It was worth the wait! Mega Wow! ;D
-
Excellent.
-
Superb. Simply superb.

Many thanks gents, quite pleased with how it turned out :)

Very nice James - I like the soot.

Many thanks gents, quite pleased with how it turned out :)
And so you should be, it's brilliant.
Now all you need is the alternative load outs for the cargo ;) :)
-
Lovely build and painting :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
It looks very much like a tramp freighter hauling around the system with a cargo of dubious origin and legality! :)
-
Love it. And especially since it can be used for different scales.
-
Missa likit. :-* :-*

Too nice! :-* :-* Has the proper SW feel. Looking forward to your next addition to this thread.

Some 1/1000 I think :)

I imagine the storage capacity of several of those containers in 1/1 scale that you must have to keep all those giant gaming pieces and boards and buildings of yours safe and secure! :o :o :o
That freighter is another inventive piece of your genius with these interchangeable magnetic cargoes...
-
Some 1/1000 I think :)
Waiting...*tap tap tap*

I wish lol
I’ve finished off the Nebulon-b that was start several years ago and have taken piccies of all the 1/1000 fleet ships I’ve got so far. The group photo at the bottom also shows the two blockade runners from Bandai that are unfortunately just shy of 1/1000.
I’ve got some Shapeways fighters but I’m not going to use them and I’ll be drawing and printing my own (and before anyone asks, they won’t be for sale).

What's next?
No idea mate lol

Great to see them all together ... I struggle to find room for my fleet in 1/2256 scale so god knows where you store this lot in 1/1000 ;D
-
very nice fleet!

Amazing!

No you're just showing off. The light is really cool, You should also include a very small transparency of Luke and Leia watching Lando and Chewie blast off.

Amazing indeed :o
Now get back to some figures, you big jessie.
;) lol

Had a bit of a play around with some magnets at the weekend for the cargo freighter. Drilled a hole in one of the new releases for the same magnets that are in the joining beam (the yellow ones are the original).

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/43/2619-200120163951-435991260.jpeg)
I’ve had a little ‘thing’ hanging around for a while now and decided to cast it and stick magnets in it too and bottom as it’ll be just right for a TIE boarding tube. I also added magnets in the top of the TIEs but there’s no photos of that. I will need to sort some out for the rebel ships as this is more in keeping with the rebellion. The principle works for the boarding tubes so there’s no reason I can’t do another ship that’s more Imperial looking...

The tubes also work with cargo and could represent it being lowered or raised. They can also be fit in between the TIEs but it’s a bit of a squeeze.

What scale are TIEs?
Around 1/144 (they’re not painted yet).
-
Clever stuff 8)

That really increases the uses for the model, lovely stuff.
Ties the whole thing together nicely!
I'll get my coat.

seeing the frigate makes me want to play the old x wing computer game. I won't though as I imagine it hasn't aged very well at all. A very impressive build.

I played through the entire expanded TIE-Fighter game (including all the expansions) again just last year, and even though the graphics are obviously dated, I found it was still a joy to play, even after all these years 8)
It has inspired me on several occasions to create custom scenario's for X-Wing (the FFG variant) to play, and those were always fun too :)
-
Man, THAT was a good game! Decent plot line too!!!
-
Excellent stuff. ;D
-
Belated thanks gents :)
I'm still waiting for a modern version of the X-wing computer game to surface. I'd be all over that like a rash lol
Hopefully having a game on Tuesday and in the meantime I've been doing scatter terrain here and there whilst waiting for other stuff to dry.
Good old Tag and Bink for scale :D

You actually won a game :o :o :o
You will need to print out the photos and frame them :D
Looking forward to seeing them

Nearly finished the report although I might keep it to myself lol
Had these sat in a shelf for while half done but had some similar flocking to do on a commission so got to finish them off :)

Well, if you watch the explosion in RotJ you can see part of the disc spinning away. Admittedly, it should’ve suffered a bit more falling onto Endor but let’s be honest, it’s cool :D

Well, I caved and got D+ and have watched the three episodes available for The Mandalorian (it’s being released weekly here).
It’s aces! :D
Going to have a go at some Navarro style terrain. Not lava but the same sort of colours and dusty feel. I’ve got a sample rock outcropping done and will be working on some buildings shortly (potentially for casting and release). Fortunately the colours are the same as my Limehouse boards so I don't have to make any new ones :)

Jim,
They look very good. :-*
How did you do them? Is it just pink foam carved?
It looks really like a rocky outcrop.
Mick
-
Thanks Mick 8)
Yes, just blue/pink foam carved up with a long bladed knife. For the others I'll embed them into the ground work a bit more and add lots of smaller bits around the bottom.
-
I blocked out a building and got a quick coat of paint on it. There’s still a door to do and some wall gubbins. It’s castable and when the door and gubbins are done I’ll stick them in mould boxes :)
I probably won’t be doing anything fancy with the interior, probably just a textured floor (tread plate or some such). The gubbins you see are from my own collection and are just for these quick shots.

Yeah, just a simple one though. No need for anything extravagant.

All done and I'll be making the mould boxes today :)
The 'parts' are separate and will come with the building but will also be available separately.

Looks awesome, some of your bits would definitely work for 15mm! ;)

Thank again :)
Made a little Tibanna gas storage tank. The top is an old acrylic display dome and the bottom is a plastic cotton bud box with lots of bits added. The colour of the tank harks back to some of the pre-production art by Ralph McQuarrie. Doing a bigger version (more tanks) would be cool 8)

Thanks chaps 8)
I’ve got some more rock piles to cut up and another building on the go. The first building is in its mould box curing and I’ll be casting it this coming week :)
-
This is so incredibly STARWARS! You've hit the look not only by McQuarrie's colour!
-
Always inspirational to watch your builds!
-
Superb! Any tips on your approach to the lovely gubbins beneath the dome?
-
Cheers gents :)
Superb! Any tips on your approach to the lovely gubbins beneath the dome?
It's just a case of going through my bits boxes (of which there are many and sorted in degrees of size) and seeing what works. I'll have a rough idea for what to put in a particular area and then I'll spend time looking for bits that fit that idea. For this build it was mainly bits that could either hang down or stand up from flat surfaces. There's quite a bit of normal microstrip there as well.

Love job mate

Your ability to assemble a realistic-looking mechanical construction from odds and ends never ceases to amaze me 8) :-*

Glad to see that you have added 'Digglers Place' to the set-up.

Belated thanks chaps :)
I got a few more 1:1000 ships done for a bit of a photo shoot for a particular supplement that will be out soon...
The CR90's are the Bandai ones and the fighters are from Shapeways that I got years and years ago. They are no longer available (I didn't look that hard to be honest) so I've started to draw my own that I'll print up. The trouble with these imp ships is that there's no interior wing detail, so I left them blank.
I've got a fair few rebel ships but only the x-wings are painted for now. I had more of the normal ties but they're very fragile and I broke a good eight or nine of them drilling the mounting holes ::)
for a sense of scale, the Nebulon-B is 300mm long, the x-wings are around 13mm long and the fighter bases are 25mm square (although I need to do some bigger ones as they are a bit small).

Lovely work jim :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Amazed how good this looks! It’s pretty impressive to have these grasshoppers (I‘m referring to the X-Wings) fly next to real space ships.
-
Shiney! What rules are you going to use for them?
-
Wonderful stuff 8)
-
Cheers fellas :)
What rules are you going to use for them?
Both yours and FFoL. The fighters are based for both (although the bases need to be a bit bigger).
-
Hi Jim. I've not followed LAF closely for a long time, so I'm finding all these great threads I haven't seen before. This is brilliant work. I've so far avoided the Star Wars tractor beam but you don't make it easy. Must stay focussed... :D
-
Stay on target!
Or not :D
-
Amazing!! :-* :-* :-*
-
So many beautiful things in this thread James. Love the wee new ships!
-

Got some more fighters done, a rebel drop ship of sorts and had a play around with a black background :)
I'm fairly sure I've got some more fighter stashed away somewhere :?
The rebel drop ship was bought at the same time as the fighters and is from Shapeways (no idea if they're still available or not).

I have been 'flying' them around making pewpew noises lol

That is quite a collection. :-* :-* :-*
But its nothing without that star destroyer... ::) ;D

Shush you lol

Almost too cool for words. You should have them all dangling from bits of cotton from your bedroom ceiling, like we used to do with Airfix planes.
-

I can totally understand this.
The force is with this one.

*Ahem* pot/kettle.
Very swish though!
Also, the fighters are still available from National Cheese Emporium on Shapeways, both Rebel and Imperial.

Great idea....only 6’ long or thereabouts, James should have one knocked up by the end of the week ;)

1.6m but being the anal retard that I am it would have to be pretty much spot on and I really don’t have the time nor space lol
Bandai do an Imp Star at 1:5000 (or there abouts) which could be another scale to look at :?

I’ve got a couple of the 1/2256 Anigrand Star Destroyers to build one day....they will only be 29” long, but I might need to build an extension onto my games room first to find somewhere to store them when not in use. :D

Awesome. :o Name the rules you are going to use with your ships please (Apologies if I have missed them in the thread so far :?)

‘Starfighters’ from Wiley Games. There’s a fleet expansion to the rules in the back.
How are you liking the rules so far? I haven't been able to read through them fully, but the movement seems...lack luster compared to other things I'm used to (wings of war, crimson skies, x-wing, etc).
It feels like a simplified form of a hex based move system, and not necessarily in a good way, but that could just be an incorrect first impression.
-
It was myself and a couple of others that came up with the concept for Jaye and for the type of games we play it does the job well :)

I play tested them and didn't really have an issue with the movement rules. They're not as precise as something like xwing, but I don't think they're intended to be.

Not much happening here until I get some more buildings made and cast but I've finished off some containers in the mean time.

Knocked up a little inspection ladder and I’m thinking it could also be used for my Akira project.
I’ll probably do one that’s from the film as well but there’s a bit more work involved with that.

Excellent work on those troopers...my favourite movie baddies, and one of the most annoying to paint well.
Must confess I’d never heard of Yuzzums before...is it an actual Star Wars miniature, or a converted Pokemon*

Actually it’s a self portrait.

-
James; nice brushwork! 8) But I can't get over how far the WotC Yuzzem mini is removed from how I originally imagined them ::)
Akula: Yuzzems are from one of the first Star Wars novels; Splinter of the Mind's Eye. It takes place somewhere between ANH and ESB and possibly was a screenplay originally.
It details the exploits of Luke and Leia (pre-revelation, so a bit awkward in some scenes lol ) on an Imperial planet where they get into trouble with Imperial forces whilst undercover. Leia ends up in prison, and befriends two Yuzzem in the same cell, who then help her and Luke find the Splinter of the Mind's Eye (a Force enhancing crystal), while being chased by Darth Vader through the jungle.
Pretty cool book; I read it somewhere in the eighties and until Heir to the Empire, it was the only Extended Universe novel next to Han Solo at Star's End.
-
Thanks chaps :)
The stamp on the original base was for 2005 but I remember Yuzzum coming from Endor and not looking like the figure (short bodies, long legs and a different face). There's one singing in the re-mastered version of RotJ as well lol
Gotta love a messed up franchise :D
There's also the Lando Adventures trilogy that was re-printed recently under the 'Legends' umbrella.
Actually it’s a self portrait.
It’s James to a tee :D

I was taking some photos of some commission work and decided to get out my Star Wars scatter and do some photos of them as well. Unfortunately I don't have room at the moment to get them all together so I've done them in batches. They're pretty much all from my sci-fi range available from here (apart from the 'cube crates').

I’m going try and run a remote Star Wars game before Crimbo so I’m gradually sorting out some terrain for it.
These are storage tanks from my buildings range (miscasts) as the set up is probably going to be some sort of remote refinery or some such.

I have legs and I'm not afraid to use them lol
Going to draw the body up in cad and cut it from acrylic (it'll be more stable than sheet styrene) and then detail with styrene and bits as per every good Star Wars model should be :)
The legs will be beefed up as well as I've thought the AT-AT legs were a bit spindly for the body and hauling knackered ships around is more of a heavier duty job than blasting rebel scum >:D

Lower chassis and axles have been cut and assembled. They need filling and sanding before being able to add the plates and details.
The legs have had some work done to them and need a fair bit more. They’re double sided onto the chassis at the moment but they will be magnetised to allow for easier storage (something I have a problem with lol). I’ll be added some plates on the bottom of the feet after sticking some metal nuts in the to help lower the centre of gravity. I’ll probably have to do something similar for the crane but we’ll see when we come to it :)

Jeez!!! THAT'S HUGE! :o
I think you are going to need to have a removable crane so that folks can put a plant pot in it when it is not on the table!
:D

looks very promising I love the high standard you are setting with this.
Please post lots of build pics and scale shots wow!
I have a kids digger toy is ripe for conversion I am hoping to steal ideas I mean be inspired here :)

Thanks again :)
The legs and lower chassis have been detailed. A coat of primer tomorrow will show it off a bit better. The legs have been magnetised (the yellow is some scrap 3mm I had) but they still need the curved fenders sorting for the tops. The body needs a bit of a sand and I think I’ve got a half tube somewhere for the underneath.

Have you got a razor crest built to lift or is that still planed

Fantastic mate!! :o
Quick question....are the magnets in the legs strong enough to hold the full thing(plus crane) up? Would you not have been better with some sort of nut/bolt combo?
-
Absoluteyl fantastic idea!
I might steal the concept, since I still have an old WotC AT!

Cheers chaps :)

Nah, got plenty of other ships for it to haul around :)
Quick question....are the magnets in the legs strong enough to hold the full thing(plus crane) up? Would you not have been better with some sort of nut/bolt combo?
Combined with the ‘peg and hole’ thing going on with them, yes. I’ll probably have to do something different with the crane as it’ll be quite front heavy when loaded up.
I might steal the concept, since I still have an old WotC AT!
Steal away :) This is the Revell ‘kit’ and I’ll be using the main body as a cargo hauler.
-
Seeing this latest build has convinced me you are mad lol

Got it all primed and have started drawing the upper works. I’ll be a doing a simple interior as it seems a waste to seal it up given how it’s so big lol
I’ll be doing some panels in different colours and lots of weathering :)

I'm telling ya, you need an alternative top with plants so that you can place it inside the entrance to your house. Folks will go nuts when they see it! ;)
-
A great project :-*
-
That’s brilliant and a nice bit of background non-frontline/destructive tech that adds great depth. Maybe instead of plants I’d build a removable/magnetised alternate bowl top for it and put nibbles into it on my coffee table. Apologies if I’ve missed it but do you have a crane you’re going to adapt or are you going to scratch build?
Keep up the excellent progress,
BALM

And I appreciate the complete madness of the build. It is so nuts that it could be my own idea… lol

:D
Started work on the upper hull. Still plenty to do before even thinking about primer. Lots of interior detail and of course the cockpit windows. The cream cylinder is to represent the cranes rotating mechanism and is a mis-cast of SFA09 from the sci-fi section of the webshop. There will be other webshop bits to go in as well as piping and general clutter. There will be 'slab' about 10mm thick to go on this (same profile) before the crane housing goes on but I'll get all the upper chassis done first before moving onto the crane. The slab will be magnetised to allow access and the crane housing will also be removable as it would be good to potentially have it on a building.
Ignore the 1/2/3 blocks are they are supporting it due to the gubbins hanging down underneath :)
There'll also be a balcony on the back to add a bit of visual (and potential gaming) interest.

Did a quick bit of gubbins work for the interior. Still some of the middle ‘room’ to do and the cockpit. I think I might print something in resin for the cockpit controls ???
The frosted plate will be stuck on permanently and the 10mm ‘slab’ will be magnetised to it.
Not all the bits are stuck yet as it’ll be easier to paint them separately.

Interior looks great looking forward to some paint

Thanks :)
Gonna slow down a bit now as I’ve got other stuff to do.

That's looking tremendous!

That is bloody brilliant, mate.
Love it!
:-* :-*
Make sure that interior has a suitable door for Mama's character to be kicked out of, wont ya?
:D
-
Phenomenal build, both in terms of ambition and execution. All the panelling and detailing looks spot on, and that interior is excellent.
-
Cheers again chaps :)

But this is it for a while...
Crane cables have been drawn on of course but it's good to get an idea of balance.

Honestly, working you should on your force skills, young apprentice. Not need a crane to lift his vessel from under water a good Jedi would. Saving a lot of time and effort you could...

nice

Looking good, mate.
Very good.

But...where are you going to store the beast when not in use (or has the plant holder thing been agreed upon...?)

Cool stuff; I can totally see this working in the SW universe.
Just don't forget the counterweight ;)

Not as quick as I'd like as I've got other work on and a snotty cold that's knocked me back somewhat lol
There'll be another update this weekend though :)
Just don't forget the counterweight ;)
Yeah, the crane in the picture from the series just doesn't quite do it so I'll sort something out :)
-
We've found him the Twi Lek that sold Jim half an AT-AT - Ahr-Fa Dahli lol lol
-
Tell him he forgot to include the power plant lol

I reckon that James put the crane aside and started building a certain courtyard after watching the current episode yesterday..

Not quite although the temptation was strong :D

Only a little update as I messed up the top by cutting it the wrong size ::) It’s fixable but will take a while.
In the meantime the little balcony out the back is done and it also fits with the landing pad jetty that I started ages ago.
Unlike a lot of Star Wars gantries/balconies this has a guard rail lol

Got some paint and weathering done to the inside and balcony. It should make doing the top a bit easier.

I’ll do one if you really want :D

Rubbish ;D
There’s plenty, you’re just not looking hard enough lol

The interior is perfectly grimy and beaten up - very reminiscent of the dock-side setting. Do you plan any Quarren or Mon Calamari crew?
-
This thread is amazing!
I really love that you are building the crane from the Mandalorian.
The attention to detail with panels, pipes, gauges is fantastic and it looks even better painted :o
Thanks for sharing.
-
Looks great mate!
-
A real 'Pick me up'
Well done (as usual)
-
Truelly amazing, both building and painting wise :-* I will use it as inspiration for the interior of my Endor bunker (though it might be a bit cleaner as a military installation).
-
Brilliant, mate.
That looks so realistic I thought it was the khazi at the 100 Club!
8) 8)
-
Cheers again :)
Do you plan any Quarren or Mon Calamari crew?
Possibly. It's going to be a generic crane though as looking at the scenes it's in there are others there that are slightly different so it seems plausible that its a fairly standard practise. I've got some seated human crew kindly donated by Dwartist that will get put in this.
I will use it as inspiration for the interior of my Endor bunker (though it might be a bit cleaner as a military installation).
Look forward to seeing it 8)

So, a bit more wip :)
The sides and back have been clad (it’s a bit neater than the lower chassis), the middle plate has been made and painted but not stuck yet, the top plate has been cut but needs cladding etc. The cockpit has been detailed (I’m not looking forward to painting all those buttons lol ) and I’ve drawn up the cockpit chairs and control panels and they’ll hopefully be printed over the weekend.
Will start to work on the crane housing and boom next week :)

You are a great artist.

Surely an Imperial Gozanti Transport!

beautiful work thanks for posting the WIPs

Outstanding work 8)

Thanks again chaps :)
Surely an Imperial Gozanti Transport!
Nah, one of the ones from the most recent Mandalorian episode.
I'll do a Gozanti in a smaller scale eventually :D

You've got the ITT and the new Marauder, both could be nice!

Lambdas are more of a generic transport whereas this is is more of a dedicated drop ship.

Just a few more screen shots I’ll put up later if you want?

I got a bit distracted looking for a particular bit for the crane and stumbled on a Revell kit of Slave One. Always thought of doing it as a standard Firespray class but unfortunately there’s a substantial part of the hull missing...
(https://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/49/2619-101220182614-49610455.jpeg)
lol
So, not to be deterred I’m going to make it into a Firespray XL :D
It’s nicknamed ‘The Coffin’, hopefully for obvious reasons lol
(https://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/49/2619-101220182616-496151392.jpeg)
(https://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/49/2619-101220182618-496161471.jpeg)
(https://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/49/2619-101220182619-496172410.jpeg)
It’s apparently 1:160 which is close enough to fit with the 1:144 fighters I’ve got.
The grey stuff is filler and once it’s been sanded off I’ll scribe the hull plates and add some gubbins. The cockpit will be in the same place as the original but it’ll be angular instead.

Look over there, a squirrel!

Got some panels on (decided against scribe lines) and might get the cockpit in place tomorrow.

I’ll have to sort out a custom flying base for it. There’s a handy little slot in the back where the naff Revell one should go so that should do it.
-
Nice shape you have built :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Looking forward to the paint
-
Very nice diversion. :-* :-* :-*
-
All the panelling and details are on, it's now drying after it's first coats of primer :)
This is just a temporary base as I have sorted out it's proper one yet.

So, a bit more detailed fluff (and yes, I am making it up as I go along but that's part of the fun :D ).
Kuat Systems Engineering designed the normal Firespray as a patrol craft and prisoner transport but also came up with a few variations; few of which actually made into production. The Firespray XL was one that did get made; boasting more prisoner cells and a larger security force capacity (16 troopers) it was touted as a more independent craft for ousting smaller bandit/pirate gangs. Unfortunately due to the extra capacity, the reduction in speed and manoeuvrability was deemed too much of a sacrifice and so the project was scrapped.
-
Oh my, that is rather good!
-
Thanks :)
All done along with its base... Now back to the walker lol

I’d not realised it was so much a bigger ship than the X wing and Tie (even before the coffin addition)

Great work mate!

Skillz! Nice plasticard work; very neat, as always.

The fluff adds to what is already a very impressive model :)

It should actually be a bit bigger than it is to be in scale with the fighters but it’s close enough for me :)
Firespray XL ....love it lol
I was going to add that this was the fifth one built but that might have been taking it a bit far lol
That Mandalorian Imperial troop carrier is calling to me though lol

Very nice! The cockpit has a threatening narrow-eyed 'Mandalorian helmet' vibe to it.

Very nice James

Continuing nice work.

......and then I can start to paint all those buttons lol
You lucky, lucky bastard!
:D

Cockpit is painted, didn’t take as long as thought lol
The window frames are cut now as well and I’ll get those stuck on soon enough. I also printed out the consoles but they were a bit small so I’ll need to do them again.

Playing around with some lighting at the moment. Undecided whether to keep it red or just plain old white :?

No lighting at all in the cockpit! :o You wouldn't see a thing outside in darkness, particularly not in the distance where the hook is or at the bottom where the load has to be lifted.

Fantastic cockpit. :-* :-* :-* :-*
White lights look better.

Good work on the cockpit! Looking forward to see more. At this pace the crane will be ready for Christmas!

True, but James needs to build at least two more cranes in case the first crane breaks down, and then needs a lift ;)

But there's another crane design now, so you have to. :D

I’ll do a grab version that can be swapped with the normal crane ;D
Cockpit windows are done (I also weathered the sides and rear of the main hull). I think I’ve got some tinted 0.8mm acrylic somewhere but if not I’ll just use some 0.5mm clear.
White lights for the win :D

The silver foil in the top plate is sticky aluminium tape and it’s great for light blocking.
Next will be either to weather what’s been built or move onto the crane housing. Haven’t quite decided on the final shape for that yet though :?
-
Great work :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Amazing! So cool, especially the lighting! And the fact it is an AT-AT!

Truly magnificent work.
I am loving every part of this build.

White lights looks great. What a fantastic build.

Yeah, the lighting is epic. Great work mate!

That’s a cracking build James,talented fellow :)

I hope you keep the red primer colour of one of the foots!

stunning work I love what you've done with that cockpit wow!

Haven’t had much time to spend on this recently (lots of Christmas orders to sort out) but I’m plugging away, bit by bit.
The crane housing is roughed out and needs filling/sanding before I can start to plate the parts. I have a feeling it might be a bit small but it’ll probably look a bit bigger when there’s some paint on it.
It moves and has a little lug underneath so it can be removed completely.

It's still got to be stored and manageable on the table so I'd say some compromise with the size is totally expected.

Another little diversion from the crane ;D
It’s a Bandai Y-wing that’s been needed to be finished for a while now (it’s the one at the back with the mainly blue front).
Slowly working up to a full, if somewhat ramshackle, squadron.

The only fighter they don in 1:48 is the x-wing, the rest are in 1:72.
I should do some decent photos of the ships I've got as most of the piccies are a bit naff :?

Lovely work as always but crane! crane! crane! :)

No crane :(
Tank! :D
Just another little interlude (it's been sat base coated for months and needed some lol)
I have done some work on the crane but not enough to show at the moment.

I find your lack of crane disturbing.

Very nice :)
Did you airbrush the camo or just stipple very carefully?

Very nice. Bound for Endor perhaps?

Great work as usual. The blocky shape, in combination with the right paint job and context suddenly make it work completely in a SW environment.
...Blu-tack and a rattle cans :)
Interesting. In the pictures, the edges still look a bit blended. Do you then work on those by hand, feathering them into another?
-
Very nice. Bound for Endor perhaps?
Thanks :) Yes, eventually (or another forested planet when all the Endor options have been exhausted).
Interesting. In the pictures, the edges still look a bit blended. Do you then work on those by hand, feathering them into another?
Cheers :) The blu tack was still in a sausage when stuck on and the rattle can was generally sprayed from straight overhead of each surface giving the slightly diffused look at the edges. Some aren’t like that but most are.
-
I like that, mate, it works really well in a SW setting.
Just the right feel to the design.

Looking fab, darling.

Got the vast majority of the ‘top deck’ done for the walker. Gonna have to have a play around with the crane and see what works best. The actual crane housing is removable so I can spray the deck piece separately.
I’m also going to scratch build the pilot seat and console. Not too happy with the prints I’ve got.

It’s not too bad weight wise but it’ll need some weight adding to the back as that front leg doesn’t really support anything.

Silly boy, they’re on the top ;D
I bow to your greater knowledge of AT-AT physiology, bearing in mind that I have no idea how they feed their young.......
;D

Wow, missed this thread completely. This is great work! I can't wait to see it finished. Excuse me if you've written about this already. Is it going to have LED lighting (or does it already)?

Thanks :) it does/will have leds. I need to make some brackets to hold them and the batteries though.
With a bit of faffing I’ve used one of the original console prints and it seems to work ok. Seat was scratchbuilt and I’ve placed them on a separate floor plate section so it can be potentially used on other models. I might do a little bit more detail work on it.
The pilot/driver (kindly donated by Dwartist) has had a bit of conversion work to get his hands interacting with the console and he’s separate to ease painting. It’s an Anvil Industries ‘mix and match’ figure I believe.

Painted the console and the pilot and primed the top deck but that needs a few panels doing in different colours before it gets weathered.
To help give a sense of scale, its mounted on a 25mm square base.

Oh my giddy aunt! Marvellous.

Excellent, I love the pilot at the controls.

If I was to go to all of the trouble you go to (which is VERY unlikely)
and I got to the cockpit stage. I would have painted out the windows,
just so that I wouldn't have to do any more.
As always I am in awe of your work. Keep it up.
-
Those cockpit shots are so the dogs. :o
-
Thanks again :)
-
That is really nice Jim!

As everyone else has said, absolutely amazing work, looks marvellous.

favourite thread on the LAF :)

Many thanks chaps :)
The build is now finished and primed. Here's a few quick shots before I start on the final painting/weathering.
The crane cable is elastic as it worked better than thread/string and there's a magnet in the disc for picking up cargo (or even ships :D)

Not for a while as I'm going to have to move at some point soon :?
I will set it up on a couple of boards with some terrain though before they get packed away :)
-
That is a wonderful contraption and looking very, very good (as per usual ;) ).
Can't wait to see it with some appropriate scenery and miniatures around it!
I initially thought this was an original design you came up with. But that was before I had the opportunity to watch The Mandalorian season two, which is when I realized that that was where you got the inspiration from!
That was also one of my favourite episodes by the way; it so reminded me of the many Rogue and Wraith squadron missions... 8)

Superb!

There will be a few other parts that have a different colour to them. Just makes it look a bit more ramshackle :)

Why are you laughing at my request :D
I am sure two is just as easy as one lol
-
Simply WOW :o :-*
-
It’s been a while since I’ve done any Star Wars stuff but the new Visions short series provided a little bit of inspiration :)
It’ll probably just be a few buildings, enough for a settlement and I’ve gone for temperate bases as I’ve already got Imps and Rebs for this setting amd I could also potentially use them for a Ghibli style game as well.
Don’t worry, the AT-crane will be completed soon :)

I am. The only one that I’m not keen on is ‘The Twins’ which is a bit too over the top for me but the rest have been fine.
-

I thought the first one was okay, not world-beating, but okay. I thought the second one was complete dogshite, akin to the dodgy cheap Japanese animations from the 80's, like 'Cities of Gold' or 'Dogtanian'. It put me off watching any of the others if I'm honest.
-
Signature JimBibbly! Great looking huts, mate.
-
The setting for The Duel looked great and is ripe for a wargaming mashup, especially as Oshiro are a one stop shop for everything needed to recreate it.
I wasn't fussed about most of the episodes but I won't be knocking Disney for trying something a bit different and letting others reinterpret Star Wars within their own contexts. They've called it 'Visions' for a reason. I enjoyed it best watching in Japanese with the subtitles on.
If nothing else I can't wait to see James' Star Wars Samurai village!

The second one is The Twins. The others are worth a look though. As Elk said, it's good of them to try new things.
(I've got that bloody Cities of Gold theme tune running through my head now you swine lol )

Finished off a storehouse/processing unit for the ‘village’.
I was also thinking of doing some paddy fields but perhaps with some sort of control panel to link it to the buildings. Could be a bit restrictive though. Maybe if the control panels are on separate little bases that could next to normal paddies that would be be a better option :?
I was hoping to get these done quicker (got a few others planned out) as I’m sure I’ll get distracted when The Book of Fett comes out lol

There is a novel based on The Duel called Ronin. I'm almost halfway thru, and I may just give up on it.😞
It seems like the author has an idea in their head, but it just.isnt coming out on the page.
Too bad, as it was such a cool idea that I snapped the book up right away.
-
Getting a nice little village going.
Is that the old Citadel Skeleton shield bosses on the latest one?
Book of Fett looks like it will be very interesting.
-
It is good to see something new and not always the same style. Star wars is not only these desert buildings. Hope you show us more of this, Sir James.
-
Star wars is not only these desert buildings.
Good point! Not everything is the deserts of Tatooine or the redwoods of Endor. There are also swamps, frozen wastes and other environments possible.
How to build in swamps and ice would be interesting.

Nicely done! It is a joy to watch the progression of this project.

Makes sense that samurai figures could be so easily adapted. Just a simple bit of plastic rod I assume? It looks quite nice.

Actually she wasn't converted. I've got the model from LAF member Vodkafan back in the days. He might remember (regretfully I don't).

I do remember that figure Michi. I have never been able to find another one since, and can't remember her provenance. I remember you liked her because you thought she would paint up nice.

Yet another slight diversion ::)
This has been sat on the shelf for many months now but I finished it last night and took some shots.
I’m calling it an MC220 (because it’s 220mm long lol ). The body was a pla print in three parts and the guns and engines are resin prints. I’ve got it in mind to do another Mon Cal cruiser but have it as a sort of fleet carrier and include the hanger bays.
It was sprayed grey, the panels were painted on by hand and the panel lines were drawn on with a pencil and masking tape as a guide (they’re a bit more distinct in real life).

The blockade runner is from Bandai, the larger imperial ships are both scratchbuilt and the fighters are from Shapeways I believe.
-
Great work! I love it. Admittedly I have a soft spot for Mon Calamari.
-
Thanks, me too :)
-
When I think Mon Calamari, I think huge ships, stardestroyer size. But obviously, there would be smaller ships, with the same design language.
Great work painting it! 8)
I still need to get used to the large bridge at the front of the ship though...
-
That's a bit good!
-
Cheers :)
I still need to get used to the large bridge at the front of the ship though...
Yeah, the 'pod bridge' didn't quite fit with me at this sort of size ship. The windows are under 2mm though so it's not that big :)
-
That is lovely, mate.
8) 8)
Pencil and masking tape, eh?
I like that.
:)
-
Thanks :)
Yeah. The only trouble is having to back over the areas that have been handled. It’s almost like painting the Forth bridge lol

Jolly Nice build there James.

Cheers :)

Finally, finally got this finished lol
Rather pleased with how it turned out. Incredibly impractical for a game but who cares lol
The load is magnetised and I'll do some different ones. The AT-ST is the Bandai 1:48 kit.

Stunning work mate 8)
Now you need to make a couple more ;)
-
Very nice :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Wow! That turned out just ridiculously awesome! :-*
-
That’s wicked good, isn’t it?
-
Fantastic :-* :-* :-*
-
Just wow. Outstanding.
Incredibly impractical for a game but who cares lol
I did not realize that was a concern. lol
-
About time you finished it! ;)
Came out wonderfully. So much detail. You're crazy.
Rather pleased with how it turned out. Incredibly impractical for a game but who cares lol
Impractical? Almost certainly. But even if it just sits in the corner of the board, it will scream "Star Trek"... or whatever... :D
-
It’s practical in a game if you treat it as a moving terrain feature, rather than a vehicle. Design the scenario around hijacking the brute or defending it!
-
That is a fantastic piece :o
-
That is simply superb. Could be a stunning centerpiece to a game.
-
Many thanks chaps :)
Now you need to make a couple more ;)
They’re staying vanilla lol
I did not realize that was a concern. lol
Fair point lol
it will scream "Star Trek"... or whatever... :D
Heretic lol
Design the scenario around hijacking the brute or defending it!
I’ve got a couple of high buildings that it could be parked next too :)
-
I am very happy to see this one finally finished! It has a lot of that clonetrooper mobile home vibe from Rebels season 2. The flat top makes me wonder how it would look like with an even larger flat top for a mobile landing/launch platform or as carrier for TIEs or shuttles in rough terrain. Your removable roof should make it easy to be interchanged... :D
-
Stunningly brilliant work. Literally award winning quality mate.
-
Impractical? Not at all.
Other than already mentioned it could be used for a random/regular event in skirmish games as a moving piece of cover crossing the table crushing combatants who are unable to get out of its way and ignored the hazardous area warning signs.
In fact two of these would even be better :D
T.
-
You need another one so that you can play Conkers with the loads.
-
Thanks again, much appreciated :)
Your removable roof should make it easy to be interchanged... :D
You're a very bad man... lol
I'm afraid I won't be doing two (this one took long enough lol ) but I do have the body left over that I'll be making into an ore hauler :)

Just ... I mean, just ...

Well worth the wait

Thanks :)

Superb build. :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Now do the others... >:D
-
That is really impressive!

Got the styrene out this evening and started to build a personnel shuttle. Keeping it simple so it should hopefully get finished in a reasonable amount of time lol

Nice!
Also so many possible uses in a skirmish situation.

Always impressed by the ease with which you seem to greeble up these things.
I'm often cursed by analysis paralysis, overthinking each and every little greeble, etc.
Great progress at any rate: this is going to be another awesome build!

So very much this :(
The precision involved here also seems to elude me every time. I shall have to resign myself to modelling vicariously through this thread
-
+1 to what Daeothar and zemjw said.
I am constantly amazed by the precision of your work and the apparently effortless creativity.
-
That’s awesome 👏
-
"Your own...personal...Shuttle. Something to take you to space, some other place..."

Simply wow! I admire your attention to detail and your patience.

So glad to see the crane finished, it's fantastic on so many levels, the internal as well as external modelling, the lighting and all.
-
Thanks all :)

Three rectangles in a row and notches? Adam Savage would approve ;)

Don’t know who that is I’m afraid.
The build is complete apart from the mounting underneath for a flight stand. Should be able to get a coat of primer on it today. Probably going to paint it ‘Star Wars grey’ lol

What else, eh?
With severe weathering and some dark red or blue striping here and there I presume? ;)
-

That’s one of my favourite builds. Clever use of ‘something’ to make the cockpit canopy.

Brilliant!

Yes, red stripe I think :)

Many thanks for posting the link. Fascinating stuff,
now where can I get a 'Notching' tool ???
-
That’s a bit of alright. Lovely job.
-
Cheers :)
All done now. Quite happy with it but not entirely convinced about the cockpit glazing. I’m too scared to try something fancy lol but it matches the other ships I’ve got so it’ll do for now :)
Bandai 1:72 TIE fighter for scale.

Thanks gents :)

Pretty damn good 8)
-
Stunning :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Tidy work.
The panelling looks great, but I agree with you about the cickpit. I'd say that the problem with it is that the way light falls across that curved edge is slightly destroying tbe illusion of scale.
Whatever, it's a minor quibble on an otherwise fantastic little build.
(How can you not know who Adam Savage is, have you bever watched an episode of myth busters?)
-
Brilliant.

Great shuttle. :-* :-*

The body is from Crooked Dice and the head is from Pig Iron. The lightsaber has just been drilled into the hand. I couldn’t get any glow to look right with the phone editor though :?

He looks very similar to Valin Draco as described in the later points of the Dawn of Defiance campaign...and the earlier parts before WotC decided to modify the artwork in order to have a conversion guide for DMs to make a mini for him (That actually got some official rules for the minis game...one of the two minis that required a conversion to accurately have with the other being due to a mistake)
-
He sure looks like he‘ll deliver a great show! :D

Looking good!

Just sorting through groups for potential games. Plenty enough for different options and there’s enough now for a team of man eating teddy bears lol
Mainly for use on Endor but can also be used on other temperate worlds. It’s a big galaxy, who’s to say that there aren’t other planets with indigenous murder bears on them :D

I'll be doing a small ranger of smaller scale spaceships soon but here's a test of a simple freighter for that range. It works for 1:144 (my preferred ship scale) but it also would work for x-wing 'scale' (last photo).
It's made from the 28mm cargo hauler available in the webshop which was designed for this to happen :)

There is something awefully wrong! This is not what is shown in the Kenobi trailer! :o :o :o
You haven‘t built that black ship yet???

I was going to post the trailer but it would go downhill so quickly lol
I'll no doubt do something similar though. My Inquisitor will need transport >:D

It’ll only get worse lol

Well, Salute has been confirmed for next year and as always I'll be putting on a game. This time it's a Star Wars participation game using FFoL Galactic Heroes 2nd Ed.
So many different settings to choose from but for this I'm going for a Navarro look but with a bit less lava as the whole planet surely couldn't be covered, could it? lol
The table will be 8x4 and one half will be buildings such as the one below. The other half will be inside a mountain and will be made up of corridor sections that will also be released in the webshop.
Given that time flies I've finished off the first building base and made a start on a few others. I'll probably go for four or so with various other bits of tech and stuff :)
They will have simple interiors and plenty of nooks and crannies to hide in.
Pretty much everything is from the sci-fi sections of the webshop :)

Should have the details finished on the second base over the weekend.

Looking great!

Nice work. I'm looking forward to seeing this at Salute

Superb! Can’t wait to see the finished table!

Most impressive!
I have a lot of your Sci-fi scatter terrain and it's great for set dressing a table.
-
Wow, that's impressive! Gives me ideas...

Appreciated gents, thank you :)
There will be a few individual buildings dotted around joined together to the larger bases with loose walls.

Building base three done and dusted, just two more to go (for the time being). Some of the tops and roofs are swappable to give a slightly different look.

Looks great. ;D

8) Nice yard layout
-
Very cool. How many of these sections do you think you'll do?
So much more robust in resin!
-
Thanks fellas :)
Very cool. How many of these sections do you think you'll do?
So much more robust in resin!
One more base like this, another single building and some sort of large 'shed'/generator/building plus various bits of scatter.
-
Very nice James
-
Lovely combination of your buildings. :-* :-* :-*
-
Superb!
-
Love this newest compound. The duck boards are a fantastic little detail that really sell it as a well-used environment.
-
nice additions :-*
-
Belated thanks chaps, been a bit under the weather the past few days.

Still under the weather but I've been tinkering with the start of a Cloakshape fighter. Always fancied making one since I saw it in the Dark Empire comic books.
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/CloakShape_fighter/Legends (https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/CloakShape_fighter/Legends)
The first two photos are upside down as that's what I've been working on. It will probably have a slightly more angled top hull than normal as that's easier to make. Debating on whether to make a detailed cockpit or just have the usual painted out windows.

Looking great do far

Lovely details

Yes, another fighter, straight out of X-Wing Alliance this time 8)
Looking good so far!
-
Love. Lee. Can’t wait for you to post on Facebook and have prople ask you where you got it.
-
Oh yes! I've been thinking of CADing up a cloakshape for my 6mm scenery as well, its a very strong look without drawing on existing star wars designs too much.

Thanks chaps :)

Very nice fighter.
hope you are feeling better!

Only just discovered this thread - and only half way through it so far! Lots of cool inspiration.
But nothing I saw on the website for 15 mm Star Wars stuff - or did I miss it? Well on my way to a substantial 15 mm Star Wars setup. It all started with my wife wanting to take our niece to Disneyland. Then there were these affordable, painted mostly metal models of AT-AT and Millennium Falcon and, uh-oh.
Back later for the other half of the thread.
edit: And back this morning to finish the thread (well, the pictures more than the text). So much goodness. Alas, I had a dastardly thought on that gigantenormousspectacular AT-AT thing-a-ma-jig: 350 hours of build time, plus cost of the materials, in one game, seen by nut who offered a vast some of funds for it, temptation too strong and sold on, buyer played one game with it, too, and then it sits on shelf for twenty odd years, meantime you have to build another one to replace the sold one. Rinse and repeat.
Less dastardly, I did see someone comment on using some of your sci-fi bits for 15 mm so I guess I'll have to take another look around the store. Of course, there are other suppliers for stuff in 15 mm - too much stuff that there is a nasty dent in my wallet already.
-
hope you are feeling better!
On the mend but it’s taking a while ::)
I did get a few figures painted for this. Stargrave plastics, quite shallow detail but simple to paint which is a bonus.
They’re easy enough to be able to have a XR force and not worry too much about them.

No.

Finished off another six of these yesterday.

Nice! Looking forward to Xenos Rampant.

Thanks chaps :)

Awesome stuff, Jim!
-
Thanks :)
I’ve finished off the panelling for the main body of the Cloakshape fighter. The wings are drawn and I’ll hopefully get them cut out soon (doing them out of lasered acrylic as it’ll be stronger than styrene).
Still debating on how to do the cockpit.

That looks brilliant! I enjoy seeing the WIP pics as you add the surface details, kind of like seeing how the magic trick are done. I’m very much looking forward to seeing how this build progresses.
-
Nice.
Will you be doing the aftermarket tail too?
-
your scratchbuilding is outstanding :-*
-
Thanks chaps :)
Will you be doing the aftermarket tail too?
Yes, undecided whether to have a ‘spoiler’ type or two smaller ones (one on each side).
-
Top job!
-
The exposed panel is particularly effective 8)
-
Thanks chaps :)
Yes, undecided whether to have a ‘spoiler’ type or two smaller ones (one on each side).
I'm partial to the spoiler one to be honest, as it's the classic* look 8)
* Classic for me are the X-Wing, TIE-Fighter and X-Wing Alliance PC-games

Dark Empire comics for me, that’s where I first saw one 8)
Wings and spoiler have been cut out, stuck, filled and have now dried. Piccies when they’ve been panelled though.
-
Painted up another inquisitor (9th Brother) for the Navarro setting. Crooked Dice figure with a silly hat added.

Thanks :)

The hat is great! I like him.

Thanks :)
I’ve finally managed to finish off the wings for the Cloakshape fighter. I’m not doing the little ones on the ends though, just keeping with the big ones. I’ve also painted up an unarmed pilot that will do for scenario objectives etc.
There’s still the spoiler, leading edge details on the wings and the cockpit to do.

nice Orange!

Very cool detailing! That is going to be beautiful! The pilot/technician looks quite sharp, too.
-
Love the ship :-*
-
Lovely work on the ship ….difficult to choose a best bit. And the orange is lush.
-
Thanks chaps :)
No idea what colour to paint it though. Lots of choices online as well.
-
I'm not sure I would even consider anything beyond the kaki I always see it in XD
-
I like that ship!
A lot!

The new figures are great too.

Lovely work on the plasticard, which I can never believe you do so neatly. The pilot looks great too.

lol I’ve got a khaki spray that might suit actually
-
Got a few more building bases ready for Salute :)
The second floor in the first pictures is a custom piece (comms tower) but I think I'll be doing something similar for the catalogue as it helps to give some height to the table.
The landing pad is removable and can be used on it's own (I need to make a set of steps/ramp as it's around 30mm high) and the comms tower can be swapped over.

Fortunately the poorly armed Rebels now have a cache of laser rifles and other high tech gear stolen by another rebel cell. Things are looking up for the fledgling rebellion :D

The figures look great! I like the colours you chose for the rebels and the guys in the top pic (also rebels? Or local forces? Either way they look sharp).

Should have a little update tomorrow.

No update apart from a few more figures painted.
I rather liked the corporate security in Andor and have gone for something similar. Stargrave trooper bodies with Anvil heads. I’ll eventually wade through the Anvil site and see if they’ve got some unarmoured figures that would fit the bill.
They will be getting a transport as well but that’s after the Cloakshape fighter is done.

From my own recent incursion into Zona Anvil, there is one set of unarmoured male torsos and one set of unarmoured female torsos. The female ones show up with a search for "female torso", but the males (for me anyway) only showed up when someone here pointed me at the militia figures.
Unarmoured legs are easier to find.

Fine additions👍

Quite nice - they have that uniform look you would expect from a well-financed security force.

Well done

Bit of a New Year backlog but hoping to have them soon.

Great they look :)

Really not keen on WA. The kits I've got and seen in the flesh haven't impressed me (badly thought out joints, differing scales on the same sprue, far too many 'bits' when another body or two would've been better). I'm also not a fan of digital as I hate the faffing around lol
-
Those corporate lackies are really good, great colour scheme and nicely executed.
-
They look good, definitely a corporate vibe to them.

Nice!

Awesome stuff you've been doing lately!

Thanks again :)
Should get the Cloakshape fighter done this week all being well.

Now most of the catalogue compounds are complete it's time to move onto the custom builds for the Salute game :)
First off is a garage. There's still lots of details to add but the main carcass is complete. Part of the roof is swappable with other roof elements to allow for some different set ups. To follow will be a cantina (every Star Wars games needs one lol ) and a settlement gateway/entrance.

Started to add some detail to the garage interior, still some to sort out. There’s also a few scrap piles to do in separate bases but they will be repurposed from Mos Vegas.
Most of the bits are from the catalogue (either sci-fi or Urban Future).

It's Star Wars Saturday again and the garage is now complete :)
I've made a few scrap piles and also repurposed some from the old Mos Vegas project (that will no doubt see the light of day at some point in the future).
Part of the roof is swappable so the skyline can be changed around for different games.

The tables are on magnets because, apparently, there will be some Twilek pole dancers for it at some point ::) lol
-
I’m used to places like this. I bet Han knows where that one is. I’m going to ask him. :D
Of course I bring the pole dancers…
-
If I were a tabletop wargame miniature, I would gladly visit that place.
-
Wow! Stellar! 👏🏻
-
Fantastic! Best build yet. :-*
-
Very nicely done!!.
-
That's excellent. Is it yours or a commission? If it's a commission, lucky b@st@rd!
-
Thanks chaps :)

No need, we have an adequate supply lol

Commission for Mr Malamute although I have a feeling I'll be storing them lol

Great news, that means I might get a game on it!

That is just brilliant! Great combination of detail and playable space, too.

Wow! Is that sign a custom job or one of your offerings?

Thanks :)

Custom job for this custom building, happy to look at doing another though if that’s of interest?
-
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. :D
A great piece of work!
-
That cantina is great! Can you please 3d print it in 1700mm scale? I’d like to move in!
-
LOL that sign is hilariously great! Fantastic work!
Chris

Cheers chaps :)

8) That is brilliant 8)

That's fantastic work on your bar.

Thanks :)

Painted up a quick beast of burden for the Nevarro environs. I’ve got a plan for the howdah but it’ll be a little while till it’s done.
It’s an oop beastie from Blind Beggar Miniatures. The base is 120mm long so that should give you an idea on how big he (or she) is.

You have done a cracking job on him, mate.

I’ve painted up one of my command vehicles as a Corporation transport for my corpo troopers. The leader is new as well.

The mooks and their transport look seamless. Nice work!

I like that transport!
-
Cheers fellas :)

Great painting work, sir. But I was expecting something more blue, like their fancy uniforms... :D :D :D

I don't have a blue spray that I like lol
Every settlement needs an Imperial presence and here it is, an Imperial check point. I've got some beam emitters in a mould and they'll be used with translucent coloured acrylic rod.

I'l be making a similar one for the catalogue but that probably won't be until after Salute.
-
I've got some beam emitters in a mould and they'll be used with translucent coloured acrylic rod.
Sure. You've got to cut troopers in halves... lol
I really like the check point you built!
-
I love the imposing simplicity of it, great job.
-
That’s great, really useful for lots of scenarios :)
-
That really is very nice indeed. Proper modelling at it's best. :-*
-
Thanks chaps :)
Sure. You've got to cut troopers in halves... lol
What a cracking idea! I've got some spare bendies that would be perfect lol
-
That'll be a great catalogue addition!
-
Now that is a great imperial check point. :-* :-* :-*
Me wants one... :D
Yeahh, i know. I´m weak... :? lol
-
That’s cracking!
-
Lovely job 8)
-
Both the checkpoint and the speeder truck are ace. Well done.
-
Thanks again :)
-
No update apart from a few more figures painted.
I rather liked the corporate security in Andor and have gone for something similar. Stargrave trooper bodies with Anvil heads. I’ll eventually wade through the Anvil site and see if they’ve got some unarmoured figures that would fit the bill.
They will be getting a transport as well but that’s after the Cloakshape fighter is done.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/57/2619-130123001541-578631245.jpeg)
What blue did you use on these guys? The figures are outstanding!
-
This is from my painting notes.
“Corpos - Underclothes - Nightlords blue, Kantor blue, Thousand Sons blue. Armour - topped off with Foundry Storm blue light. Weapons etc black. Details GW orange (squig and trollslayer)”
Hope that helps :)

Yes, thanks so much! Again, love your stuff.

The transport and crew is beautiful. Amazing work

Thanks :)
Every settlement should have an imposing gateway and Saveen's landing is no different. The bridge is magnetised, partly for ease of transport but also because there are balconies that can be put in it place thus giving two buildings that can be used in separate parts of the town.

That is one solid looking gateway, very imposing. Great job sir.
-
Fantastic build. Looks spectacular :-*
-
That is very impressive! I like the idea of the magnetised bridge. Does the entire centre section come out then, as it looks pretty seamless?
Fantastic piece of terrain!
-
That's a suitably impressive building! Are the balconies done as well? I'm curious to see how those look on there.
Did you mean to recreate the 'Two Towers' in space, or was that purely coincidental? :D
Your settlement should be pretty sizeable by now!
-
Cheer fellas :)

It does come apart and the balconies need some details adding before I can take some piccies :)

Purely coincidental :D
I think it all fills a 6x4 now but we haven't had it all out yet (I need to make two more terrain boards for it ::) lol )
-
It’s hugely impressive.
Very much looking forward to the entire table laid out. 8)

What he said. It might even be worth making the trip to Salut for.

Impressive. Will you be posting some pics of the alternate config without the bridge?
-
Or a damaged bridge section, that'd be very cool?
-
Brilliant stuff, the way the buildings all work together in the same style is impressive.
-
Ruthless and Inventive
-
Impressive.
Most impressive.
Obi-Wan has taught you a lot...

Thank again chaps, appreciated :)
Will you be posting some pics of the alternate config without the bridge?
Yes, just need to sort out the junction boxes and cabling.
Or a damaged bridge section, that'd be very cool?
You’ll have to speak to the boss :D
-
Great gateway. :-* :-*
The town is growing fast. :)
-
That gateway is superb! Top job!
-
What a fantastic town. :-*
-
Wow that is impressive! :o
-
Cheers everyone :)

Few more bits added to this. Civvie speeder and a Corpo droid (acts as a Gamey pet in FFoL GH :D ).
The droid is a scratchbuild and the speeder is from Crooked Dice but there aren’t that many physical options out there for Star Warsy civvie vehicles. Looks like I’ll have to get my arse in gear and make some lol

Just do it and have done ;D

Oh ok then. Told you I was struggling… lol
-
A constant source of inspiration that man from Blighty... :D
I look forward to see what you'll expose at Tatooine Auto Salon in Mos Eisley! Bantha podo dung dumpsters and picnic speeders for moisture farmers I reckon. Or a classic suburban six-seater speeder for the family and their droids? A redneck pick-up for wannabe criminals or even ...wait: Weren't there mod scooters???
-
Excellent stuff, will look forward to vapourizing the droid. >:D
-
Nice work on that speeder, the transport and the corporate troops.
Seriously tempted by that transport (though I might substitute an Anvil Tesla Annihilator for the gun to match it's new owners).
-
Thanks chaps :)

Mainly civvie vehicles but I’ve got plans for a few more military ones as well.
All in good time :D

They’re nicely done (as usual: this is a great thread! :-*)

Trouble is, hes becoming an expert on being Gamey, oou wouldn't recognise him now. ;) lol

That’s a cool take on the speeder, and the droid is excellent!

Star Wars needs beasties and although there’s not much out there (apart from 3D prints) I’ve started to paint what I’ve got. Also made a load out for the large beast of burden. Kept it simple as it’s only for set dressing :)

Also finished off the balconies for the gate towers. Now they can be used separate and add some height and variety to Saveen’s Landing.

They are from Mike at Anyaral: World of Twilight.

Brill, thanks for linking that. Quite a few other useful beasties in there as well :)
Honestly can’t remember where I got them from though as I’ve never bought from there before lol

Lost Egg, thanks for the link. :)

The balconies look great, as does the beast of burden. Nice work.
-
Lovely work :-*

No worries chaps.

It could have been Salute, Mike's a regular there and his stall is always worth a look.
-
I think that beast's burden could use a little load-securing. That lot looks like it's all about to fall off! lol
-
It has integral micro repulsorlift technology that make constant adjustments to steady it and help increase load capacity.
-
A really neat model combo. Well done
-
That big beast is so cool!

Thanks :)

Very cool, I like the archaic approach in the "new" (shall I call it "disneymatic") SW universe with smoking engines on repulsor vehicles, tracked transports and beasts of burden. Although it doesn't make all sense, it's cool anyway.
I remember there was a Galoob plastic Ronto with Jawas as handlers...

Nicely done with the removable howdah on the beast, nicking that idea as it will save me painting too many more of them.

Clever, that.

Quick question if you don't mind James, on your cantina build, what do you use for the metal sheeting on the floor in the outdoor area? It is some Evergreen plastic sheeting or similar? ???

Spot on, thanks very much. :)

No bother :)
Finished off building the cloakshape fighter apart from the landing gear, which will be a separate element.
I'm afraid that after the latest Mando episode I'm going to have to paint it in pirate/extremist colours and have it covered in black and white stripes :D

Going to spoil it in a day or two and prime it lol

Never ceases to amaze me how you can delve into the bits box to produce something so believable :-*

Great looking ship. Out of interest, how much do you plan ahead when building something like this...or is it a case of winging it?
-
That’s looking grand!
-
Seems to be a Manta-lorian model... lol

Cheers :)
Out of interest, how much do you plan ahead when building something like this...or is it a case of winging it?
A lot of it is winging it. For this particular build, I printed out the old West End Games D6 plans at roughly 1:56 and made the basic shape from that, all the details, panelling, spoiler etc are winged.
Seems to be a Manta-lorian model... lol
Get your coat lol

That is a thing of beauty.

Gorgeous looking scratchbuild :-*

The fighter model is great!

Thanks again chaps :)
Got a few random bits done, mainly for set dressing and potential scenarios but the hut is a tester for a future rebel/New Republic airbase set on a relatively tropical world as I’ve got some Scarif terrain it can be used with.
The ‘wampa’ is from IA, the droids are WEG and the speeder is a scratchbuild. There are some hideous mould lines on the droids but they’re a sod to clean off and will be only be in the background so I haven’t bothered ;D

It is. I’m working on the master with the possibility of having it ready for Salute but there’s so much to do and so little time lol

Now that Hut is a most welcome. It comes handy for my project. :D
Maybe 2 or 3... :D

Is that new building to be called...Jabba? (I'll get my coat) lol

He's pulling your leg (I hope lol )
Was doing some photography yesterday for other projects and with the good weather it was a good opportunity to take a couple of quick photos of most of the builds done so far. There's still one or two to make and there were one or two left off. Hopefully it'll be busy enough to make a good game :)

Ditto this 8)

Looks right out of the Mandalorian or Boba Fett, superb work, as usual. 8) :-*
-
I am off to the travel agency to book a flight over there. At least the weather looks nicer than here on Hoth.
The bar looks promising from the outside too. I wonder what I will explore inside.
-
This is the way. 8)
-
That's just fantastic! Absolutely love it and all the attention to detail
-
Many thanks chaps :)
I’m just gutted I won’t be able to play on it lol

Got a couple of non-gaming friends over this afternoon. Was looking at the last photo, blown up to full screen. One of the guys looked over my shoulder and said,"Which film is that from, I don't recognise it?"
Can't think of higher praise. Well deserved too!
-
Spectawesome!!! :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Very impressive scene there. It really looks the biz!
-
That’s ace
-
Thanks again gents :)
-
Amazing Jim - should produce some wonderful games!
-
Incredible, what a dream to game on!
-
Really nice, and very useful for me! ;) ;) ;)
-
Great looking board, I'm sure you'll have no shortage of players.
-
Stunning work! 👏🏻

Should have the final game building done for this weekend.

Isn’t it traditional to still be painting terrain the night before Salute? :D
-
Not this year ;D lol
-
What a delightful thread of scum and villainy!
Sterling work Jimbo. It's probably just as well that you're not giving it a test game with Malamute or you'd have to litter the board with dead stormtroopers. lol
-
I wish I could get my Cheeto dust covered fingers all over it....
-
That looks really good
-
Any more eye candy photos of your table?
I’m out of episodes of the Mandalorian to watch :)
-
Just a few I’m afraid mate, didn’t get a chance on the day to take any. When the weather improves however, we’ll try and get a couple of larger games done in the garden :)
If anyone else has any of the game then please do post them here :)

Very impressive table & so many hand built masterpieces. :-*
-
The board looks absolutely spectacular! What a treat for the folks who got to play over it!
-
Outstanding build. Sorry that I did not go now. :(
-
We had a lot of fun running the game. The players I think also really enjoyed themselves, especially those playing the lightsabre wielding Jedi and Inquisitor who were delighted to know that when fired upon they had a chance to deflect the blast back towards the shooter. On several occasions they were successful and the shooter was killed outright which provided much entertainment for the other players lol
You never know we might convince James to take it back on the road later in the year to some other shows... ;)
-
Thanks chaps :)

Been away for a bit, but now that I'm back, I can comment on the pictures. The table looks absolutely marvelous; each of the terrain pieces looks great on its own, but when combined on a table like that, the result is absolutely stunning! 8)
The lack of booze and guns is surprising though. Did you check under the table?
-
Belated thanks chaps :)
We got a slightly smaller than Salute game in last week and here are a few of the photos form the game. It was a four player FFoL GH2, Imps and Corpos v Mandos and scum (let's face it, Mandos are scum as well ;D ).
It was a fun game made all the better for a complete Imp/Corpo victory and there wasn't even a Mando left alive :o lol

Over the summer I'm going to work on a large backdrop (possibly canvas) that's at least 6 foot long, maybe even longer, so the whole table can be shown with minimal editing :)

Another nice piece. It reminds me a little of the Tatooine street map on Battlefront (can't remember if it's 1 or 2?).

So good!
Love your terrain and brushwork (both on the minis and terrain)!

Very nicely done 8)

Adding another scale to the project with 1:350 ships. The fighters are from Shapeways, the first freighter is a converted Bandai Falcon and the second freighter is probably the proper Falcon :D
I’ve also got a resin kit of a Radient VII coming at some point and some replacement TIEs as the first batch sent were warped beyond repair (I’ll probably do them as exploded ones).
We’ll be starting a proper Star Wars campaign this coming week (using FFoL Galactic Heroes 2) and there will be a couple of scenarios involving ships :)

Nice colour choices on the big robot! The wookie is very characterful, but those two Rogue Stars fellas steal the show for me. :-* I'm still sad that that game faded into obscurity so quickly - at least things like Stargrave gave the models a new lease of life.
Do you reckon the little guy and the wookie shop at the same goggle stand?

--: Nevarro Sector Corporate Authority Report 242-674 :--
Being the report of Unit 17-C on routine patrol in Sector 5 of Nevarro City...
Game One - Routine Patrol
Standard unit of one officer and five troopers patrolling Sector 5. Reports of an active rebel cell were received early morning and Unit 17-C were sent out to investigate. Lt Lamore in command, assisted by Sgt Montt with Troopers Liss, Arkan, Hev and Boon in support.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723121904-594481299.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723121905-59449503.jpeg)
Lt Lamore split his unit to be able to cover more ground. The decision was made as the Lt wasn't expecting any trouble.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723121905-59450870.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723121905-594511462.jpeg)
Sgt Montt reported spotting some suspicious behaviour near the Imperial check point building but couldn't clearly make out what it was.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723121906-59452323.jpeg)
Not having a clear idea of the situation with Sgt Montt, Lt Lamore decided to proceed as planned into the market area of Sector 5 but suddenly came under fire from the reported rebel cell that had obviously been flushed out by Sgt Montt.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122025-594532374.jpeg)
Just seeing the one rebel, the Lt made the decision to take the fight to the enemy and try and capture some of the rebels in order to gain information about their operations. Unfortunately there were more rebels than were previously thought and a vicious firefight with some close quarters action ensued.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122025-594541348.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122026-59456919.jpeg)
Sgt Montt tried to give support from an elevated position but his field of fire was restricted and the rebels started to gain the upper hand.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122025-59455287.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122026-594571398.jpeg)
The rebels, seeing their chance of escape before vehicular support arrived, left the scene as quickly as they could. It was only the foresight and quick thinking of Trooper Hev that managed to salvage some good from the situation and captured one of the rebel females.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-290723122349-594581221.jpeg)
A deplorable situation where the local law enforcement officers of the Corporate Authority are ambushed seemingly out of nowhere with no provocation or reason. You can be rest assured that once the captive has been taken to holding and questioned there will be repercussions for these so called rebels. Messages of condolence will have to be sent to the families of those involved that will not be coming home.
Report ends....

--: Nevarro Sector Corporate Authority Report 242-694 :--
Being the report of Unit 17-C escorting a suspected terrorist through Sector 5 of Nevarro City...
Game Two - Prisoner Escort
Reduced unit of Lt Lamore, Sgt Montt and Trooper Hev transporting suspected terrorist to the spaceport for transfer to the Sector ISB office for further questioning. Trooper Boon KIA, Troopers Liss and Arkan transferred to Corporate Authority HQ for medical treatment.
Reduced unit 17-C requested a standard transport skiff for the transfer of terrorist suspect 'Neera Bhattu' to the spaceport as our methods of extracting information regarding the increased terrorist activity in the area had proved to be less than useful.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101853-595052191.jpeg)
Proceeding through Sector 5, Lt Lamore was aware of some suspicious activity from what appeared to be the local populace and ordered his troops be on the look out. The suspect was restrained and subdued in the skiff and could not cause any trouble.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101853-595061207.jpeg)
All too quickly, the suspicious activity turned into actual hostile action with various unknowns opening fire on the transport skiff and the officers contained there within. Fortunately, with Sgt Montt manning the skiff heavy blaster, one of the hostiles was put down quickly.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101854-59509509.jpeg)
With more fire coming in from what seemed to be all sides, Trooper Hev, in charge of piloting the skiff did a heroic job of managing to avoid the worst of the incoming fire but the enemy were far too numerous and it was all we could do to avoid being hit.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101854-595071669.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101854-59508644.jpeg)
Impossible to tell how many antagonists were out there Trooper Hev piloted towards an alleyway in the hope of getting out of the fire zone and into the relative safety of the spaceport.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-050823101930-595101455.jpeg)
But to no avail. The incoming fire increased dramatically and both LT Lamore and Sgt Montt were hit and down. The skiff also took several hits and careened out of control, crashing into the side of the alleyway allowing the suspect to get away.

These hit and run tactics of the terrorists are becoming a serious thorn in the side of decent law enforcement and we would recommend a heightening of awareness and patrols. Again, messages of condolence have been sent to the relevant parties.

Great stuff from the Imperial lapdog. Just the sort of lies we expect. Lovely game though!
-
Once again, lots of lame excused for Corpo failures lol
Great looking game though :-*
-
Not so much ‘decent law enforcement’ but ‘incompetent corpos’
-
Great looking game.
The corpos are really developing quite a reputation for themselves*
* Just not in a good way.

Great report, really enjoying this. :-*

Excellent.

The lack of respect for rightful authority is interesting o_o
lol

Another amazing looking game wow

Great job...now, to switch channels and read the rebel-aligned communication source to compare, and then ponder what the full story was...! lol
We are playing Galactic Heroes tomorrow evening at our regular gaming session. I succeeded in convincing one of our regulars who owns a metric ton of prepainted Star Wars figures to run a scenario with them. Thanks to you, Malamute, Akula, and the rest of the LAF...! :-*

There is only one true information source and it is that of the Corporate Authority :D

As I said on the other thread, lovely table and nicely painted figs, well done gents.
May I suggest that in future encounters, you both employ independent image capturers, so that the visual record might provide further subjective record, (and so that we get twice as much eye candy.) :)

Absolutely lovely scenery for which I imagine the Corporation can take credit and provide a measure of comfort in their dark dispair.

Well done Sir. It's all pretty stinning.

Thanks :)
Got a chance to finish off the 1:72 Falcon I bought a few weeks ago so it matches the 1:350 Bandai Falcon shown a few pages previously. It's called Orion's Eye and is a favourite of the rebels to try and sneak past Imperial patrols etc. It's about 310mm long and although the scale is small I think it'll fit ok.

The kit itself is a bit naff and would need a lot of work to make it into the Falcon but it'll certainly do for a bit of a table filler and scenario objective :)

Cant wait for its maiden voyage on Wednesday! ;D

Nice work on the Falcon James 👍

Really like the converted freighter, and the fact that you’ve got a ”space” scale model to go with it. Hoping to do something similar with my own project.
Cant wait for its maiden voyage on Wednesday! ;D
Can’t wait for another battle report ;)
-
yup really like seeing converted falcons. I always liked west end games take on these; that they were many and varied with their owners constantly mucking about with them nice job!
-
Lovely work. :-* :-*

Thanks chaps :)

WEG were my main inspiration after the films (this was before the prequels) and even though it's now 'Legends', for me it's all still applicable :)

Looks the part. Like the way you've done the same colour scheme on both.

Yeah, its very effective! really like it and it looks very different to the original model.

There was quite a bit of difference in the details between the two kits but I'm betting the Bandai one is the more accurate lol

A brilliant addition

--: Nevarro Sector Corporate Authority Report 242-712 :--
Being the report of Unit 17-C searching for the slicer known as Vikrett Jannakree...
Game Two - Slicer rendezvous
Report of notorious slicer, Vikrett Jannakree, have reached headquarters and reduced squad 17-C have been tasked with his retrieval and extraction from Nevarro City, Sector 5. His whereabouts have been narrowed down to a small area of Sector 5 and a house to house search will commence.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823201419-596762174.jpeg)
The search of sector five begins. Squad 17-C have been informed of potential terrorist activity in the area. Slicer Vikrett Jannakree may have information for said terrorists and must be found as soon as possible.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823201420-596962336.jpeg)

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823201908-596991403.jpeg)
Whilst conducting the lawful search of the immediate properties, Trooper Hev spotted a known suspected terrorist and preceded to approach him for questioning.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823201909-597001729.jpeg)
The suspect in question was not alone and a severe firefight broke out amongst the properties without warning or provocation.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823202655-597041491.jpeg)
Fortunately, Trooper Liss was successful in his search, even though he was not long out from treatment resulting from the last encounter with the terrorists. The slicer known as Vikrett Jannakree was willing to come along with Trooper Liss for questioning at the Corporate Authority headquarters.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823202655-597031807.jpeg)
Whilst Trooper Liss was taking the slicer into custody, the firefight was increasing with ferocity with several Corporate casualties.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-150823202656-59707380.jpeg)
With the terrorists being held at bay by the gallant defence of the Corporate troopers, Trooper Liss was able to escort the slicer from the battlezone and get him extracted to Corporate headquarters.

A successful mission but the actions of the terrorists must be dealt with in the harshest terms as they are upsetting the peaceful aura of Nevvaro City and the denizens therein.
Recommend to send a message to the Imperial Sector Garrison for reinforcements to help quell these terrorist incursions and stop their untoward actions before more innocents are harmed.

--: Nevarro Sector Corporate Authority Report 242-737 :--
Being the report of Unit 17-C in apprehending a certain droid with potential information...
Game Four - The droid we're looking for
After interviewing the slicer Vikrett Jannakree, information was gleaned about a droid that might have a unknown hyperspace route stored in it's databank that would allow the terrorist group to escape with impunity. Reduced squad 17-C have been tasked with it's retrieval and extraction back to Corporate Headquarters.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100051-598701860.jpeg)
Sector 5 of Nevarro City has been seemingly quite due to the increased terrorist activity in the area so locating the droid shouldn't have been too difficult.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100051-598722039.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100051-598731437.jpeg)
Several droids fitting the loose description given by Vikrett Jannakree were in the localised area but it was apparent that the terrorists were already in the area as Lt Lamore's assistant droid was shot out of nowhere.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100052-598742095.jpeg)
In another part of Sector 5 the terrorists had crawled out from under the skiff and had laid down a heavy suppressive fire causing several Corporate casualties.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100611-59877281.jpeg)
Even with the heavy firefight developing, reduced squad 17-C still endeavoured to find the droid at all costs but to no avail.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100611-59878781.jpeg)
The fire zone was intense and the decision was made by Lt Lamore to pull back after only being able to quickly search two droids in the vicinity.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-260823100612-598801931.jpeg)
One good piece on new is that it has been reported that the terrorist leader was shot and killed in the firefight but this has yet to be confirmed.

An unsuccessful mission but the actions of the terrorists must be dealt with in the harshest terms as they are upsetting the peaceful aura of Nevvaro City and the denizens therein.

I read about that, but as I understand it, it scales the whole game up, with single fighters becoming squadrons etc. Ideally, I'd have a rules set that could do individual fighters ánd capital ships in the same game.
Because I have a bunch of corvette-class ships for X-Wing that I would love to use as intended. Would FFoL Starfighters accomodate this?
-
It would as you can ‘build’ larger ships in starfighter scale. There are larger ship examples in the book but it’s a toolbox at the end of the day and you can pretty much do what you want. I certainly intend to lol
-
What an excellent ship. Wonderful details on that!
-
Seconded. Starfighters works really well with the X-Wing miniatures.
Agreed, I prefer Starfighters too.

James has dented my credit card this week already ... and now I've ordered FFOL Starfighters as well... happy everyone? lol

I’m sure your vendor of FFoL goodness is pleased!
I have the Starfighter rules but haven’t played yet. If they work like the stompy robot rules, they will give a fun game with lots of decisions to make about how to use your hand of cards to get the best out of your spacecraft while carrying out the mission.
I love the scratch built fighter, too, by the way - great painting and the level of surface detailing is beautiful!
-
Thanks again :)
Here we have the might of the Corporate Authority on Nevarro. Haven't got names for them all yet and I've still got a couple of riot troopers to do with shields and batons. There are two specialists on either side armed with sniper rifle, heavy blaster, missile launcher and a mazer (like a radiation gun that ignores cover).

Hmmm, don't think their track records demonstrates effectiveness lol
They sure look mighty pretty, but I would not describe them as "The might of the Corporate Authority" lol
-
Amazing as always oshiro!
-
Thanks chaps :)
Unfortunately, in recorded conflicts they have been rather abysmal. Unrecorded ones however (against the Mandos) they have been exemplary. Must be camera shy lol
-
They look very smart James, nice painting, and the cloak fighter is awesome, but you may want to check the dictionary definition of 'might' as a noun. Based on what we've seen so far, I'm not sure you have a complete grasp of the correct use of the word. ;)
-
lol
-
Very nice work James. It's a pity (for the Corpos) that after finally raising a decent force their brave(?) enemies have now left their planet
-
Not to worry, in the Empire uniforms of corporate security forces are tightly regulated. The cut and colours on the uniforms follow a standard mandatory pattern, but differ from planet to planet and by corporation by having 2mm wide colour coded piping along the cuffs. If you look really carefully at the close up shots you can just about make it out, but I doubt the piping is noticeable on 28mm figures at tabletop distances.

--: Nevarro Sector Corporate Authority Report 242-744 :--
Being the report of Unit 17-C in stopping the known terrorists from escaping justice...
Game Five - The terrorist escape
Word has reached Nevarro Corporate Authority Headquarters that the known terrorist 'Captain' Linta and his associates are going to try and make a break from the law and escape off planet before the Imperial blockade arrives, via Nevarro Sector 5 spaceport.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/59/2619-030923124418-599931325.jpeg)
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/60/2619-030923124418-60000863.jpeg)
Troopers Hev and Boon have been tasked with manning the check point and keeping the barrier in place until the suspected terrorists approach the spaceport. Lt Lamore with Troopers Liss and Arkan have successfully identified the route that the terrorists have taken and are coming up behind them in support of the check point.
(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/60/2619-030923124418-600012483.jpeg)
Unfortunately, the terrorists have come with blood on their minds and manged to gun down both Troopers Hev and Boon in the checkpoint without them being able to defend themselves.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/60/2619-030923124419-60003557.jpeg)
Seeing this from afar, Lt Lamore managed to stop several of the escaping terrorists with assistance from the Authority probe droid.

Trooper Liss, following the example of his Lt was able to bring down two of the terrorists that were in his sights.

(http://leadadventureforum.com/gallery/60/2619-030923124545-600072181.jpeg)
It would appear, however that 'Captain' Linta was able to escape and leave planetside in an unregistered older model YT-1170. Typical of the recent terrorist activity it was an 'each being for himself' situation and the so-called captain has left the remaining members of his group. Fortunate for the Corporate Authority as we now have several prisoners that can be questioned regarding their terrorist activities and the supposed location of ' Captain' Linta and the YT-1170.

Every Imperial Dog has it's day! Looks like the corpos finally did a bit of damage. Game looks great, as always. The arcade fronted building (scrap merchants?) is brilliant. It looks great, but also appears to be a very gameable piece. Loads of scatter stuff from your shop range too. I'm looking forward to getting my recently delivered stuff painted up, as it just adds so much to the spectacle.

Hang on, hang on! There are shenanigans afoot here.
Your account seems to contradict the rebel's spin. So which one of you two is being liberal with the truth? Hmmm?

An Imperial blockade is threatened? Perhaps the Empire will continue it's fight to even the score.
-
Belated thanks chaps :)
A starfighters game, which is part of the campaign, will be coming shortly but first, some Visions scatter terrain.
The campaign will be planet hopping and so to give us some options I've made a couple of scatter pieces. There's a few more in the works along with some other Nevarro terrain that I'll post soon.

Boom! lol

Excellent work - great to see you back on the thread :)

These are brilliant - I mean, the whole thread is (it's one of the inspriational 'Mega-Threads' around these parts that I've kept lurky tabs on for ages!) - but these also show me what I'm missing!
I'm sorting out a bunch of models and terrain to play 5 Parsecs From Home/ FFoL - Galactic Heroes (non denominational, maybe a mash-up of both), and whilst I have 'set pieces' and scatter either done or in the works, I don't have anything like this that shows the 'manufactured' setting elements in combination with the planetary environment - the two are always separate on the pieces I have (/planned).
I'd been feeling I was missing something, but I couldn't figure out what it was - now I know what I need to do, thanks for the inspiration!
-
No problem :)
We have a lot of loose scatter as well but it’s smaller things like cargo containers and such. Having the larger bits just helps to tie it into the surroundings a bit more and also adds extra cover options. We have a house rule wherein a figure anywhere on the scenery base gets a cover bonus of +1, of course if the figure is behind actual scenery then the cover modifier is altered to reflect how much it is hidden by.
-
The outside loo is wonderfully...Outer-Rim ??? I love it. :-*
-
Top job!

Cheers :)

Looks Amazing James, the trees and equipment look amazing. Especially the fern!

I always thought Visions was designed with you in mind :D 8)

They're ace. Like those alot. And a lovely paintjob too!

Thanks again :)

Not much going on here at the moment but I have managed to do some wasteland terrain for Nevarro.
Mainly miscasts from the catalogue and the beastie is from the Twilight range :)

Great use of miscasts and very nice execution.

Beautiful work as always. Proof that miscasts are well worth hanging on to :)

We shall return to Star Wars soon, a journey into the wastelands is assured. :D
They are tip top :)

Excellent! :-* :-*

Very useful bits, nicely painted too.

Many thanks chaps :)

Just caught up on the campaign games, they're very entertaining. I noticed you posted "The terrorist escape" as game 4, was this a deliberate ploy to confuse the Rebels o_o or just an over worked Empire Executive's honest mistake, if the later, I expect he's been sacked by now. :D
You still seem to be loosing the propaganda battle, :? but I suppose when the Rebels can lose 6 out of 7 fighters :o and the last survivor runs away but they are still able to spin that as a victory, you don't have much hope. :-[ Maybe you should think about employing Peter Mandelson as your Communications Director.
Everything else though is superb.
-
Lazy copy and paste I’m afraid lol
I think the Empire will always lose the propaganda war no matter how hard we try lol
-
Love your terrain, Jim!
It's always impressive and leaves me wanting to build more terrain.
-
More cool scatter pieces! :-*
I really gotta up my game and get some stuff finished for my table :o
-
Cheers :)
Hoping to get back into this properly soon.
-
I was gifted some forest beasties and got them painted up over the last few weeks. They will be no doubt appearing in a campaign near you soon :D

Those beasties are very good 8)

Black Remnant on the left... lovely sculpts... have managed to avoid getting any killer teddy bears so far :)
-
Brown Wampas! :o I didn't know such exist at all and in colour variation beyond Hoth.
-
Those big fellows are Bush Wampas. Similar ecological role to grizzly bears, and important for keeping Ewok populations in check.
-
Thanks :)

Yeah, didn't see why not as there's Jawas all over the galaxy :D

James those brown bears look to make short work of most things. They look fantastic.

Beautiful work! How did you get the ferns for the bases? ???

Thanks again :)

Scale model palm trees from The Model Tree Shop. I get a selection of scales (usually 1:250-1:1000) and then just pick and choose.

Lovely work all round.
Following with interest ( even though I'm trying my best not to get into
SW also ;)
Thanks for sharing.

Cool The brown looks great on the wampas.

Awesome work on those! The brown works exeptionally well on those Wampas.
And if Ewoks can fly TIE-Fighters, they might as well wield lightsabers! lol

Obviously I had to immediately check them out, but they're closed till January 7th, and they actually shut down the website to prove it! I didn't know people still did that... ::)

Finished off a little Imperial listening post for Nick's continuing commission (not much more to go now I think... o_o )
It's just the sensor dish on a base with a couple of little extra bits but should prove useful as an objective :)

Damned clever of James though... keep losing games to you, so you'll enjoy your games of Star Wars and commission even more of his terrain...
The man is a GENIUS... after all... no one could lose that many games unless they meant to... ;)
-
That's very cool. I'm having one of those!
-
Fantastic terrain.

Excellent mission objective, lovely pj too.

Thanks chaps :)

Gifted print from somewhere (can’t remember I’m afraid).

I've finished off the final large building for Nick's commission and it's a set of shops. The base footprint is around 320mm square
Plenty of details have been added but I didn't go overboard as we'll still need access for raids, destruction etc :D
The shops are 'Draba Tang's Emporium' and 'Ooloo Platts Droid Repair and Service'.
Corpo HQ next but that will be for me >:D

Loving it.
The signs are a very nice touch.
-
Regarding the signs, is there a font available for the letters, or did you make it up? I’m looking around for some fictional lettering to use on sci-fi projects.
-
Thanks chaps :)

It’s Aurabesh, downloaded from the internet and installed into my cad program.

Fantastic. :-* :-* :-*

It’s superb, the best one yet, it’s going to bring the town to life alongsise Rampa’s bar and grill :)

Outstanding! I’ll take one!
-
Thanks a lot for the information about the lettering, I’ll look it up!

Lovely job James - what are the ground floor walls made of MDF? High density foam?
Ooloo Platts Droid Repair and Service may have a more spacious showroom, but he still can't beat "Honest" Joe the Jawa's prices ...they are a steal ;)
-
Cheers again :)

What a superb piece of terrain! I always love the blend of playability, detail and story you manage to build into your terrain, but this one is another level!

That is amazing! I can't wait to see a game report and the Empire losing another game in its environs... lol
Work of art!! :o

I've made a start on a Corpo HQ building (as we need somewhere to hide lol). It'll take a while to complete as I've got a fair amount of other stuff on at the moment.
Rough sketch first and I think I'll be changing the top level to be mainly glass as that will be the control room with consoles and it would be good to see inside it.
I think I might do the internal walls at 5mm as it'll give more room and look less cramped (they're not stuck in yet). I might also bring them down 5-10mm or so as well and get the height by having 'false' ceilings in the upper floors.
Giving it some colour was suggested by Nick so I did a little sample and will be going with the style on the right as it won't look to out of place.
It will probably have a vehicle yard as well but that will be a separate element so it can potentially be used for something else.

Lovely Work Jimbo, I think it's going to be a great one!
I like the colour choice that you're going for, although there is something quite domineering about the HQ being built from off-world materials, making it stand out to the planet's inhabitants.
-
This will look great but then when doesn't your terrain? lol
-
Thanks :)

That’s a good idea but my thinking is that this has been repurposed from something else. I might do another building out of different materials. Don’t know what sort of building though ???
-
Looking forward to placing thermal detonators inside the Corpo's HQ ;) :D
-
You can try >:D
And will probably succeed lol
-
You should save yourself some time and just model a smoking crater. ;)
-
Tempting lol
-
Oof is that going to be 2 tone like old military complexes (imagine bond in goldeneye moscow KGB prison/archives) that will look cool, i like the yellow stripe. That's going to look cool if so. You could do 2 tone inside too to differentiate the different levels or departments.
But one little issue, theres only 3 floors James? I think Akula's may be bigger.. you may need the architects to do overtime to rectify that post haste. ;)
