Title: Star Wars Miniatures Battles - Update Jabba the Hutt
Post by: psullie on October 23, 2016, 06:20:31 PM
After a spell painting fantasy figures I'm back painting sci-fi. Following on from an earlier project http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=78303.msg958305#msg958305 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=78303.msg958305#msg958305) painting up 25mm GZG units as proxies for Star Wars Miniatures Battles it is time for the real deal - Grenadier's own Star Wars minis (plus all the cool kids have a Star Wars project  ;) )

Sculpted by Julie Guthrie and Bob Charrette these are classic old school 25mm minis - more pics on the blog: http://www.posullivandesign.com

thanks for looking!

Excellent work.  Those old 25's have really held up quite well.

thanks for the compliments guys,

Well the Stormtroopers needed some action so I dug out my copy of Star Wars Miniatures Battles (SWMB). I forgot how much I enjoyed playing this back when it first came out and I’m delighted that it holds up 25 years later. Had a great game here are a few pics...
more info on the blog

cheers

Cheers Huesped, I have a bunch of Rebel Troopers on the painting desk but it will be awhile before they're table ready, in the meantime these GZG 25mm make ideal alternatives

indeed!!i have several GZG for local militias, corporate sector forces and the like. good choice! ;)

Title: Re: Star Wars Miniatures Battles - Update Imperial Zero-G Assault Troopers
Post by: psullie on May 07, 2017, 09:24:20 PM
Space troopers! a greater challenge to paint than regular Stormtroopers, went for off-white with pale grey shadows hoping that they'll 'look' right... happy with the result.

Title: Re: Star Wars Miniatures Battles - Update Imperial Zero-G Assault Troopers
Post by: Michka on May 07, 2017, 09:51:10 PM
Zero-G Troopers! Awesome! These turned out really great. It's always nice to see some WEG love around here.

Post by: Commander Vyper on May 10, 2017, 12:40:07 PM
Very nice. Just not a fan of solid bases on slottas. Cut em off like me! ;)
Title: Re: Star Wars Miniatures Battles - Update Imperial Zero-G Assault Troopers
Post by: psullie on May 10, 2017, 01:28:00 PM
Cheers guys

Com. Vyper these guys didn't come with bases or tabs - I added the circular base to match the rest of the range and my own basing preference for pre-slotta sci-fi

High speed action....

Next lot of Imperials (and last for now) is a lance speeder bikes! PITA to assemble and dodgy design choices on the riders aside these are fun and can't wait to get them on table..

Cheers for looking - next up Scum and Villainy

Post by: orc on May 24, 2017, 10:22:00 AM
Very Cool psullie!! I'm waiting anxious for your next work on the Scum and villany..... :P,

The speeder bikes are fantastic! Really nice work, and they've come out with the right attitude.
best regards

cheers guys

First up of my Scum & Villainy - Orcs in Spaaaaaaace!

Gamorrean guards, proof that someone at Lucasfilm was a warhammer fan! Fun to paint and scratched that itch to paint some fantasy figures.

Great paint job on these guys. And most impressive, they still have the ax head intact! Those things broke off so often it's amazing to find more then one in good shape.

hello all

slow progress on my Scum faction, but progress nonetheless. Boushh, Zardra & Boba Fett
More pics as usual on the blog

cheers!

If you want a relatively easy "custom" mini that you could use, get one of the ball tipped hat pins and attach it to a base after clipping the tip and glue the pin end down. With a tiny bit of paint, you have a workable Remote...

The magnificent slime-ball Jabba the Hutt. I think they could have done so much more with this sculpt when you consider how awesome some of the other models were. Fun to paint, I just need a sail barge to haul him about  :D

cheers and thanks for looking, more pics on the blog.
