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

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

Great stuff; I especially like the hut and the speeder  8)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

That hut is a great idea, I really like it. Is this something that might find its way in to the shop?

A forest wampa too!

Salute is ever looming  lol

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
