Great stuff! I especially like the Leia mini paint job. My white garments with folds painting is nowhere near your level. Thanks for posting close-ups.

Actually they originated from Return of the Jedi. There were two in Jabba's palace on Tattooine: Oola (female dancer) and Bib Fortuna (male majordomus). I've seen a lot of cosplayers, but apart from the remastered ROTJ with an additional singer/dancer in Jabba's palace and those blue twins in the pod race pit in Phantom Menace there are only animated ones, I think.

They also feature in an episode of The Mandalorian (season1; chapter 6). There's a complete list of their appearances over here: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Twi'lek?so=search#Appearances

Oh yeah, I forgot about the boob-flashing dancer.

How could you?

In the Book of Boba trailers there looks to be a Twi'lek with a bright yellow hide.

Right, the first episode already showed another one, the lackey of Mos Espa's mayor.

It was January 2021 when I posted my first painted miniatures last year. Those were rebels for Star Wars Legion. The last miniatures in December 2021 were also of that kind and I decided that 2022 should commence just alike. Here is a squad of Rebel Commandos:

Thanks for your kind comments! I kept on painting SW Legion in the new year. Here is another squad of rebel troopers:

Niiice, I painted that squad myself a while back - they're a great squad to do aren't they? So simple with their black, blue and grey. Putting gloss varnish on the visors is a really good touch.

Great work - they really do look the business with your very distinctive painting style. I also used gloss varnish on the helmets for my dudes.

I should also say your photography is tip-top as well.

On the table they can be pretty effective - especially on smaller boards, e.g. 500 pt games, as they throw out a lot of firepower (albeit white dice) but over a shorter range. Always a bit of fun, these chaps but with white defensive dice they die like, well, Rebels.

Today I present my first miniatures for Star Wars Legion, which don't originate from George Lucas' classic movie trilogy, but from the prequel Rogue One where the Death Star plans were captured by the rebels. Here are two of the main acquisitors:
Captain Cassian Andor and the re-programmed imperial droid K2-SO.
