You can almost hear Steppenwookie's 'Born to be Wild'  playing in the background.

Apologies for missing these replies - but thanks :)

I’ve now completed 11 Wookies, which if my uninformed expectations are correct, will give me 2 units of 5 plus a mobile gun platform for Xenos Rampant. All are WotC ‘bendies’.

Six of these minis are repaints, as their prior treatment had left them sticky to the touch, due I think to the water based varnish I’d used. I scrubbed that off, touched up the paint, varnished with solvent-based gloss Humbrol, then top-coated with solvent-based W&N Pro Matte, which seems to have done the trick.

Wookie on a BARC Speeder:



Team One:



Team Two:



The force so far:



I do have another 6 to finish, a third team of 5 and a ‘Jedi’ Wookie.

NB: These 11 take  me to 119 figures finished so far this year

Great to see the Wookies getting some love. That's interesting about the varnish leaving the repaints sticky.
