More white for the white god! *

I especially lke the sergeant conversion. How did you do the orange shoulderpad? Was it sculpted or made with plasticard?

Anyways; they're looking really good! And the skiffs fit them like a glove.

Almost as if someone designed them that way  ;D

Managed to finish the next settlement board.

Bit more height on this one - a couple of the beautiful Oshiro buildings plus some additions, plus the usual mix of scatter from Oshiro, Crooked Dice, Fogou, Ainsty etc. Have followed the same principle as the first two boards… designed to have short cuts, but also potential choke points as well.





Steps are from Ainsty





The “sun screen” is from a Shatterpoint gantry kit




A good place for a secret meeting…






…or possibly an ambush





“Long live the empire”





“Han shot first”





Overhead shot

That looks excellent. You've really captured the feel of something like Andor.

Another brilliant settlement terrain block - how many of these do you have now?

And if it's 4+, can we persuade you to post a few pics of them together, in different layouts?  Just for us to nerd out over?  :D

You’ve definitely got the right balance between the buildings simple, practical construction style and just enough high tech/Sci-fi additions (makes it shout Star Wars, for me).
