These have been sat on the painting for a while so it was good to finally get them completed. So all left to finish the army is Ashoka, Sabine and Clan Wren. Hope to get some progress shots this week.

I have a new neoprene mat on order from DeepCut Studios so looking forward to getting some battle shots and unboxings.
But after finding Crabbok's YouTube channel (Check out his channel great videos of what is fresh and new in Star Wars Gaming) when looking up Star Wars Legion I found his love of Armada and this got me to hunt out my crate that I had stored everything in and see what I had in my collection.
Having a mix of Imperials and Rebels but nothing really that would allow any variations in my fleet builds and sorely lacking upgrade cards I made out my shopping list for the Imperials to start off with:
SSD: I mean it is huge but Gor Dam I want that model for my shelf lol
Chimera: This is a Star Destroyer variant that brings Thrawn as a commander and some other useful ship cards
Gorzanti Imperial Assault Carriers
Interdictor
Imperial Light Cruiser
Imperial Star Destroyer: I have one but jeez love a big space triangle and there is no way to replicate that famous scene from Empire without 3 of them
Imperial Light Carrier
Onager Class Star Destroyer
Imperial Squadron packs 1 and 2: I have both of these already but I reckon that more Squadrons cannot hurt. Plus I do love a Tie Bomber.
I think one of the issues that I am going to have is how many of each ship variant do I want?
Since the release there has been some price rises and getting hold of some of the items is getting quiet hard. But hunting cap was put on a I started scouring the internet.
I found on good old Amazon these two items well under RRP so even though the Pelta Frigate was not on the list it was to good an opportunity not to pick up, for maybe a future fleet. The Interdictor was also a great price so with these two new ships under my belt the shopping has started
I will be doing an unboxing of my purchases in the near future so you can see the models and what cards etc you get, but now time to pack for a much needed holiday. We are off to Tunisia and hopefully if my leg is feeling a lot better we will be able to go on a planned Star Wars tour as some much of the films and backdrops have locations not far from where we are staying.
May the Force be with you.
Feeling pretty low and mostly bed ridden, I decided to cheer myself up and bought myself a Star Wars Lego set. I was thinking of the Falcon but at £750 it was a bit steep.
Now I had not made any Lego for a very long time, so was pleasantly surprised at the numbered bagging to make the build easier.
I built the model over a couple of days and it is a fairly big kit but easy to build only a couple of areas where I scratched my head a bit.
Finally with some clear weather and not on husband duties I have got round to base coating the ATDP.
Started with a black undercoat and then Mechanicus Grey over the top.
Will now start on lightening up the base coat before I can start weathering.
I am following Sorastros painting guides as I find them a very good starting point for a lot of my projects.
Welcome to part 1 of my All Terrain Defense Pod project. This walker has long featured in the graphic novels, books and cartoon series, but as yet AMG have yet to bring it to the table top. So I hunted around the interweb to find some 3D files. Now I have no idea and to be honest no willingness to learn how to 3D print at the current time, but a good friend of mine owns a 3D print business. So I popped him the files and hay presto like green magic I took ownership of my first ATDP.
If you are looking to have anything 3D printed look up:
If its your first order you get 10% off
So here is the ATDP assembled and ready for priming
As you can see she's bigWith a clone trooper for scale.
If the rain holds off this weekend I will get it primed and hopefully the first layers of paint.
