"Buzzing the Tower" - Bandai Turbolaser and B-wing
« on: August 03, 2017, 08:38:36 PM »
Finished this dio last night. It's a mix of the Bandai Turbolaser and Death Star tile from the A-wing set and a B-wing from the Fantasy Flight Games line.

Most of this was focusing on the painting (and not stressing), and I didn't do much building at all.

Thanks for looking!










And here's a few shots of the black-basing technique.


Apply a black primer


Airbrush mottled squiggles to the surface in white


Airbrush a super-thin blending coat in the base color you want


Finally, add some highlights and/or brush-painted details.

Awesome work indeed and great idea on using the Fantasy Flight Games mini's they work perfectly with the tower.

Thanks man. I do love the FFG minis, even if I don't play the game.

Thanks. I hope I've inspired a few other people to try it, as it's a pretty simple process.
