Pete in Lincs Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 Sunday update time again. Stand by for pictures! 5...4...3...etc I got a bit of time on this yesterday so I did a bit of painting. Mostly detail stuff. I'd already done a very pale thin green wash to the buildings. This morning I added a streaky grey wash to them. I want an old, established, almost forgotten outpost look to it. I think I've got what I wanted. The power station. The Comms centre. Hopefully I've got a sort of mouldy look to it all The drone caught this shot on it's the way past. I've grubbied up the tarmac a bit too. A bit more height produced this shot of the tower. The orange ball was a bead. The yellow part in the dish was a tank drivewheel. The AT-AT got it's engine, undersides and legs painted this morning. Then I added some weathering. I've already corrected the front of the head. Last shot from the drone. The body and head of the AT-AT will be camouflaged but it's going to take a fair bit of masking. Hopefully I can make a start on that next weekend. Until then, many thanks for looking in. Keep the comments coming. Cheers for now, Pete 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter Rose Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Looks great Pete that base is looking very "star wars" especially with some paint on, looking forward to the camo but I dont envy the fiddly masking! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Monty Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Nice diorama with some very convincing grubby paint work. The design of the buildings is spot on for the Star Wars universe, definitely got that evil empire look about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voozet Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 It looks great. Nice kitbash. I judge it from a non-fan's point of view. Star Wars has never been on my top SF list, although there are quite a few visually great things there IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBaron Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Think you got them outpost colours about right Butch.

I was going to say that it reminded me of a place I used to deliver to in Croydon but the same thing I guess... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head in the clouds. Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Superb work Pete, to use the the county of Rutlands motto, 'Multum in Parvo', and you most certainly have. I think you have captured the feel of the films and the look of menace from the AT-AT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
