Time for another painting update! Lots of stuff to show this time, I guess it has been building up for a bit. Basically a bunch more infinity stuff, adding into some sub armies for my main faction, Pan Oceania.
Also I grabbed a handful of Star Wars models, partly they are fun to paint, and partly maybe I can play some kind of Star Wars Skirmish thing with Stan at some point. Based on what was easily available I decided to make a kind of Firefly type Star Wars thing.
Star Wars:
Here are the Star Wars guys I have, just getting the small packs so I can avoid any big mixed boxes for now. So I have Lando as a captain type guy, a mechanic lady with a drone, a smuggler and a pair of saboteurs. Possibly could fit into a Rouge Stars type crew, not really sure haven't looked into it. Also I saw that they have announced a Star Wars miniatures game now so that could be a thing also. Not sure if the models are the same scale as the board game, but I assume so.
Aquila Guard:
First of the infinity guys is the Aquila, big guy with a machine gun and a multi-spectral visor.
Neo-Terra Bolts:
Some medium infantry guys, these are a bit expensive but they have some cool abilities and are cool models.
Bagh Mari:
The last 2 from the Bagh Mari set that I was working on last time. A guy with a boarding shot gun, and a lady with a sniper rifle. These guys are great on paper, but haven't had a ton of success with the as yet.
Scylla and Devabot:
Starting with a few mercenary attachments that the shock army can take. This lady is a pretty neat hacker, and a has a handy flamer thrower drone to help out. Looks like she has a bandit mask or something, but they are meant to be glasses, hard to paint stuff that small.
Nagas:
Another mercenary type unit, these guys are some sneaky infiltration and mine laying abilities. The lady has a sniper rifle which I don't like but nothing is perfect.
Highly Valued Target / Corporate Security Unit:
A lady with a briefcase, very similar to the other one whos briefcase is transformed as a gun, so can be used as a civilian or a security guard.
Auxila:
A pair of Auxila, these are pretty standard infantry but they each get a flame thrower bot to follow them around. These are really old models so they are a bit crappy compared to the newer ones, their guns are much bigger looking.
Tikiblang TAG:
Finally for today I have this big giant robot tank. He has some stealth abilities and mines so is a bit more cool then your standard big guy.. Should be fun to try out. Came as a pack with 2 different big guys so I guess I have to paint that at some point.

Hey Mike, the scale difference between Imperial Assault and Legion is "just enough to be noticeable": https://imgur.com/uvcXi4o
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing FFG wants to keep IA minis out of official Legion tournaments.
Ah so potentially annoying but maybe not that big of a deal. Thanks for the tip!
DeleteOh yeah, nice paint jobs on the Star Wars minis by the way.
ReplyDeleteThose look great Mike, I like the Firefly crew idea...nice touch. I've checked Legion out and apparently it looks like the figs are around 32-35mm...a bit of a diff...but if you're not ocd about it, it is doable...buggers...
