Star Wars: Legion Painting VLOG – Part 6
February 15, 2018 by johnlyons
For Part Six we're wrapping up the Rebel infantry and then it's time to get into some vehicles!
I am really happy with how the Rebels look, especially with the strong tone giving a more brown dirty look than a dark tone.
I definitely call these AT-RVs a lot... I am very aware they are AT-RTs now...
I decided to go with a really heavy dry brushing combined with a wash and some solid Gun Metal painting to bring out the legs of the AT-RTs.
I went back in with some Chrome paint dry brushing to show up some chipping and wear and tear on the fronts of the AT-RTs especially.
Again I've kept the bases simple, clean and used a little highlighting to pick out their facings.

What weapon loadout are you most keen on for the AT-RTs?

Coming together really nicely John.
great speed painting job!
best simple painting scheme for the rebels I have see so far.
Always enjoy the Vlogs and this one is shaping out really nicely. If you could list up the paints also in your comments it would help just that little bit more to follow along. You’ve almost got me convinced that this can be done quickly.
A nice quick process but they look great which is the main job for the model’s.
I keep trying to figure out how I’ll do the bases of the vehicles when I get them. The facing markings kind of make that something that wouldn’t really work except for, perhaps, urban or industrial basing styles without creating things that would stick out for it or just unnatural looks.
A great way of getting these done so quickly and they look so good, perhaps the rebel squad leaders would look good with a camo pattern cloak to make the unit pop.
