After the release of a Rogue One Pao look alike by Brother Vinni, I had to add him to the Scarif squad!
Paodok’Draba’Takat, most commonly known as Pao, was a male Drabatan soldier who served as a commando in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War, and took part in the Battle of Scarif. Prior to the Battle of Scarif, Corporal Pao carried out a demolitions job on Foerost where he took out a communications tower similar to the one on Scarif. He was killed during the Battle of Scarif, along with the rest of Rogue One.more on my site: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/imperial_assault.html
Legion – Clone Wars
Soon after the arrival of Legion some back market models appeared, first scenery, then head swap conversion parts and finally full models.
I was pleased to see that Mel (see my X-Wing models) is also doing some very good Clone Trooper!So time to paint some!
From left to right, Phase II CT with DC-15S blaster carbine, ARC Trooper (maybe Rex?) and Phase II CT with DC-15A Blaster Rifle. So models are of good quality (the sculpts are in fact flawless), but some print lines appear and need to be carefully removed wherever possible. They are painted in the colours of Rex’s 501st Legion.The always welcome comparison picture:
From left to right, FFG Legion Trooper, Phase II CT with DC-15A Blaster Rifle ARC Trooper and FFG Heavy Trooper.As you can see the Mel CTs are more realistic proportioned, while FFG has the chunky “heroic” scale GW look. Both are nice models by themselves!
After the big CW annoucement I am even more hyped to paint some CW minis.
All Clones from Mel, Yoda is an old bendy WotC mini.Mel also started to produce Jedi to lead the clones! Obi Wan Kenobi is the 1st.
A very good mini with also very little printlines!
And the always productive Mel also offers Droids and the infamous General Grievous!
As you can see two of the 4 sabers are missing the brittle Shapeway material simply broke away and the saber itself was too tiny to replace the blade. Anyway I received a full refund and the model still looks cool IMO.The ARC Trooper are now pretty complete.
Four ARC Trooper of the 501st Legion. One with DC-15S Blaster, DC-15A Blaster Sniper Rifle, Z-6 Rotary Blaster Cannon and one Trooper aims with his RPS-6 Rocket Launcher.The good thing with all the Legion hype is that the aftermarket is also booming.
Several terrain kits popped up, one of my favourites are the Tatooine buildings in hard foam from Micro Art Studio.
Luke and two Trooper (Imperial Assault) are getting into it in front of the “Desert Habitat” – right out of Ep. IV!more pics on my site: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/legion.html
