Star Wars Legion. BigGrim's Ever-Growing Separatist Army!

The Pop Shop, our local hobby store ran a small tournament to keep interest going, called “Never Tell Me the Odds”.  I was amongst the first to sign up and on the run-up, completed my range tools. These were painted Uniform Grey Primer by Army Painter. Ink washed with Nuln Oil then drybrushed with Mechanicus Standard Grey followed by Grey Seer. The shallow area with the movement pips were painted Pro Acryl Coal Black, the pips themselves were painted Pro Acryl Bold Titanium White followed by a coat of Blood Angels Contrast Red.

I also finished the T1 Tactical Droid. Bone, then Agrax, and bone again, same as the B1 Droids. This time I added coloured markings using Ultramarines Blue Contrast. Then Black Templar Contrast was used for the blaster, followed by my standard basing thus far.

The Viper Probe Droid was done in silver in the same manner as my B2s and Dwarf Spiders but with the shell painted with Black Templar Contrast and the optics with Blood Angel Red Contrast.

I also painted the mighty Count Dooku! From a base of Uniform Grey (Army Painter), I drybrushed Dooku with Grey Seer (GW).From here, his tunic, breeches and boots were painted Black Templar (GW). His belt was painted Snakebite Leather (GW), the inner lining of his cape was with Nazdreg Yellow (GW) and the outer side of the cloak was with Aggaros Dunes (GW). Hair was Apothecary White, with a gentle highlight of Pro Acryl Bold Titanium White. Skin was Darkoath Flesh followed by a highlight of one part Bugman’s Glow to 2 of Pro Acryl Bold Titanium White. Finally, the lightsaber and cloak chain was Ironbreaker, a wash of Nuln and a highlight of Stormhost. The blade itself was two coats of Stormhost followed by Blood Angels Red Contrast and a coat of gloss varnish. He was then based and it was 04:00 in the morning. I was getting up in 4 hours. I put the army in my Really Useful magnetise box and got my tokens sorted in their sewing thread box. Then, to bed!
