It’s Star Wars… you can’t not have thematic accessories… so my movement templates are getting R2’ed!

Having primed with Halfords grey primer, I basecoated with Vallejo Ghost Grey. This is my-go-to off-white colour that I always use to undercoat white.Having primed with Halfords grey primer, I basecoated with Vallejo Ghost Grey.

Once the grey has dried, follow up with a coat of Vallejo WhiteOnce the grey has dried, follow up with a coat of Vallejo White
Once the white layer was dry, I applied a coat of Vallejo Gloss Varnish. The reason for this is it makes it much easier to clean up in case of any mistakes as a gloss coat is wipe clean!

I then selected random section of the template painting the blue in a 70/30 mix of Vallejo Imperial Blue/Magic Blue, and the metallic panels with Vallejo Chrome.

Finally, I give the templates a wash of GW Gloss Nuln Oil to pick out the panel lines. I then picked out the movement numbers in Chrome and covered them with FW Angron Red clear, this can also be done using the GW Spiritstone Red.
