Star Wars Legion terrain build (SWL)
Sci-Fi Scatter: Hydroponics pods.
Some frontier world food sources for your Legion tablesI haven’ had a chance to work on the Imperial bunker for a while but I did knock out these little hydroponics pods to go on my Legion board. It’s a dusty, dry, rocky, planet and I figured they’d need some hydroponics units to produce and food.
-I stared with some papier mache circular boxes from the craft shop. I just the lid for one and the body for another. I grabbed some 50mm spare bases to delineate the growing area on top.
-I glued on a section of foam to hold plant stems and decorated the sides with widgets and panels to make it look like there were environmental support systems inside.
-I sprayed everything up in white to match other industrial pods on my board.
-Then the soil was painted up and a range of plants added to each one to represent different fruits, herbs or leafy veggies.
-I check to make sure the plants weren’t too tall for the Christmas baubles I was using for domes.
-The sides were dry brushed for highlights, weathered with a mix of rusty washes and sponge stippling.
-I also added a few random arubesh letters and paint patterns to break up the colours.
What level of cover is produce anyway?
These are nice little bits of scatter terrain.
These are amazing! I really like how you’ve chosen and arranged the plants, and the colours. Great way to add some colour and narrative to the table.
