The Thin Beige Line
Specialists Assemble
Making use of the Contrast paints that I have been experimenting with through this project, I was able to work through these models pretty quickly.
After blocking in the bases I began with the prob droid who was painted Luftwaffe Uniform Blue. This was also used for the markings on the T-series and his midsection was painted German Green Grey. The worker droids ball joints were painted Skeleton Hoard (along with the B1 head he is brandishing), and the Medical Droid was given a coat of Wyldwood before the claws and instruments were picked out in Ironbreaker.
Following the same process I had used for the Sith Viper Droids, the probe droid was given a coat of Black Templar, followed by a light dry brush of the Luftwaffe blue.
The lighter areas of the T-Series were painted with Skeleton Hoard, to tie him in to the colour scheme of the B1’s and these were also washed with Soft Tone. A wash of Nuln Oil over the blue and grey areas, followed by a light dry bush of the original colours and he was done!
The remaining white areas of the worker droid were painted all over with Apothecary White and his eye lens picked out in Black Templar. Soft Tone was used on the beige areas, aim line with the B1’s earlier process.
The Medical droid was given an all over wash of Agrax before the silver elements were highlighted with Runefang Steal. I used the Apothecary White on the dangling leads and a few washes of Soft Tone over the medical vials to represent the fluids inside!
