Star Wars Legion. BigGrim's Ever-Growing Separatist Army!
Persuader-Class Droid Tanks
Been a while since I’ve updated this. I have done a few more character Droids (Mostly Tactical Droids.) but I was hit by the bug yesterday and got to work on my Persuader Tank Droids. Paints are GW unless specifically noted otherwise.
Built into subassemblies of main body, eyes, weapons and side track units, I masked off the points of contact for the above and primed everything Army Painter Platemail. After given a heavy wash of Nuln Oil, they were drybrushed with Leadbeltcher, then Stormhost Silver.
I mixed a new batch of the red I’ve used for the Spider Droids, STAPs and Droidekas (2 Contrast Medium to 1 Flesh Tearer Red). Two coats of this were carefully applied to the main hull, eye covers and track units.
Talessar Blue was painted into the slitted eyes, with the cover? white of the eye? painted Pro Acryl Coal Black. Finally, the eyes were given a coat of ‘Ardcoat for that glossy shine. Talessar Blue was also painted into what look like power coils in the middle of the main body and on a piece of the guns I thought could be glowing with power.
Once everything was dry, I unmasked and glued the units together. They were then mounted on the base and once dry, I covered the base with my Vallejo Model Color Stone Textures – Brown Earth. With that, I left it to dry overnight Tonight, I will give it a heavy wash of Agrax Earth Shade (GW) and then, once dry, drybrush with Rakarth Flesh (GW). Finally, I will apply some Army Painter tufts. (I don’t remember the type I’ve been using. Will double check.
Hope you enjoy!
