My sale of Lord of the Rings models, has been going well, which has provided some additional funds towards getting some more models for my Star Wars project, first up today is a Ronto crewed by Jawas, to represent the one seen in one of the additional scenes on the entrance into Mos Eisley, and yes it does have a Jawa dangling off the side, I did remove the guns, as I didn't need them all armed.

I also got this Jawa, who's obviously been foraging well with how full his sack is ( Or stealing, he is a Jawa after all ! LOL)
Next up are some models that i found, that look very much like AT-RT drivers, and a welcome addition to my Imperial forces.
The sixth model that came in the set looked more like an officer, so I went for the black outfit.
Last today are some AT-DP pilots, if you watched Star Wars Rebels, these did multiple roles on Lothal, including riding around on bikes, so I might need to get some more of these.

Still need to find AT-AT pilots, and some TIE pilots, but may just convert the Inferno squad for these. That's all for this post, so until next time, stay safe and have fun !
Cheers Dave
Bravo, what a great worlk on all of them! Enjoyable stuff
ReplyDeleteThank you Suber, wanted to make sure they didn't spend too long sat on the desk, and become a burden ! LOL
DeleteThat Ronto with jawas is too good! Its like it leapt straight out of the movies! I'm glad to hear the Lord of the Rings sales are going well too. I think you're in the best location possible to sell them and make a profit. The player base is much larger and stronger in your country than it is here. That's mostly because your former employer barely supports the game here but I'm sure you could have guessed that!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeff, looking at it again in fresh light, I think it needs another glaze on the pale areas, but will leave it for a bit, and then reassess. As I never really got into the LOTR gaming, wasn't sure how well they would do, but hope when you do your clearout, you have equal success, even if GW doesn't support it much in your area.
DeleteReally great looking miniatures. The rondo looks like a store-bought toy (in a good way). 😁
ReplyDeleteThank you Stewart, don't worry I'll take the compliment ! LOL
DeleteSome nice stuff all round mate, but the Jawa's are my fave's, love the guy with the overloaded backpack, thieving little s*d! 😂😂
ReplyDeleteCheers Roger.
Thank you Roger, I do like the Imperials as they give me something different to Stormtroopers, but the Jawas are awesome, and even if it's bolted down, they'd find a way to take it ! LOL
DeleteNice Ronto, is that from Star Wars Miniatures or is it a 3D print?
ReplyDeleteThank you SD, all the models shown in this post are 3D prints, as I try to fill in gaps from the official models.
DeleteThe Ronto looks good, probably better than the CGI mess I remember from the movie! ;) I like the Imperials too. Those AT-RT drivers and Officer are really nice!
ReplyDeleteThank you Brian, it wasn't the best CGI at the time but it certainly wasn't the worse ! LOL I'm very thankful for finding these 3D prints, gives me more time to make the really obscure models ! LOL
DeleteWhat fabulous additions Dave, just love the Jawas and the Ronto.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael, wanted one of this Ronto for a while, so was very happy when I finally got my hands on one ! LOL Got a few more items in my watch list, for when I sell some more LOTR models.
DeleteThese all look great Dave! Love the Jawa's!
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, you can't go wrong with a Jawa can you ! LOL
DeleteAll very nice, Dave, but I particularly like the ronto and the Imperials! :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you John, so you like them all then ! LOL
DeleteYou're right there, but lets not forget that heavily laden jawa and then that's the lot! I think it was the AT-DP pilots I particularly liked among the imperials! :-)
DeleteAs you know of my fondness for Star Wars Rebels, they were a must have, and something very different with their colours to paint.
DeleteIncredible stuff, Dave. I'm not sure just what is 'official' Star Wars Legion figures and what are 3D prints (if any)..? But they all look superbly painted and should look awesome on the tabletop. Top stuff.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, they were fun to paint, and they are all 3D prints that I found on ebay, so not a single official Legion model in this post ! LOL
DeleteVery cool beast, love the Jawa on the rope, haha :D
ReplyDeleteThank you snapfit, was a fun model to do, and after the movie scene, would be rude not to have a dangling Jawa
DeleteVery cool - the Ronto is great, but I really love those Imperial Troopers!
ReplyDeleteThank you Azazael, the Ronto was a fun piece I wanted, but really wanted some Imperials to represent other sections, got my eye on some gunners as well ! LOL
