Firstly sorry still no pictures of the aurora, having trouble transferring them to the computer (Stupid new computer, not having the buttons in the right place ! LOL) but will hopefully get that sorted over the weekend, but I have finished the first squad of Imperial troops a scout unit, these models are standard construction straight out of the box, the only conversion was turning a tree stump to a rock under the squad leaders foot.
Above you can see the squad leader, sniper and explosive's scout, these are different poses to the original Fantasy Flight Games models. Below are the standard troopers of the unit.
These were all painted using the technique I showed a couple of posts ago, so now I have two Stormtrooper squads and another squad of scouts to finish, so they should be coming up soonish ! LOL
I have some health updates today as well, firstly I've had the stitches out from my operation, and the wound is healing well, and the control and strength is retuning in my hand. This week I also got results from a recent scan of my chest, the fluid build up is reducing, which is great news, and hopefully means I wont have to be drained again, and also the cancer has not thickened or expanded since I started my treatment, to me this is great news, perfect would have been a reduction, but maybe next scan ! LOL
That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !
Cheers Dave
Great looking Scouts!
ReplyDeleteThank you Michal, my only wish on these models would be be able to swap the weapons on the bodies for more variety ! LOL
DeleteScouts look the biz matey! Explosive Scout though should not be his name - he'll get a complex. Perhaps, Demolitions Scout would better fit? LOL
ReplyDeleteSuper happy to read about good health news! Onward and upward I say!
Thank you Dai, he is only a Imperial follower after all ! LOL I'll remember the better term next time.
DeleteAt this rate I should be around for a long time yet.
Really glad to hear about the positive developments with your health. That is always something to be celebrated! The scouts all look great as well. They might be my favorite stormtrooper configuration though I couldn't tell you why, maybe I just really like Return of the Jedi. The real question will be, can they hit anything when you use them, in-game!? :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeff, nice to be able to share positive news for a change ! LOL Being they are part of the Imperium I doubt they will hit much, but will have to wait and see ! LOL I like all the different armour that has appeared in the many different films and series, and is hard to pick a favourite.
DeleteLovely minis Dave, I do like the guy on the knees...all the best for your health, gooooooooooood news!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Phil, It's a great pose isn't it, feeling better than I have in years at the moment.
DeleteGreat news on your health front and nice looking scouts!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain, nice to report something other than doom and gloom ! LOL
DeleteReally glad to hear about the good news!! I also love the scouts, I'm just looking forward to those northen lights pics! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Suber, nice to share some good news for a change ! LOL Those will be posted up later today.
DeleteLovely looking scouts, I always enjoy your Star Wars minis.
ReplyDeleteAnd great news on the health front. May the Force be with you.
Thank you misterc, glad you like the Star Wars posts, as there is lots more coming ! LOL
DeleteIt has certainly made it easier for the family at the moment.
My fave type of Stormtrooper armour - and you've done a splendid job on them, Dave. Good news on the health front too.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, it is a cool suit of armour, and I do enjoy that they keep adding new types each movie and occasionally in a series. Should mean I'm around for a long time yet ! LOL
