This month I got some under city dwellers, to add to my legion models, what I liked about this set was they were interacting but not violently, maybe just a little seedy ! LOL I thought they would be perfect for background in Mos Eisley, or Mos Espa. I got this set of 3D printed models from Ebay, from bertd_70 these were very reasonably priced and worked out roughly at £1.50 each. The casts were great, and needed very little cleanup, they didn't come with bases, which wasn't a problem for me, but something to be aware of when getting 3D prints.
Below is a more detail shot of the three humans, and the astromech being used as a fire bin. I wanted to vary the skin tones, and the one sat on the floor seemed to have dreadlocks so I went for a darker skintone.
Next we have the aliens, in the set you get a Rodian, two Chagrian, two Gran, and a Twilek.
Gone for a variety of colors across them all so they didn't look like a bunch of Imperial recruits on shore leave ! LOL That's all for today, so until next time stay safe, and have fun !
Cheers Dave
Nicely done mate, some real character's there, looks like the back of the Star Wars academy bike sheds at break time! 🤣🤣
ReplyDeleteCheers Roger.
Thank you Roger, the human models would probably work for an apocalyptic setting as well, that would be a fair assessment ! LOL
DeleteAgree, great, full of character minis !
ReplyDeleteThank you Michal, need a lot more citizen type models, to fill the streets ! LOL
DeleteI love these Dave, what great characters. The chap warming his hands on the burning R2 unit is priceless.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael, when I saw the set I thought they all had such character and would add a lot to background characters, and all the little details in the set were perfect.
DeleteI like these very much matey. Great sculpts that will make your Mos Eisley scenes look all the more believable. I wonder what that poor little Twi'lek has to put up with being dressed so scantily out in such a rough town?!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dai, as soon as I saw this set, I thought they would add a lot of character to any scene. As for the poor lady in the rough area, her shorts are wider than some so has a bit more coverage, and a lot more than the dancing girls set I saw on Etsy ! LOL She could be a girlfriend of one of them so has some protection ! LOL
DeleteThose are excellent additions to your collection, Dave, and very nicely painted too. I must confess to liking the Astro-Mech turned bin-fire as my favourite. But they're all great.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, it is a great little set with lots of character, and yes a very different use for an astromech ! LOL
DeleteThese look great, Dave. A very seedy looking collection indeed! Your seller has a nice selection as well. There's really only two options on eBay in AU, aside from going international or resin printing myself.
ReplyDeleteThank you Azazael, this seller is relatively new, and is constantly adding more content, there are another 5 sellers that I buy from so the scope is endless ! LOL That's not many at all, we must have at least 30 different options currently, and it fluctuates up and down over the year, some are only there for a short time. What is it like on Etsy down there ?
DeleteNicely varied dodgey characters!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain, indeed they don't look very trustworthy ! LOL
