FORGOTTEN HEROES PART 5

 We're now in the last 9 days of forgotten-heroes-2021 and I'm hoping to complete all of Enfys Nest Cloud Riders, and with the 5 I have to show today, it should be doable as I only have 2 left to do.

First today is Gelan Yees, I don't have much information on this one other than his species is Sabat. He is a bit shorter than the rest but not as short as Weazel.

The model was made mostly with greenstuff, but used some plastic rod, plasticard and  paper clips on the weapons.

Painting I utilised the glaze as a filter again.

Next we have Chussido, who is a Rodian.

When I sculpted this one I left the helmet off for several reasons, first I got to sculpt a Rodian head, second I got to paint one that wasn't green, and thirdly I thought his Burlap sack hood was awful !.

Painting was fun on this especially the face.

Next is Pruno Jant, apparently he is human.

Sculpting was the same as the others.

Painting I used a lot of washes to get the dirty look of the reference picture.

Next up is Faddera Rabar, the only thing I know about this one is the species Dyplotid.

Sculpting was the same process as above, with a bit of plasticard to help make the vanes of his helmet.

Painting was simple enough, and used a couple of washes to give the overall grimy look.

Last up today, is Regineer Teed, which I have no information on.

No helmet on this one as I couldn't find a suitable reference picture, and in the movie, you see him for all of two seconds, and he's out of focus.

painting wise was pretty straight forward, although I did use some blue glaze for his face markings.

Here is a group shot so far, my next post will be on the Season of Scenery challenge, so you're all ready for the start of July, so until next time stay safe and have fun !

Cheers Dave

FORGOTTEN HEROES PART 4

 As I continue with my entries for this years forgotten-heroes-2021 I've continued to make some progress through the Windriders group. The above shot shows most of the group towards the end of the film Solo when they confront Han and the gang.

There is two that are not at this point, one will appear later in the post but the other shown above is killed earlier in the movie by Rio, as he is already dead, I won't be making this one, but thought it only fair to show Baroosh Pawk.

The first model I want to show is Tayshin Maxa, who does appear in the shot above.

The whole sculpt was done with greenstuff.

Painting wise I experimented with using a glaze as a filter to give the green tone on the trousers and tunic, was pleased with the results.

Next is Tayshin's sister Moda Maxa, who was the other character not in the top shot.

As you can see was made from greenstuff again, and kept with the martial art pose from the reference picture, very wax on wax off style ! LOL

Painting again I experimented with a green glaze as a filter on the trousers.

Next is Tubes, now I have also seen him called Two Tubes, and Benthic, so could be his whole name is Benthic Two Tubes, but that's just a guess.

Some plastic rod was used to help make the gun, the rest was done with greenstuff.

Painting involved getting lots of variance between similar colours, was happy with the end result.

Next is Waydurk, I don't have a lot of background on this one, except his species is Mimbanese.

Used a little plasticard on the weapon, the rest was done with greenstuff.

Painting was pretty straight forward on this one, just following the colours.

Last today is Silvasu Fi, which I have very little information on.

Some plastic rod, was used, as was a pistol from another model on this one.

Painting was pretty straight forward, but enjoyable.

Last today is a group shot of all the Windriders done so far, only leaving 7 more to do, will have to see how far I can get through the rest, before the end of the month. That's all for this post, so until next time stay safe and have fun !

Cheers Dave
