Shatterpoint: Ahsoka Tano squad

We had some Shatterpoint dark side, how about some light side.

Ahsoka Tano, Jedi No More

The color patterns on Ahsoka’s head and face are lightly inscribed into the sculpt, making it much easier to at least approximately paint it.

Bo-Katan Kryze

I chose the bare headed variant for Bo-Katan, to help distinguish her from the other Mandalorians in the squad.

The Clan Kryze Mandalorians follow the same pattern as the super commandos – one standing, one jumping.

Shatterpoint: Lord Maul Squad

I’d call myself a casual fan of Star Wars. I dig (most of) the movies. I’ve seen some of the related shows. But I love me some skirmish games, so let’s do it.

Lord Maul

Lord Maul seems to be more intact than the last time I saw him. I should probably watch Clone Wars sometime and maybe I’ll understand.

The starter set has too many Mandalorians in it. Each side has three models out of eight models (a Secondary plus a pair of Supporting) in Mandalorian armor. There are models from each unit type that are posed mid-jump.

Gar Saxon

So as sad as I am to lose Gar Saxon’s cool spiky helmet, I went with the bare head for the Secondaries. This should help them stand out from the Support on the tabletop.

Crisis Protocol: Quinjet

Crisis Protocol has a bunch of nicely themed terrain sets. Some of them are a little bit big for playability, but do a lot of work to sell the setting. The Quinjet is one such example.

My buddy very generously gave me this set for Christmas. I quickly got it painted for play, though it’s taken a while to get it posted here.

Quinjet (top)

The main color is a Turbo Dork colorshift, which helps to give large flat surfaces some variation. I also drybrushed on the edges to bring out the shape.

I wish I had the foresight to weight down the nose. There is a lot more model behind the landing gear than in front of it. The bit of ground keeps it balanced, but it would be nice to let it stand freely.
