Time for a break from the fantasy and WWII painting projects. So, I got back to my Star Wars Legion models. I decided I needed a win with this game, as I stalled out painting my ARC Troopers! I chose to paint her, as it was a simple white job and I hoped it would motivate me to finish my outstanding Clone Troopers.
I assembled the model from the box, going with the pistol option. This “may” have been a mistake, as I have already bent the gun twice! However, it is a nice pose and very Clone Wars looking. I started by spraying the model in Krylon white to give a good undercoat and base coat. I then hit all the planned white area with GW contrast white. I followed this with a straight white highlight. This worked out, next I had to decide what to do with the leather items. I decided to go with a tannish look. So, I started to go with GW contrast skeleton horde. I then highlighted this up with some ivory and then a little white.
Next I painted the face and hair and finished up with the weapon and arm bands. These are silver with a wash of GW gloss Nuln Oil. My basing was done to match my existing figures using the GW technical earth. Some sealer and I have another character to add to my Clone Trooper forces.
