I'm now getting to the point where a fully painted set of Bob Olley's Iron Claw space pirates is a realistic outcome in the near future (I have 6 left to paint). This set of three brings me up to 11 out of 17. Happily, there are still some fun characterful figures to come!
I stuck with the tried and tested rebel commando colour scheme for two of the new recruits, but Dambo Kweltz helmet just got me thinking of rebel pilots! I suspect he pilots one of the more boring fighters (probably a Y-Wing), so I didn't give him the cool orange jumpsuit that the X-Wing pilots get.
Captain Dunbar has a really odd hat with weird folds and bulges. He also has a gun that looks like a super-soaker. I wonder whether the hat would have been better in white?
And another group pic, to see how the resistance is growing!
The Commando colour scheme works really well on these sculpts, they look awesome! But how dare you insult the glorious Y Wing sir! :P
ReplyDelete😄 I knew I should have said A-Wing instead of Y-Wing!!
DeleteThese just keep looking great. The helmeted figure is my favorite of this group.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bill! He's my favourite too, although I wasn't that fond of the figure before I painted him.
