So it had to happen, Victoria and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Disneyland this past week and got quite immersed in the whole Galaxy's Edge "Batuu" thing.
Before we went I had already bought Victoria the Boba Fett model so that I could paint it up for an anniversary gift for her.
Next thing we know we are back in the Hoth-like Wisconsin and at our local game store and we decide to drop some cash on getting started with Star Wars: Legion:
As Victoria had already bagged playing the Empire and had the aforementioned Boba Fett I thought I should start off with a character too and decided to go for the Princess Leia command booster.
Who cannot turn down "Her Worshipfulness" to be leading your troops?
It's a fairly nice figure but the pose does feel rather awkward, she is sort of crouching, sort of running.
Like Boba Fett it was a really quick paint job of base-coat, wash, highlights that did not take too long at all.
A 40mm figure should be another 7pts to my total.
The pose may look awkward, but you've doe a great job of painting the Princess nonetheless. Now, where's that scruffy looking nerfherder?

I see what you mean about the pose but the painting is really effective!

DeleteGreat work on Leia, Paul, but I agree, my knees ache just looking at the posing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt, she appears to be doing lunges ;)
DeleteI see what you mean about the pose, but a nice paint job and your purchases should be enough to “dip your toe” into Star Wars legion!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jamie, there have been subsequent purchased ;)
