From MikeF - Imperial Arsonist (Sarah's Star Yacht) & Imperial Grey Knight Terminators (Coruscant) - 70 points

 One final Friday post before the mad scramble that usually occurs last week of the challenge! This first entry is bittersweet. The Imperial Arsonist! It was fun to paint and the colors came out better than I had hoped. The bitter part is that the model is from Wargame Exclusive which is a fantastic miniature company based in Ukraine. Hopefully they are all safe and remain so for the duration of the conflict. I won't delve further into this as for some the challenge may be a welcome reprieve from our real world issues. 

The "Imperial Arsonist" is for Sarah's Star Yacht for transport to Coruscant.




I included this picture to prove she is in fact, a female figure!

For Coruscant I painted 5 Grey Knight Terminators. They represent both Imperial and good vs evil. I know it's the wrong "Imperial", but I've developed a strong disinterest in Star Wars over the years (I've probably just earned -200 points for that. Thank God DaveV isn't a minion!). These Grey Knights are the original metal from the early 2000's. I've had them about the same amount of time. The challenge is always a good excuse for tackling these old miniatures.




6 28mm figures + yacht and planet = 70 points

Thanks for visiting.

From DaveD - I am not unsympathetic no interest in Star Wars - tried it - does'nt do it. Always good to clear out the lead - good stuff !

  1. Mike, fantastic work once again man! "Imperial Arsonist" - almost sounds like a cabinet position in The Emperor's government...great work on such a cool figure.

    And those Grey Knights look the business - such wonderful figures, and excellent paint work on them.

    I hear you re: Star Wars dis-interest. Disney has that effect...but I got sucked into "Star Wars: Legion", so perhaps the bug is just laying in wait for you...
