From StephenS: It's historical... (25 points)

G'day,

Last week I signed off by saying next up in my queue was something historical in nature. Well, it was a busy week and I didn't get to hit the brushes as often as I would have liked. Also, to be fair, what I did finish painting is historical, in 'a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away' sort of way...

I present the 'Tx-225 GAVw Occupier Combat Assault Tank' (rolls right off the tongue) from Atomic Mass Games for their Star Wars: Legion game. It serves the Empire, and may have appeared in one of the newer movies. It is a 32 mm plastic miniature, that to be honest, is not the prettiest looking tank I have ever painted. 

But a tank it is, and it is painted, so better looking than an unpainted tank on the shelf. Alas, it is missing the head that should be poking out of the drivers hatch. An especially unfortunate disappearance as it occurred after I had helpfully glued the hatch open. It may turn up again, probably amid many mutters of 'if it wasn't screwed on...'

All up, that should be a tidy 20 25 points for the tally.

No predictions about what will be up next this time.

Cheers,

Steve

From Millsy:

This thing is an absolute beast!

I've been tempted to add one of these to my collection a few times and been put off by the size and cost. I'm seriously rethinking that now having seen yours mate. You've absolutely nailed the right level of drybrush / highlight and the driver looks really nicely done too.

20 points seems measly for something this big so I'm adding a 5 point bonus.

Cheers,
Millsy
