Thanks for the tutorial… Considering painting mine now.

Did you wash or prime the miniatures before painting?

indierockclimber06 Apr 2015 8:49 a.m. PST

I didn't do either. I did matte varnish them at the end just to be safe :)

Thanks! Nice tutorial, clever and easy way to do it and the result is very good.

I thought they came painted?

The big ships do, but not the fighters.

TIE tutorial coming soon. They weren't nearly as easy as the X-Wings, but painting them was SO worth it:

Those look good. Thanks for sharing.

What do you think of the rules?

Hmm, I wonder if Micron pens would work on these. I used them for fleet scale fighter minis and larger minis in the past and I think their permanent ink would stay on this plastic. I found their pen format and very small points much easier to use than brushes with paint and much easier to make fine lines with.
