Building the art of Nilo Rodis-Jamero

[Empiricus]

Well can't afford the original art but I can build myself some approximation of those models. On the printer right now:

A few hours printing and it has taken shape.

Inspired by this:

Some adjustments ready for greeblies and paint. Never did a Star Wars themed object before. Are there good sources for the correct color palette?

That looks great

Primed and a droid for now riding it.

Love it to bits...I always like the design approach Nilo took for his drawings. The stance of the pilot is really great!!

TBH without a pilot I would have never guessed what it was, but nice job regardless

Terrifically realised work!
Makes me wish I’d access to a 3D-printer too.

First layer of paint and I modeled a Scout tropper.

Printing a smaller tropper and playing around with different finishes. Good to see how things look together. This may take a while to finish....

Selected Vallejo Dull Aluminium, Duraluminium, Dark Aluminium and Magnesium for base colors now on to some weathering.

A very dynamic stance and model: pro-job all the way
