Last Friday, the new Geonosian expansions for Star Wars Legion were released, and as a challenge, the family inspired me to acquire and paint the figures before the end of the weekend. Challenge accepted, the painting wasn’t really that difficult, though I admittedly cut several corners. The harder part was assembly, the models are multiple parts, and are about as difficult and detailed as the B1 Battle Droid kits.
Overall, I am satisfied with the results – they won’t win any competitions, but they are very much table-ready which is all that our group really cares about. Specific paints and order of operation listed below.
- Black primer – White Zenithal
- paint full body Citadel Contrast – Skeleton Horde
- paint armor and Sun Fac’s staff – Citadel Contrast – Garaghak’s Sewer
- detail paint gemstones – Army Painter Warpaints Air – Gemstone
- blaster details are a white dot, covered with – Army Painter Warpaints Air – Gauss Green
- base color is a layer of Army Painter – Wasteland Soil, covered with Citadel Technical – Martian Ironearth
