After a two-year hiatus due to Covid, l’m finally getting back into Star Wars Legion. I’ve started painting miniatures again and I’m making plans for more terrain. I’ve got enough terrain for a Mos Eisley-style table and an Urban table (with terrain that I also use for Infinity), but I […]
Fantasy Flight Games made us wait a little longer than we first hoped, but Star Wars Legion has finally arrived. Below are a couple of pictures of our first game, at 800 points. Most terrain is 3D printed.
Catalyst, by James Luceno, is the companion novel to Rogue One, the first standalone movie in the Star Wars franchise. Lucasfilm/Disney seem to have settled on providing more background by the means of novels. It has been done for The Force Awakens and the Rebels TV show before. Catalyst tells […]
Fantasy Flight Games’ X-Wing miniatures game has attracted a large following within a short time. This has, of course, led to plenty of coverage on the world wide web, too.

I’ve painted engine glow where appropriate, to make it look like those engines are actually powered up. Some people even do LED modifications on the larger ships!

The only must-have ship in wave 3 of FFG’s X-Wing game was, to me, the B-Wing. I ordered one as soon as it was available, and it’s a cool-looking miniature and a nice addition to my Rebel fleet. I didn’t like the upright pose, though (the B-Wing is usually displayed […]
Playing the X-Wing miniatures game has re-kindled my interest in Star Wars. I have not only started working on new miniatures and terrain for Star Wars Miniatures Battles, but also decided to read Michael Stackpole’s Star Wars: X-Wing books. Of the nine original books, the first four (Rogue Squadron, Wedge’s […]
The Star Wars universe was somewhat dormant in the early 1990s. It had been eight years since Return of the Jedi, with new material being mostly limited to the source books published by West End Games for the Star Wars roleplaying game. Then, in 1991, came Heir to the Empire, […]

[lang_nl]Een paar foto’s van miniaturen die ik de laatste weken geschilderd heb: Phantom Mech van de Clan Wolf Alpha Galaxy. Dit is misschien mijn laatste mech in deze kleurstelling. Ik heb nog een Marauder IIC staan, maar weet nog niet precies wat ik ermee wil doen. Long Fang Black Mamba. […]
