Hey guys so I managed to get a bit more repainting done this weekend on my Xwing models in preparation for a few games I have coming up this week with Jamie and Scott.
First up I repainted a Z95 Headhunter to represent N’Dru Shulak, one of my favourite ships/pilots in the game. He is by no means the “best” but for his points it’s hard to argue with his pilot ability and PS7. He naturally couples with Lone Wolf which for 19pts is amazing value! Also I came up with a nice wee combo giving him cluster missiles (which benefit from his pilot ability firing 4 shots from each cluster, 8 in total!), glitterstim (to really maximise those missiles!) and Guidance chips (turn any one dice per turn with a missile to a hit). This could be crazy good at burning down one target with 8 shots that are very likely to hit (7/8 hitting on average easily). I’m not over the moon with the free hand on this so will go back and try to improve tonight.
I also repainted both my IG88 Aggressors, the out of the box paint job on both these ships was really not to my liking so have basically entirely re done them. The blue canopy is not as good as I had hoped when viewed in day light so I will be going back with a blue glaze to improve this tonight also to smooth the transitions.
