Another platoon of 501st join the Grand Army of the Republic. A nice tip that I discovered on this batch was to wash their visor with Nuln oil ink, It fills in the small nasal slits and looks much better. I need to go back and do the other two units now.
Flesh wash used around the sides of the helmet looks good for built up grime. Another the lead pencil is good for highlighting the visor and armour edges.
I dropped this base and all three figures snapped clean off at the ankles. The great thing about these prints is that super glue fixes them so well, it's stronger than the original. This is very reassuring for the future with lots of tank turrets etc on the to do list
Very quick to do and very rewarding, with each unit that gets done, new lessons are learnt and the process gets easier.
