Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

[MGibster]

The vest laid plans of mice and men oft go awry. My original plan was to put Chewbacca in the hatch and maybe add some Ewoks to the base. This is a captured AT-ST used against the Empire. But given the cost of Legion Ewoks, I decided against it. Instead, I will be able to switch our Chewbacca or General Weiss depending on whether I’m playing Rebels or Empire.

The base is a little busy, but I don’t mind.

Love the rust and damage! Brilliant work!

The model on the left is almost completely painted as of 11/22/25 and the one on the right is from 2018. On the left, I applied a very dark base coat, used liquid masking for chipping effects, and airbrushed Tamiya grey. I used some panel liner and then some rust and streaking effects.

I didn’t own an airbrush back in 2018, so I used Citadel paints. I used a sponge to add the weathering effects.
