Star Wars Armada – Imperial Squadrons
Bossk Hounds Tooth
This is Bossk’s Hounds Tooth or a YV-666 light freighter painted in brown with a some light brown dry-brushing. This was pretty straight forward to do. I was quite pleased with the simple detailed areas in green and red.
Boba Fett Slave 1
This is an early Slave 1 / Firespray 31 that I painted in simple grey and red, which proved to be quite effective. I enjoyed painting Firesprays as they have smooth panels with which you can blend & highlight.
Lambda Shuttle
A relatively simple paint job primarily using Games Workshop’s Russ Grey paint. Some simple detail with yellow stripes helps bring the model to life.
TIE Advanced
A set of TIE Advanced squadrons done in grey. I did a tiny bit of blending for the highlights, but I mainly used dry-brushing. After looking at these photos I’ve come to the conclusion that dry-brushing is good enough for such small miniatures; the time it takes to do blending isn’t really worth while.

TIE Phantoms
I took a quick-and-dirty approach to painting these TIE Phantoms. If you just want to get past having hordes of grey plastic on your tabletop then there is a lot of mileage in doing a plain base coat and just dry-brushing over it. Then just add a bit of detail like the yellow ends tho the laser cannons.
With these guys I regret not doing some more shading on the cockpit as this is easy and would add a bit of missing depth to the paintwork.

TIE Interceptors
TIE Interceptors – my favourite squadron! I think I actually bought these guys already painted with a the blueish colour scheme, so I just add some additional highlights and detail.
