From TomM: Jyn Erso

"My father's revenge. He built a flaw in the Death Star. He put a fuse in middle of your machine and I've just told the entire galaxy how to light it."
    ―Jyn Erso and Director Orson Krennic

If you, like me, loved Rogue One, then this is the Commander for you.  Available to the Rebel forces, Jyn is a great operative for leading your forces, having some nice tricks up her sleeve.

The model, which like all FFG Legion figures borders towards 35mm in scale, has a super dynamic pose as she swings her Tonfa to smack her enemies across the face.

Coming in the light grey plastic typical of the range, the material and the details lend to a great painting experience without being to fiddly to assemble.
Just take care to attach the head first, and then the flaps of her scarf for the best fitting!

I went for the drakish green vest on her like she wears often in the movies, with a drabcoloured scarf for contrast on her otherwise dark grey clothing, to prevent her from becoming to bland at all.

And now, swinging her tonfa and with her trusty blaster, she is ready to lead my forces in the TSA Star Wars Legion campaign!

From PhilH: Another Mutant, X-Men Jubilee

Curt’s Peak Boon set me off on finishing more Marvel X-Men, this time a lesser character of Jubilee. Introduced to the team in the 1990s, she’s introduced as a ‘mall rat’ with the ability to generate blinding pyrotechnic energy from her hands (hence the pose). Jubilee had big arcs in the 1990s cartoon, but only cameo parts in the X-Men films.

 I made a bit of a hash of her face, sadly. Her yellow coat came out nicely though.

I also reworked the yellow on the Prof, which was rushed to submit before Challenge X closed.

Next up more SCW armour, then onto the bulk of my quarantine project: Star Wars Legion Stormtroopers. Yay, endless white!
