John Aiello
Cottrellville, Michigan
John combined Bandai’s 1/48 scale AT-ST, AMT/Ertl’s 1/15 scale Rancor, and Stormtroopers from Fantasy Flight Games to show the worst nightmare for an Imperial patrol that has encounter a full-grown Rancor. He ground off the shackles and chains molded on the monster and repositioned one of its arms. He painted both the Rancor and AT-ST with Tamiya acrylics; Citadel washes emphasized the monster’s skin texture, and artist-oil dot filters and AK Interactive washes detailed the walker.
