3D Print: Sci Fi - Console Banks and Terminals by Sablebadger

Continuing with the Star Wars-ish theme as we move into July and Dave Stone’s Season of Scenery 2026, I’ve got a whole bunch of printed computer consoles painted in a “Star Wars Imperial” style. I was inspired to print and paint these by watching through Chris Peach aka “Peachy”‘s series of YouTube videos showing the start of a Star Wars-Themed Five Parsecs from Home campaign, titled “The Rambolorian” and seeing some of the terrain he was using.

Sablebadger, aka Brander Roullett has a fair few Star Wars-themed STLs available at no cost on Myminifactory and also some of them are also on Thingiverse as well (I think!) Finding these after watching the above videos, I printed a few of these and also mirroed a few of them and printed them that way as well. You can see that Flippy was having some issues with print lines when I was painting some of these, but with a hotend heating asembly replacement, I’m hopeful that these issues will be past.

While I could have sanded and filed, and fillered these, it simply isn’t worth the time to do so when I can print these in a couple of hours. These aren’t painting competition diorama pieces, they’re cheap & cheerful bits of terrain that will still look quite effective on a table. Painting the buttons was far more painful then painting the screen details, but they turned out quite well I think, all things considered!

June 2026 Monthly Round-Up

by

Today we have a rather strongly themed monthly round-up for June’s models. Yep! Every one of June’s completed models are from a single faction in a single game. Not that I didn’t also work on a bunch of other random things, but the completed stuff did manage to be tightly focused.

Not that I didn’t also work on a bunch of other random models over the course of the month as the most common way I paint models isn’t actually painting a few from start to finish, but chipping away at often up to a couple dozen of models at once, and then focusing on a few at a time to complete.

The really nice thing about June’s progress is that when I combine these models with the few Imperials I’ve completed previously like Vader, Krennic, Veers, Officers – even without Palpatine and his Guards – I’ve now got a playable force for Legion, even if it’s far from optimised in any way.

I’ve got another trooper squad and a few extra add-ons to paint before I rotate over to painting Rebels en masse, but yeah – those will be the next mass of trooper-types after a few more Imperials. Unless I get distracted again.

The next post will bring us into July’s models, so we’ll start to see the Season of Scenery stuff I’ve been working on begin to be shown.
