March-April 2026 Monthly Round-Up

Another dual-monthly Round-Up today. Yes, at the end of May, I’ve finally finished posting March and April’s models while not yet having photographed a single one of May’s models.

It’s been awhile now – I didn’t even realise that the greenish buildings hadn’t yet been rounded up for one of these posts.

Only two “proper” Legion models as well, not counting the 3D printed Legion-Compatable terrain pieces. I did at least finish off a nice little chunk of Marvel Zombies’ Bystander models with six done (and more to come!)

I also took a few photos of the two broad scale categories alone, to give a little bit of a different perspective on each.

I do of course always like to see the all-in-one photos, but when you’ve got a couple of months smooshed together along with some incogruent scales of models, I’m thinking it might be nice to give them a bit of space to visually “breathe”. Metaphorically speaking.

Funny – it looks like more models when they’re laid out separately like that, doesn’t it! It certainly gives each model a chance to be seen, even in the context of a tiny part of a cityscape – but even that is improved as opposed to just a mass of stuff smushed together in a tight grey mass.

Well, that’s it for March and April. Now onto sharing May’s models during June… 🙄

Sci-Fi Hover Hauler (Curufin 3D Prints)

And another pair of 3D printed models from sculptor Curufin with a Star Wars Legion theme. This time it’s the Sci-Fi Hover Hauler – once again a free sculpt via Cults3D. This model comes with a choice of either a driver’s seat or an embedded Astromech Droid. I obviously chose the latter, and printed one at the standard size and one a bit larger. The Astromech that comes with this model is a bit simpler, so I replaced both with some other models I found online, then cut them in the slicer so they’d be the correct height to work for these haulers.

As with the cargo sleds from the previous post, these were also pretty straightforward, which again led to them painting up pretty quickly. The Astromechs required a lot more care due to their fine lines and were glued in place at the very end of the project. Sure, they look rough, but that’s very much the point with semi-industrial pieces like these. Again, while I think these will obviously work well for games like Legion and Shatterpoint – even with the ̶A̶s̶t̶r̶o̶m̶e̶c̶h̶s̶ Machine Spirits in place they should be ok for 40k and fine for Marvel Crisis Protocol.
