Hoth is coming...

 o/

As hot and humid as Charleston is currently, painting something to look frozen seems like wishful thinking. 

I am still on the Star Wars Legion terrain painting kick. My buddy Nick 2.0 scaled up my caverns terrain STL files and has started cranking them out for me. These are now big enough for my Legion minis to fight amongst the corridors. Infantry sized bases only, but I am hoping to eventually have enough of these to at least play some recon sized games. Scenarios will have to be altered, but we'll figure it out, I am sure. 

I am also looking for a home for my original cavern collection since I've never been able to use them. I've posted on the eBay-lite discord channel on a low country South Carolina to see if anyone is interested. No bites yet, but they'll require a large box and will cost a good penny to ship. 

Anyways, here they are so far: 

Not exactly Echo Base defenders, but they work in the interim.

Looks very chilly, or so I hope. 

I have some proper Snowtroopers arriving Monday. Unfortunately, I am out of white (non-Krylon) primer. So, I'll have to order some which will delay their painting.

11 tiles currently. Each side is approx. 3" wide, and each hex is approx. 6" wide. 

Storm troopers for scale. 


At some point this chamber was open to the sky and some vague plant life briefly was able to grow and thrive before freezing into oblivion.

Wampas get all the attention but beware the little abominable snowmen chucking snowballs in the deep, dark, and frozen recesses of Echo Base. 

The same Etsy seller that most of my other Legion terrain that I have, sells Echo Base interior pieces. I'll get some of those as well to populate these hexes. 

Anyways, that's what I have been up to here of late.
