man those are nice customs, i think thats the biggest ammount of 501st ive ever seen in that kind of "jedi assault" pose, lovbe tha kashyyk scouts, and the scout commander well done
Thanks everyone! Yeah, my original JTA idea was to get 14 501sts, since if you count, Anakin is leading them 7 across up the stairs. When it became obvious they would be hard to find, I decided to go for 7 501sts and 7 customs...then when I found out they were the crappy ATTE gunner version, I decided to just make 14 of my own (I still think they used too light a blue, so I like mine better anyway
) . They are kinda bunched up for the pic, but eventually I would like to build stairs and have them 7 across and following Anakin...er, Vader.
I have had alot of fun these past 9 months of customizing (I started in September), and the Scout commander was definitely one of my favorites. It is actually based off of one that CHEWIE did last month, and I loved it so much I just HAD to do one. There's slight mods (I believe Chewie had the pauldron on backward and didn't include the Kama), but I loved his look and felt that I would duplicate it as much as I could...and then I couldn't find his pic anymore! I think I got the gist of it, though, and I thought the chain gun would be an awesome addition. Then, when counting his guns (hold out scout blaster on the ankle, holstered blasters on hips, and chain gun), I figured he would be a force to be reckoned with - so why not give him one more gun? As soon as I got home from work that night (I'm fortunate for now to have a job where I can custom at work...for a few more weeks anyway), I found a clone rifle, and a military gun with a strap...seemed like the perfect thing to add so that he never runs out of ammo in the midst of battle.
