It's been quite a while since I posted here.  There is some great work on this board. I thought I'd start a thread with some of my stuff.

My latest is first and under that will be a few I've done over the years.

Update : 10/3

Tower Gun - I applied some plating and pieces to the gun and gave it a prime coat. Still a lot of work to be done.



Imperial Commandos -

Inspired by Republic Commando and Ghost Recon I wanted to design a squad of commandos that would be a crossover from the Old Republic to the Empire.  So, these Imperial Commandos were born. 

These guys were cobbled together in a couple of days.  The hardest part was trying to stop myself from overdoing it.  I'm always tempted to add more or redesign the figure the longer I look at it.  I'm sure they'll change soon. Anyway, here is what they look like now.



1. Commander -

Helmet - AT-AT Driver, Clone Commander visor, Death Star Gunner antenna.
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Scorch, misc accessories, Mark IV sentry patrol droid from POTF2 Cantina diorama.
Hip holster and pistol - Clone Commander
Hip pouch - Scout Trooper
Rifle - Marauder Inc's E-11
Rank Badge - Commander Cody
Belt gizmo - Clone Pilot



 2. Sniper -

Helmet - AT-AT Driver,  Death Star Gunner antenna
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Snowtrooper
Ammo pouch - Sandtrooper
Hip holster and pistol - Scout Trooper ankle holster and blaster
Thermal Detonators - Clone Trooper belts
Rifle - IG-88 with some Joe scope.



3. Heavy Ordinance / Explosives Tech -

Helmet - AT-AT Driver,  Death Star Gunner antenna
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Scorch
Rifle - POTF2 Stormtrooper blaster with Scorch's anti-armor attachment added.
Ammo - Scorch



4. Tech -

Helmet - AT-AT Driver,  Death Star Gunner antenna, Jango Fett range finder
Torso - 30th Anniversary Stormtrooper
Legs - #41 Clone Trooper
Backpack - Sandtrooper (modified)
Rifle - Marauder Inc's E-11
Wrist Computer - Some GI Joe
Leg Gadget - I forget.





Imperial Gun Tower -

This has been a work in progress now for some time.  Here is what I have so far.

Star Wars Action Figures / Emperor Palpatine (Reclining) V2
« on: April 11, 2006, 04:19 PM »
Some of you may remember the seated Emperor Palpatine I did a while back.  I created another version which is not too different than the previous one but it does have a few changes. 

Original Version can be seen here:  Emperor Palpatine Version 1

Version 2:



I will upload more images in the near future.

Version 2 Parts Used:

1. The chair, figure and hands are from POTF2 Final Jedi Duel Cinema Scene.
2. The head and outer cloak and clasp are from ROTS Emperor Palpatine Firing Force Lightning.
3. Arms are from OT Anakin
4. Hood is from POTJ Obi-Wan Kenobi (Jedi).
5. Unleased Darth Sidious base.

Steps:

1. The chair was removed from the base using a Dremel and sanded. The body was severed in two and readjusted so that it would sit in a reclined position. This took some sanding and reworking to get it just right. I took a lot off the bottom of the figure in order to get it to sit even lower. The arms were added.  The head was removed and not used. The outer cloak (ROTS) was split in the back and carefully glued (using ZAP) to the figure. The cloak is soft enough where you can begin glueing and work your way down making sure the robe sits well on the body. Some trimming will be necessary around the back, underside and near the hands.

2. The head is glued to the body.

3. The hands were painted the same tone as the face and attached to the arms. The arms are then attached using ZAP.

4. The hood was cut from the rest of the cloak and the clasp was added and painted flat black. Since the hood was smooth and the rest of the figure had texture I painted a piece of gauze to the hood and when it was partially dry I removed it. This left a fiberous pattern on the hood. Not great, but better than smooth.

5. Painted the base in semi-gloss black.

Tools Used:

1. Xacto knife
2. Dremel
3. ZAP glue
4. Flat charcoal spray paint (body), gloss black paint (base), Olive, red and light gray for hands.
