Thanks to Art deWhill for wanting to see a female sandtrooper. I present to you Sandy La Femme a Female Sandtrooper on Tatooine:

Went for a somewhat "cheesecake" feel on these. The stormtrooper armor and lack of complete human range of articulation makes it hard to do many pin-up poses, alas I think it worked pretty well! Awesome idea Art!

Thanks guys! So glad you like the photos and customs! Just whipped up a new one and shot some pics of it today. Created a simple Rebel Endor CO (Commanding Officer). I imagine this guy leads a squad through the jungles of Endor (or another forest planet) on a mission to sabotage some Imperial installation or destroy a shield generator. Either that or he's fresh out of the Rebel academy and is wet behind the ears. He relies on his squad mates who have seen action and doesn't know which strategies work in the actual battlefield.

It's a simple recipe, 30th Anniversary Rebel Honor guard body and D H-17
 TVC Rebel Commando Trench coat and helmet
 Target Exclusive Han Solo Hoth Gear Macrobinoculars

I like the look of the dress uniform and the trench coat:

WOW, what a creative output! I am very impressed.
Uhhu, Sandy looks great... hot :D
as said on fb thank you so very much for taking my idea and creating her!! I will definitely do a painting of her ASAP, adding weathering and stuff. Thats what I like most: seeing all the inspiration going from one artist to another, creating off-spin ideas... the most fun part of the hobby!
Thanks a lot, AFE!

Oh, almost forgot to write about the Rebel troopers, they are awesome, I very much love the trench coats! adding a forrest backdrop to the last pic and we have a cool box art!

AFE, I really like the female sandy but that endor officer was a great idea. The cloak does look good over that uniform.
