Just browsed through you thread, FF. Apologies for not doing so before, but you've really developed your skills over time. Those Bacara, Gree and Bly Stormtroopers are exceptionally well done.

Interesting that you use enamel paints. I take it you prime the figures first?

Thank you Mr.Black.
No I don't prime the figures. The Revell enamel paints don't need a prime in my opinion.
I clean the figure with water and dishwashing liquid to remove dirt and fat before I start to paint.
I protect the figure with clear coat when the paintwork is finished.

Very interesting. How do you cope with the issues of using enamel paints on the softer vinyl plastics, like removable helmets and arms? As far as I know, enamels won't 'stick' to that type of plastic and remain tacky, as opposed to acrylics.

I've really been enjoying your updates of these PT clone commanders to their OT stormtrooper counterparts.  Interesting in that you use enamel paints; I would not have considered going with those, but your work with them is very good (as Gree, Bacara, and Bly have shown). 

I concur with Mr. Black: your customizing skills are now complete.  When I left these boards some time ago, you were but the learner; now you are the master!   Va1

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Christoph, are you ever envisioning trying one of these in the 6 inch scale, if the figures get a little easier to find? That would be cool.

Thanks for your comments gentlemen.

Shawn: Great idea my friend. A 6 inch version of the Stormtrooper Bly would be awesome. I will think about that as soon as the 6 inch figures are easier to find.

Man, that stormie Bly is great! I love the six inch idea. Cobbling up the visor would be fun.

Great idea, updating the clone commanders into Imperial troopers! Can't wait to see you do more!

I can't wait to see if he makes more great Stormtrooper Commanders based Clone Trooper Commanders or ARCs.

Stormtrooper Commander Cody

Soon after Order 66, Palpatine's rise to power was completed with his ascension as Emperor of the first Galactic Empire. As a result of the Grand Army's reorganization into the Stormtrooper Corps, Commander Cody and the remaining clone troopers who survived the Clone Wars composed the first generation of Imperial stormtroopers. Ultimately, Cody remained in service to the New Order for years. In that time, he witnessed the rise in recruitment of birth-born Humans as enlisted troopers, which in turn led to the decline and marginalization of the original Jango Fett clones.
[wookieepedia: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/CC-2224]

Here is my Stormtrooper Commander Cody custom figure. He is my fourth Stormtrooper conversion after Gree, Bacara and Bly. Neyo will be the next to complete my conversion of all five "movie commanders" into Stormtroopers.

What a cool evolution of Commander Cody. Oh yes this is going on the different front pages.
