wow, consider me amazed.

that atst is amazing, it looks like a studio model.  I couldn't believe it used to be a POTF chicken walker...

Something I thought was pretty cool is that you have turned these basic figures and toys into amazing models.  The technique of glueing the joints tight and then puddying them up so that they are hidden is something I'd have never even considered doing...

Thanks buddy and I just think it adds that extra depth and realism if you glue the joints and putty them up.

I too like how you took the exposed sections of the at-at legs and filled those in. What exactly did you use again?

Ahh, sometimes the simple stuff works wonders, eh, Ron.
  Did you say that you were a modeler when you were younger?

I honestly think so and I started modeling when I was 12 yrs old, my dad got me my first tank kit and I haven't stopped since.

Hi All

While on patrol in the Benzin Plateau the 168th Recon Squadron come under attack by a horde of Tusken raiders, taken by surprise the 168th loose a number of men.
Realizing that his out manned the captain orders his men into a defensive position which is a futile attempt as this will there Last Stand.  All the figures and base were painted and weathered using Valejo and GW paints and pastels.
 
RECIPE
      
The figures - The Troopers are a mix of Hasbro's Sandtroopers and Stormtroopers and have been glued at the joints and then the joints have been puttied up.  The Tusken Raider is also from Hasbro and and has been glued into position.
 
The flag I made on PSP6 and then printed off and the pole is from the bits box, the writing on the flad was done by a SW font and the top reads ( 168th Recon Squadron) and the bottom reads (Empire before all else).
 
The Base - Is a picture frame from a two dollar shop and the sand/rocky base is a mixture of plaster,  sand and kitty litter.
