Very days - but what the heck!!

I got me a modern bootleg black stormie and decided to use him as the base for a Sandtrooper



The rifle is going to be mounted to the back pack as it is way too long!

More soon..

Hey there!

Ok I broke my own rule about ink washes with this guy - however it was a total repaint of a black bootleg stormie (see last photo for a before and after comparison) and the painted white armour looked very flat. So I made this guy into my 'Tattooine Short-Timer' variant! I'll also do a 'Cherry version!)







In the above pic I missed a patch on his shoulder with my wash! I'd better fix that lolol







The black Stormie on the left is how the Sandtrooper looked before I started on him!



See you all again soon!!

Ray

Ray that sandtrooper is one of my all time favorite figures by you. It looks perfect! Love that you decided to weather this one. The pic of him standing beside the landspeeder is so cool! Also loving the Han you have cooked up for us! Great update and very nice work!

Awesome work Ray, Just wondering where you snagged the pauldron, backpack and long rifle from for the sandtrooper. I'd love to have a go at this one.
