Copy of entry in the contest thread so I can find it later:

OK I think I'm done with this guy. I decided to take a slightly different route with mine, and build a 14-point POA First Order AT-AT Forest Gunner. In the new first order, AT-AT door gunners have taken on the expanded role of commanding incursion troops once the heavy vehicles have cleared a path. Accompanied by his tactical and communications droid, BB-6C, the First Order Forest Gunner is a formidable opponent to the resistance. 

Hope you guys like it, he came out pretty much exactly as I hoped he would!











and a couple bonus process shots:


All used parts


Dry run fitting parts together before painting and gluing.

Recipe:
Head, belt and upper torso: First Order Stormtrooper (black series)
Upper arms, legs, harness and lower torso: AT-AT Driver (TVC)
Lower arms, Lower legs: Imperial Evo Trooper (30th Anniv)
Chest box: First Order Tie Pilot
Helmet: parts of AT-TE gunner helmet and a Jek Porkins POTF2 helmet
Gun: random Gundam accessory.

Awesome FO gunner! I like the use of parts and paint apps. That gun is killer.

Your Gunner looks fantastic. I used it on the front page today.

Great job with this gunner. The use of the EVO trooper body parts is a great idea and I love the paint job, especially on BB.

And here's the Nihilus to go with my Visas Marr. I usually prefer a lot more articulation than this, but I liked Kylo's sculpt a lot for him, and if there was ever a character that could stand to be represented without much movement, it;s Nihilus.

Recipe: Kylo Ren's TFA body, Nihilus's Evolutions hood, a resin cast of Nihilus's head, and the cape from Asajj Ventress. Saber is Ren's with the crossguard cut off and the hilt repainted.

Nice job on Nihilus. I think you're right, the Ren body works well as a base. He looks great.

More comments on the front page and I agree that Ren body is perfect for Nihilus!
