No Droids Here!
Working on the Troopers
Hi everyone,
I started to work on the Storm Troopers; cleaning them up and getting them for painting. I have to say, I have rarely needed to do so much cleaning up on a model as I did on these Storm Troopers. This is the first time I have worked with these products, and I wonder if I just got a bad batch or are they all like this?
I also decided to modify the dewback rider slightly to look more like the art. After I added green stuff in order to cover up the connection points.
Preparing to dry fit and clean.
I did not like the weapon size on the trooper.
The artwork shows a thinner and longer weapon.
Fixed weapon.
These models needed so much cleaning.
After clean up, I putty-up the models.That’s all for this week. Stay tuned for next week.
Best regards,
NR
Is that just blutack holding the troopers onto the corks? I am planning on clear acrylic bases for my droid army and am trying to figure out how to hold onto them for painting!
Hi, sorry for the late reply. No they are pinned with paperclips. The blutack is just there to steady them. You might have a problem there ass the droids are very spindly. Maybe if you super-glued them to spare citadel bases them very careful cut them off with a blade.
