They are dressed in black, they are capable and they are loyal to the emperor: Stormtrooper officers - the best of the best.
I reposed one of them by cutting off and repositioning the arms and head. I shortened his tunic too. The red Aurebesh letter on the marks him elite for gaming purpose in Imperial Assault.

Title: Re: Plastic Stormtroopers
Post by: Michka on October 15, 2015, 05:30:55 AM: Nice conversion. The officer is one of the figures that really needed more then one pose. I'm starting to regret painting all my figures already as everyone is making such great reposes lately.

And the Stormtroopers look amazing!

Imperial probe droids, the rather frightening protagonists in the ouverture of Episode V "The Empire strikes back"...
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-W7lDhTyFdZk/Vifk5R01jCI/AAAAAAAAIpk/SmkLetEKWpQ/s1600/ProbeDroids%2B003.JPG)
I made two different bases to mark the models either regular or elite. The jungle bases stand for regular combat abilities. All regular models (except Star Destroyer/Death Star staff) will be based that way. This is how the bases blend in with the terrain tiles of the board game.

Title: Re: Plastic Stormtroopers

Title: Re: Plastic Stormtroopers
Post by: Agis on October 22, 2015, 06:48:23 AM: The different bases is a great idea!

SW IA was really tempting me to go for transparent bases, but in the end I stuck to the classic textured bases...

BTW - Your minis also seem to suffer from the warped plastic bases, I had good results with the usual hot (nearly boiling) water, cold water technique.

Thanks Agis, if you mean the lifted edges - they are due to the thickness of a coin that is glued under the base to provide a bit of weight to the light plastic miniatures.

Post by: Constable Bertrand on October 22, 2015, 10:00:57 AM: Nice work on the sensor array, thats a nice touch Michi. Putting a washer underneath to add stability is a smart move. Ive been cutting the bendy plastics (WotC) off their bases and mounting to washers too.

More SW figures in the pipeline as the movie draws near mate?

I think the first Imperial Assault figures anyone chooses to paint after finishing the core game miniatures are Han, Chewy, and IG88. I mean, who doesn't want Han and Chewy, and IG88 practically paints himself.

Ysanne Isard - called "Iceheart", the highest ranking agent of the galactic Empire - a little conversion of an Imperial officer from the Imperial Assault board game. The plastic miniature was newly proportioned and is less tall now, got her arms repositioned and received a resin head that was donated by Fenryll miniature.

Two more Imperial officers - both slightly converted and in Imperial navy livery this time. The female got a resin head from Fenryll, but kept her hat and her silhouette got dry sculpted (carved) from the original body plus arms cut off, shortened and repositioned. The male got only his tunic shortened.

2018 saw me rebasing all of the aforementioned miniatures on clear acrylic bases, because the floor tiles showed space station floors, snow and a lot more too meanwhile and the sculpted and painted bases looked odd to me.

I wondered how to mark the bases for ELITE troopers and came to rubber bands. Thus the same miniature can be either ELITE or STANDARD.

Very easy, I cut them carefully off with a scalpel and repainted the edges of the soles where necessary. Cutting the AT-STs was a bit harder, because their feet were cast with the base.

Title: Re: Plastic Stormtroopers
Post by: Michi on March 06, 2023, 10:35:35 AM: Second thread resurrection today:

I decided to re-organize my storage in the attic and ordered some boxes and foams by Feldherr these days. My Imperial Assault miniatures are subject to that move as well and I found out that a lot of the expansion models were left unpainted and forgotten somewhere in the dark. A new group of young gamers who are currently dipping their toes into the first adventures of Hero Quest (mastered by myself) are doomed to step into IA not too far in the future as well, because they are big Star Wars fans too. I feel this is something that has to be supported of course and thought it would be better to paint the miniatures in time to have them ready when it's due.
So here are two Wampas and two Nexus for challenging encounters in the wilderness of a galaxy far far away... :D

The Rancor is from Fantasy Flight Games too. It belongs to the Imperial Assault range.
At this size scale doesn’t matter too much, so it’s just as good for Legion or SWMB by WEG.

Jabba is an Imperial Assult miniature as well as the Rancor. Both were released with the "Jabba's Realm" expansion, although Jabba himself was not provided with the set, but as a marker only (see third picture of contents). He was sold separately.

Size differences and having to replace every bendy lightsabre, however, really don't help :(

It's not the talent. I simply was lucky enough to be raised on the side of the channel where metric measures are used instead of confusing imperial ones like fluid ounces and other odd non-decimal weights... :D

From left to right, these are Jarrod Kelvin, Shyla Varad, Ko-Tun Feralo and Davith Elso.
There is a droid called J4X-7 as companion for Jarrod Kelvin, but that one's 3D printed version is not yet in my possession. The marker will do the job meanwhile, because miniature of "Jax" was never released officially.
