Looks like they are packing some serious heat

How many stormtroopers do you have in total?

Finally back from a work trip. Here's a pic of all my Empire troops.



I make it approx 40 Stormtroopers, 17 Imperial Army and 9 Imperial Navy figures.

As always, more pictures on the blog https://nozzawargaming.blogspot.com/2023/10/the-galactic-empire-armed-forces.html.

Lord Vader will be pleased!

Maybe. It’s hard to tell, with the mask.

A respectable sized force for any game - lookin' good!

Reminds me I should dig out my stash of mini-rigs and actually do something with them!

Any conversation with Lord Vader you get to walk away from, right?

Very nice collection Nozza. Great to see the imperial army troopers again they are my favourite.

Have you finished do you think or will this army keep growing?

[Malamute]

Long live the Empire!

 

Save the rebellion!

Save the dream!

Great to see your troops on parade!

I'm calling them finished for the moment, but never say never. If I see some Stormtroopers in a sale

Following on from my Empire overview. Here is my little contingent of Jedi Knights. The vast majority are converted Frostgrave wizards that I did back in 2020. Also, there's a couple of Rogue Stars figures and lastly a Yoda/Grogu figure from Diehard Miniatures.

Excellent, always good to see the Frostgave wizards being put to good use!

Nice work Nozza, quite a collection

Although I never watched it religiously, I have always had a fondness for Stargate SG-1. Recently, I found myself binge watching it while I was getting over a bout of Covid.

A long time ago, I picked up the 'not' Stargate figures from Hasslefree Miniatures. Although I gamed with them, I was never truly happy with their 'not Teal'c figure as it was armed two machine guns. What I really wanted was a Teal'c figure holding his famous staff weapon.

Fast forward to 2023 and you pretty much find what you want sculpted and available to be 3D printed. Sure enough, I found a Teal'c figure holding a staff weapon on Etsy. Designed by Papsikels and printed by Starlettminiatures, I bought the figure below.

Although billed as 32mm, when put on a standard 'slotta' base, the figure towered over other normal 28mm figures. So I used a thinner base. Next job was trying to match a paint job I did over 10 years ago.

Here's the result.



Mixed in with Hasslefree and The Assault Group figures.



The height difference and paint job hopefully not too noticeable.

After a Covid enforced break, eased myself back into painting with Kirk, Spock and McCoy wearing the uniforms from films 2 to 6. 3D printed via an Etsy seller.

Good job on the Stargate team...reminds me, I really must get a game in with mine at some point.

Also nice work on the Star Trek minis

yeah nice job on those star gate figs they look like they could be used in all sorts of games
