Love these modular building tiles - they are a great way to give some really nice depth to the setting with all your crates, piles of junk etc.

Really great new addition. With all the scattered bits around it definitely looks grungy and lived in.

Thanks everyone  :)

Managed to finish another pair of AT-STs this afternoon (official SW Legion models)

The one on the right will be the detachment commanders vehicle… the gun next to the top hatch is a spare from another SW kit, plus I added a small aerial and some minimal stowage. 

The Walker on the left has an improvised storage pannier welded on the back… as supply chains began to break down I’m guessing that the crew decided to carry some extra supplies with them.





The gunner on the Command Walker has given his ride an Ace stripe as per the habit of tie fighter pilots.

Group shot with the first couple of walkers I painted up





I figure that this is probably all that is left of a company-sized formation of light walkers…part of a much larger armoured unit.

They are a beautiful (insert correct terminology for a group of AT-STs here) of models. I’m glad you added some stowage as I like the look and I’m struggling with the decision for my own smaller versions. I think you’ve done it in a very true to SW universe way (minimalist yet thematic) and no HSE (my theory is the lack of railings repeatedly shows that SW really was a long time ago - before 1974 at least). I can’t remember the TOE from the rpg books but I came to the conclusion that 4 was a good number to cover most my needs.

Awesome stuff, thank you for the constant inspiration.

Flock?

Nice work Akky, will they be scouting for a Herd(?) of AT-ATs or you being a bit more restrained for now anyway.
