Agis' Imperial Assault minis - Jabba's Realm

[Agis]

Trandoshans are my favourite Star Wars dudes. Fantastic work as always, Agis!

I have two more (more radical) Trandoshan conversions build and in the paint queue...

[Gibby]

I look forward to seeing 'em!

Great work as always. I love what you did with the AT-ST. That darker color really works for Imperial Vehicles. The Trandoshans is pretty darn spiffy too. You solved the same pose issue nicely, and I really like the muted color you chose for those two.

Not the promised Elite Trandoshans (still WIP) this week, but the two Nexu from the core box.



The Nexu predators - Nexus were feline creatures native to the chilly forests of the Indona continent on the planet of Cholganna. There were other breeds of nexus on Cholganna's other continents, but only the forest nexu had an additional set of eyes able to view in infrared wavelength, which aided in their hunting of bark rats and tree-climbing octopi.
Nexu were often exported and trained as security beasts, as used for patrolling on Malastare, or used in arena combat, as seen on Geonosis - you do remember the arena fight of Padme vs the Nexu in Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones, or?

The Imperial Assault sculpt captures the brutal feel of the Nexu very good IMO! I reposed the Nexu a bit under hot water to distinguish the two beast on the table.

Good looking Nexu. Those were the minis I was least looking forward to painting, and they turned out to be the most fun. Wish I'd thought of using the hot water method to repose one too.

I actually tried to close one Nexu mouth, but the plastic had too much "memory".

Nicely painted Agis, and the subtle variation in the figures is a nice touch.

Very nice Nexu.

I always like Gamoreans so I hope they bring some out as a villain expansion for the new expansion

The recently released Ally Pack was just too nice to be left out.


Funny thing is that I am one of the few Star Wars fans that are NOT Wookie/ Chewie fans! But to play with them is just nice. They also paint up in minutes! As usual you get identical minis, so again time for a slight conversion, this time a simple weapon swap.
The darker Wookie got a resin after market Power-Kopesh!

Very nice the same mini in each pack is very irritating to me. But I like your simple conversions.

[grant]

Very cool.

[Momotaro]

Brilliant painting, as always!  And quick too - they were only released last week!

With you on the lack of different poses kidterminal, but easy enough to add some individuality to the models as Agis has cone.

[Knightofspades]

Amazing cool paintjobs. White and black like you got on your storm troopers are really hard to do nice. Good work.

[Andym]

Nicely done Agis!

And the finally finished elite Trandoshan hunter:


A bit more converted, I repositioned the head and arms and gave him some equipment from the Eisenkern Stormtrooper (backpack, shoulder pads and pouches).
