1/6 Sideshow Snowtrooper 2012

[Rorywan]

That mask looks better already.

Hope you'll share what you used.

The polite...

Tell us what you are using for the mask or PREPARE TO DIE!

The not so polite...



It's a plastic mail bag/envelope. It's special white plastic that is way thicker than normal plastic bags and is screen printed with grey ink on the back, so it feels quite good, and light doesn't come through.
It also wrinkles/creases very well, so it's perfect to get the scale in.

Simple yet so brilliant......

You shall live another day.

 

[Darth Waller]

Now I know Sideshow could've saved some money if they'd gone that route.

Congrats on the great mod and for living another day.

Not to nick-pick too much... I noticed some of the movie still shots of the snowtrooper the mask doesn't cover the shoulder armor. So I assume the mask can be adjusted?

Geesh I haven't received the figure yet and I am already complaining....

 

[Wor-Gar]

Rory!

Great work, simple solution. I was gonna leave the mask alone as it never really bothered me...but NOW it does! When I get this guy, I will have to follow your lead. You do such great futz-work!

Did you change out the body too? I like his posture in your pic.

WG is so easily influenced

Yep, KP bodies and snow-masks. What can I say?

I like this upgrade though, cheap. Vader's was expensive between the body AND the cape set... I spent enough money to buy a whole other figure.

 

[King Darkness]

But it was worth it!

 

[Wor-Gar]

But it was worth it!

Well worth it! It's Vader. King of Star Wars.... um, the King Darkness of Star Wars.

Here's it just futzed a bit, mask hasn't been trimmed or shaped just plonked on. It needs a load of work.
I will post some proper pics when I can show some progress. He is in pieces now..

Loving it, Rory!

That's a nice Hoth Dio - could do with being a bit bigger, throw in an E-Web, couple more snowies, maybe a 1:6 AT-AT...... perfect!

1:6 AT-AT??

that would be a VERY BIG dio..

 

[Chakaman]

Great job so far Rory, thanks for all the pics!!

That belonged to my Brother he took it back yesterday. He said I was having to much fun with it. He only asked to fix the eyes but I went overboard and did the hands, face shield, and eyes. But he loves it now.

 

[spiderrogue]

ahh..cool...

This is a great figure. I picked mine up last Friday from my local retailer. You will not be disappointed.

 

[gate45etc]

They warned me about eating the yellow snow. Didn't taste lemony in the least..
