Is that a SS or Medi? Stormtrooper=Bad@ss

I told you I started a Scout Trooper...aproximately 2 weeks before SSC announced theirs Blah blah blah! Who wants pictures?

Fun fact: This is the first figure I actually used the thigh muscle attachments that come with the TT bodies. His legs looked really scrawny otherwise.

Yes Spidey this is the all BLACK one I bought off you a while back.

Is that all Hasbro, except for body of course? In some of the pic's (one's standing up) the neck looks a little long, but the one's on the bike look fantastic. As for the Sideshow Scout compared to yours.

Got em all!

EPIC!!!!!

Tano, Clone Wars Ventress and Tarkin are all gonna be stand outs in the collection for sure.

Total Monster update Nate.

Thanks guys!

Outlander - Thats a Marmit Stormie. Here's a breakdown of the Scout. I agree the neck looks a bot long. In reality I think its because the helmet is a bit small.

Body = TT knowckoff slightly modified shaved down the calves and forearms a little as they were too thick
Head = cast SSC Waxer head. I had it lying around and since he's bald it fit nice in the helmet though I had to cut off his ears.
Balaclava = scored that on ebay for cheap
Helmet = repainted Tomy
Cumberbund = made myself. The pouches have foamboard inside to keep the shape.
Armor = all repainted Hasbro except the shoulder bells
Shoulder bells = from a resin model I never built since its not true 1/6 scale so I sanded off the center ridge and used them on this
Bodysuit = Navy blue coveralls that I removed all pockets and the collar and then dyed black
Gloves = BBI I think

Wow...that's a little more involved than I thought, but it all came together great. I have 2 Hasbro Scouts with bikes as their my favorite troopers and I'm on the fence about getting the SS one or tying to upgrade the Hasbro. I have the Tomy helmets already. The price of the SS stuff and how great your trooper looks makes it a hard decision.

Meh! I still PO'd the SSC Scout Not the bike though.

The head is from
WARRIORS GATE PRODUCTIONS - HOME

The body is an Obitsu 25cm but the hands and feet are way too small so I'm using other hands (phicen I think), and I'm modifying the feet.

Finished my Tarkin. I still can't paint eyes very well, and I think I'll go back and touch up the hair. Any suggestions?

TTL 2.0 body Shortened. He stands a perfect 12" (6 feet tall)
Head sculpt from ScottyB
Hands - HT Joe Colton
Uniform - Hasbro painted Field Grey
Code Cylinders - Homemade - brass tubing and styrene
Belt - Homemade - Pleather
Buckle - from enaud
Rank Insignia - from enaud
Boots - DID


My crappy iphone4 camera doesn't capture colour very well so the 1st pic is one I color corrected in photoshop. This is how it actually looks in person.



as shot:








I'd love to get him in this classic pose but the Hasbro suit doesn't allow it FYI I used Hot Toys Joe Colton hands


Much better than before

Re: Natedog's figure bashes and customs - Update! Scout Trooper Page 20

Nice job as usual. He looks great.

Re: Natedog's figure bashes and customs - Update! Scout Trooper Page 20

Awesome job Nate! Yeah I know what you mean about the pose. The sideshow uniform doesn't allow for it either, sadly.

Re: Natedog's figure bashes and customs - Update! Scout Trooper Page 20

I seem to remember Tarkin having a grey undershirt that showed when he extended his arms. Maybe if you add one, it would help with the short officer sleeves?

The neck looks a little long? Other than that looks great.
