Spent all of the day working on a pretty iconic character. I'm really pleased with how he's turned out. I'm thinking about making an apoc data sheet for him. Any ideas for rules?

Forget Apoc.....I would use him as a counts-as Marbo in a hearbeat
He is just too cool not to use every game!

Na, i think he has to have either jump pack rules or jetpack rules... damn he's zoo cool he should have both!

Very nicely done.

Needs a little filling around the base of the rocket, but otherwise, Job's a good'un.

For rules, it kind of depends whether you go just by the movies or by the Expanded Universe fluff... EU-wise, run him as an Eversor Assassin with a jump pack. Movie-wise, he just stands around and complains a bit, and then screams like a girl when a blind man pushes him into the Sarlacc... which doesn't really translate well onto the gaming table

Thanks for the suggestions guys.

That's pretty awesome. Rules, I don't have too many suggestions.

I'd like to get nitpicky here. Out of love, you see. So that it'll look that much better when painted. It looks like the very edges of the shoulder pads are a bit rough, if you can reach them with a bit of filing. Same with the knee pads, but judging from the rest of the GS work you can definitely get those down smooth. The arms look a bit weedy to me too, but that probably has more to do with my expectations of ape-like GW figures, and less of a fault with the mini itself.

In any case, it's an awesome idea and you've pulled most of it off really well. Can't wait to see this up and painted!

My friend used his Boba for the Vindicare assassin. Of course he used the vindicare model for the conversion so it made sense..but he has a whole star wars themed IG army.

Great fig

+1 Using him as a count-as assassin

Brilliant model mate.

Except he should have a rule that anytime he uses his jumppack he must roll 1d6, and on a roll of "1" he flys into the nearest wall/obstacle and is removed from play...

PLEASE post a tutorial for this! this is too awesome!!

Can't afford to miss? LOL! What kind of ridiculous advertising nonsense is that? I specifically clicked on this thread and ignored the OP and all other posts. Because I missed it, I'll be expecting a huge bill in the mail soon, which I cannot afford.

I want one.

haha dude that is awesome. What head did you use as a base?
+1 for counts as Vindicare. Great work.

WIN!!

WOW... just, wow...

One thing, he should be vulnerable to pits...

I demand you sell it to me. Or commission a casting house to make more of them. I DEMAND IT!

I thought you were talking about the bat-grot to begin with >_<

£200 and he's all yours. That includes paint job.
