Just posting some commission work I have completed. It was pretty cool working with the old school stormtrooper models. I tried the best I could to make each model its own. These guys are solid plastic and have no other poses or no ability to change poses. I also wasn’t going to hack up these model considering their value. Hope you like it as always any and all C&C is welcome. I am always looking to improve my painting skills.

The aged metal makes the figures look more gritty and worn in. I want!

Lovely job. Any more to come?

The best thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's far too late to stop reading it.

Have to agree the berets do give them a British military look but NOT commando as the Bootnecks use Green Berets.

The Royal Military Police use Red Berets and the British Airborne Forces (Para's) use Maroon and are fiercly proud of the fact.

Sorry for going off topic but as an ex Para i had to pipe up.

Lovely painted minis nevertheless.
