wow new gun looks amazing!

Yes, definately much better! I use inferno pistol fronts for my combi melta conversions, its so much more convinient

why do I look at threads like these? They make my armies look so bad I cant look at them for weeks because of how ashamed of them I am...

Interesting conversion for the melta-gun. Looks much better with the Star Wars aesthetic.

I aquired some Inferno pistols from the blood angel range.
I chopped of the barrels and replaced them with my current melta gun barrels.

Here is the result. On the left old, right is the new barrel. Way better if you ask me:

Wow, these models are so cleverly produced. And yes, the gun on the right looks better

W.i.p of the Clone Sniper:

Nice looking sniper there. What gun are you going to give for the actual rifle.

Re: reserve rules, as all the posts on that topic have been wrong in some way:
You don't count units that have to start in reserve. This means that your three fliers don't count for reserve, but they are not dedicated, so whatever you put inside them still counts. You have 7 other units, which means 4 have to start on the table.

Very impressive modelling and painting

Ok I got that I have 7 units for the matter of counting reserves.

But I thought 3 was enough to start with, as it's rounded up right?

wow I love that sniper!

Finished Sniper:

I don't have the feeling I gave this model all that I got IMO. Can't put my finger on it, what it's missing, but it's good enough though.

Here you go:



Arc troopers are reaching completion too. And Commander Fordo aswell!

More on that later!

That looks absolutely amazing!
You could paint some kill markings on the rifle though...

Good one! I might consider that!

Excellent work! Maybe you should make an AT-TE? I've always loved those walkers, and might help you with your reserves woes!

Hehe, no AT TE for this army.
As I said, the army is already built, so there is no room for more units lol.

Anyway, here are the Arc troopers sans Fordo ( I can't get a good picture of him, the reds aren't coming out right :s, tomorrow I will try again with daylight )



Got a little distracted though by this dude:



Didn't really like the Sword-arm. So I took another arm from a diff. Sm kit and after some cutting and filing, I got this new arm pose.
Much better IMHO.



OH! All the Clone troopers are finished now! Fordo was the last one, you will see him tomorrow.
And after him I will make a total clone trooper shot.

Develain.

Army built or not, I still say you should make an AT-TE because they're epic!

Also, nice work on the librarian; glad to finally see some Dark Vengeance stuff on Dakka!

Love the sniper! and its good/bad that you have all of your troopers built.. i would have liked to see you do an at-te!

Captain Fordo:

Reeking of Awesomeness!!

I still cant express how much I love this blog with words. The captain's fantastic! I'd love to see some driods haha, a huge Star wars diorama like this would be SICK!! I'm so envious also of the arc troopers, can we get a close up on the sergeant hollogramming yoda pleeease?

Thanks!

Here is a close up of the hologrammer:



About the droids. I got some necron warriors from a friend. Chopped them up and they are going to be wrecked super battle droids on the Gunship bases:




And here is the Army shot so far: CLONE TROOPERS!




Next update will pobably take a while as all that is left is the Gunships, and highlighting that is a son of a

Enjoy! And I'll see you guys in a couple of weeks probably!

Only this Orkmoticon can adequately convey my thoughts on this project...

This is very nice work mate, i'm a big fan of star wars and now a big fan of yours. 10/10

Really really great stuff. Love the new models.

D

Fantastic group shot! Love every one of them.

Know what?

*Exalted!
These models are THAT well done!


The PROBLEM with these models is precisely what's so cool about them.
If you try to use these models at a GW store or event, they're going to try to kick you out (unless one of the judges has seen this blog). There's no way they'll believe these things started life as GW models. They're THAT good.
Maybe you should print out and take some of your WIP shots with you, if you ever go to something "official" GW. LOL

Eric

that captain is amazing! and I love the little hologram!

You just keep delivering perfection! Those captains are GREAT, such good representations of the show. Keep it up man =D

As MagickalMemories stated earlier, it'll be hard to go to any offical event with these guys! The gunships are prob only thing that looks like they could be GW parts, though they are all great models!
