Tango 1 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Hello! This is my take on Bandai's excellent 1/12 Sand Trooper. These kits are superb and the quality of the parts and fit is fantastic. I will certainly be buying more of these! 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommygunn1972 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Great, I love the pose! I agree with the comment regarding the bandai kits they are very well made. I have mainly done bandai vehicles but did get the boba fett figure, he is made but I didn't know where to start on the weathering so he has sat on the shelf for a while. Any tips? You seem to have an eye for detailing figures I can't believe the difference between weathering a figure and vehicle, I guess I should just give it a go! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Moore Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Fantastic looking Sandtrooper mate. Really like the pose you've put him in. Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango 1 Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 Thanks Tommygunn! If you are weathering Boba Fett I would look at pics from the movies and take my hints from them. For example, his armour will be old and well used so perhaps some paint chipping there. For his clothes, I would use a sand coloured wash and for his jet pack, you could have some fun adding exhaust or scorch marks. Just a few idea's....... Andy, Thanks mate!

Vanoyen Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Looks great. Love the subtle weathering you've done. I think when it comes to desert troopers less is definitely more and you've nailed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
