From AndrewE: Stormtroopers (30 Points)

The first Starwars Legion models I began work on where the trusty old storm troopers. Nothing fancy about them but so iconic in the Starwars universe. I had actually started working on these prior to the Rebel commando’s but finished the commando’s first in time for the bonus challenge


The eagle eyed among you would notice that there is only 6 there. I had started painting the test model prior to the challenge, so I have completed the full squad but not include him (are stormtroopers all guys?) in the challenge.

The paint scheme is pretty basic but ends up coming out quite nicely. A white undercoat, black wash and then touching up the white panels in the centre again (leaving some dirty edges). A little bit time consuming but a nice result.




Now… back to the rebels (and wookies!)

Well, we have set a precedent here with Wookiees, so remember they come in as 40mm and then some!

Lovely work on these classic Star Wars mooks, they're expendable, so you need a few of the blighters.


That's 30 points for you, sir!

  1. Great looking stormtroopers! (I don't think the evil empire is an equal opportunity employer!)

  2. Nice work Andrew! It seems there are quite a few of us painting Imperials this challenge!

  3. That's how I paint my Stormtroopers as well; it's a slog but looks great when finished IMHO.

  4. Nice work. Legion certainly seems popular, or maybe it's just Star Wars in general. Either way, your Storm Troopers look aces.

  5. 'Hey, I hit him!' Said no Stormtrooper. Ever. :)

    Great work on these slaves to the Imperium, Andrew.
