Clone Assassin (Clone Wars)
I finished my first Clone Wars custom figure. I hope you like my custom Clone Assassin. The basic figure was a Rex. I over-worked the helmet a little bit since my last post. The vibro blades are made of cardboard. The colour is a mix of 60% light blue and 40% firered dull. The weathering is made with darkwashing and drybrushing. I gave him a patch to show the cruel training of the Clone Assassins.
story:
Clone assassins were a specialized class of clone troopers created by the Kaminoan cloners on the planet of Kamino. These troopers were commissioned by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, through a special order during the Clone Wars. The assassins were trained specifically to eliminate Jedi by utilizing Teräs Käsi, a form of unarmed combat. Through training duels with Padawans of the Jedi Order, the clones developed greatly enhanced speed as well as an aptitude for anticipating strikes and the ability to resist Jedi mind tricks.
