Oh yeah, Ron, there's no subject material in a dio than wreckage! I can't wait to see how this turns out.

Well now I am sure liking the subject material of this one!

I will be following this one closely.

Update: Now on our front page. Ron, I think this looks great already, but I wonder what it would look like if that one snowtrooper was going to check out an At-At driver instead of an At-St driver?

I have always wondered what the At-St driver in the Battle of Hoth looked like. I always just assumed they looked like that At-At Drivers, but perhaps I am wrong. I would love to know the canon thought on this and what you think.

Looking foward to this!!!

Hey Ron. Will you be reworking the handrail into a more screen- acurate version? The new Hasbro at-st is realy sweet(and I know why they made the railing that way) but man a quick fix and it would sing.

HiAll

Hey guys before a reply to your posts what does teh bottom of the AT-ST feet look like?

Clonehead - Cheers mate ands yeah I hope it turns out the way I want, I'll be shanging it just a little but not to much.

Tamer - Thanks buddy and you know I was thinking the same thing and you have made my mind up, a AT-AT driver it shall be. Plus I think that the AT-AT style uniforms look better for snow dio's anyway.

hangarbay94 - Thanks bro and yeah I must admit I'm a little anal when it comes to my work bench. There is an old saying (A PLACE FOR EVERYTING AND EVERYTHING IN IT'S PLACE ) and I have to say it works.

CloneSniper78 - Cheers buddy and hope I don't dissapoint.

Road Warrior - Yeah mate I'll be changing the rails and adding a few other things and thanks.

artilarytrooper321- Cheers

Ron

I'm guessing that the bottom of an atst foot would look like a waffle iron, Ron.

I would think it looks similar to an ATATs foot, solid but with a "pad" sensor...

Never seen an official version or any pertaining artwork to go with it but Spookymufu has it right. Seeing how the ESB at-st wasnt a standard scout walker anyway. So I'd say something like this. (done in about 2 minutes in paint) Some segmented "shock" pads, a center cap over the terrain sonar sensor with various small stuff to break up the outline. Remember that this particular part is pretty heavy duty- not just because of wear and tear but also the ocasional small antipersonnel mine.

This thing will be sweet with some "long tube" chin guns and some more pluming on the chassis. You can fake the esb at-st pretty well. (now faking the slope of the top of the head would be more difficult)

Hi All

Well started on the AT-ST Hoth/Snow Diorama so hopefuuly all goes well I'll have it done within 2 weeks.

Ok I'll be labelling the pics in order as you gathered by the pics already this way it will save on time and confusion.

Pic 1 - I removed the rails from the top of the AT-ST using a sharp model knife. I cut them completely off  and then lighly sanded any excess.
Pic 2, 3 & 4- I filled in the opened seems using a model clay that sculptors use, as you can see from the pics the front, top and back were done. More pics soon.
