I tend to consider all of my custom stormies to be Shadow Troopers. I don't tend to paint them shiny black though. I prefer more of a metallic matte (if that description makes sense) bc even though ShadowTroopers had cloaking tech I always found the highly glossed black armor look to defeat the purpose when not cloaked

Love the Samurai and 6" Shadow stormie. Someday I will make a 6" custom....

My only other 6 inch build was the Kreig I made for my buddy

So, I completed two more Shadow Scouts. The last one, if you have instagram you may have seen the stop motion/time lapse creation of video. I think I'll need to reactivate my YouTube channel so I can post it (and more like it). I set the two new guys with a third older Scout to complete a three man squad. Only after uploading the pictures to Flickr did I remember the birthday contest. If you've seen my early custom pics you know I have two existing Shadow Scouts, so now I have 4 and a potential entry for the contest. If I enter them then you'll seenthese guys +1 over in that thread.

The video is on my Facebook. Didn't YouTube it bc I use music that isn't mine

So, got a 3 day weekend and BBqing two of those days. But I'm trying to fit in time to work on two figures. Making a follow up to my Steampunk Fett (who's visible in the background of the first pic). Also, after getting my hands on the Hudson and Hicks figures from the Aliens movies, decided I didn't really have a use for both, so one has become fodder for a Black Series Galactic Marine. Both figures have a ways to go, but as I'm just killing time before guests come over I figures I'd post these WIPs

Those shadow scouts look incredible. As does everything else. But wow on the shadow scouts.

[Tamer]

Wow, that camo stormy is just awesome. So is the Steampunk Fett. Off to share.
