Bandai 1/12 Storm Trooper

June 9, 2020 · in Sci-fi · · 8 · 3.5K

Another custom character this time using the Sand Trooper kit. Practicing my sculpting on the cloth parts and using a newly learned painting technique for the red parts, “candy coating” . The straps and slings were made with electrical tape and also tried a new technique for the wrap on the extended arm, more electrical tape with wire glued and sandwiched between the strips of tape to bend and manipulate them. As always thanks for looking!

    That is really nicely done ?

  2. Travis, this is amazing stuff, a lot of quality work!
    He looks very mean!

  3. I really like the way you have done this build. The red in particular works well. I have great fun with Bandai Star Wars kits because the quality of the mouldings is always excellent.

  4. Very cool paint scheme!

  5. I'm not much of a figure or sci-fi guy, but this has tons of visual interest! It caught my attention!

  6. Love this Travis, great work man, I love the floating wraps, what an awesome addition.
