Amt Star Wars 1:6 Stap With Battle Droid

Hi everyone I've decided to finish base with a metal finish and scribed it to add some interest and a pin wash later cheers John

I love the droid's colour, I thought you nailed it

Hi folks at last the weather as improved and the temperature in my man-cave(loft) is now bearable so I've managed to get the droid sprayed (base coat) and he's now sitting in the bath awaiting further attention.
In the meantime I'll crack on with the Stap.


Thanks for looking in and any comments left cheers John

£2:99 cheap as chips Si   I Just love bargains :x


I've managed to pick up a second one myself from the local car boot might do something really random with it paint wise. A nice surprise is how tall these things stand when built.


look forward to yours Si I'm certain you'll do a cracking job 


cheers john

Cheers John, was well chuffed when I found it. At 1/6 scale it is huge and will look well smart. One option was to wreck the STAP and have the droid with a blaster hole and a Clone Trooper standing over it posed, will see what it is like when I get it together. 


I have seen these battle droids in camo and they looked really good.

Smashing work!! O.o B|

Considerin' that's supposed to be a 'battle' droid, 'e looks pretty 'armless to me! Mind you, the paint job's first class.

Hi guys I've now come to the part of mounting the droid onto the stap.


As mentioned by someone previously this can be troublesome and they wasn't wrong and not recommended for the short tempered  >  so plenty of deep breaths and lots of counting. This really could fly xD More later cheers John.
