I will have some WYSIWYG conflicts that may have simple fixes. I covered the windows of the rhinos simply because I didnt like the "batman" eye cover feeling it had and styrene was a simple way to do it. I also tried different thickness of acrylic rods but they are very expensive to have colored red. I looked at the neon toothpicks but couldnt find a good red to go with. They are all magnetized so they can be swapped/stored easily. I am not sure I am too satisfied with the lego lightsabers.
Although I am thinking of having the second batch of 5 termies painted in the more tradional red robes/armor. The Imperial Shadow Guard and their Lance-Sabers seemed to fit quite well with Terminators. Fortunately Vader did experiment with Force-Sensitive Stormtroopers so this did lend itself to be the basis for power/force weapons on SM Sergeants. I really liked the idea of a clone force but there were a lot of mash-up conflicts between the Star Wars and 40k universes. I did have chessex make several dice with the Galactic Empire Symbol on them to keep the theme present. I did toy with the thought of using Galactic Empire decals on the vehicles but after seeing how awesome the vehicles were the possibility of unclean edges of the decals didnt seem worth it. His pictures seem to be link broken but I gleened the idea of using the Star Wars Miniatures heads from the Dark Troopers on SM bodies, using the Empire Battle Wizard as the Emperor, and the Dark Angel Veteran body for Darth Vader. It was an interesting conversion based off of some groundwork done by Paulson Games' previous post from 2009. Thanks guys! A great job by Next Level Painting!
