Krath Shocktrooper


05/09/'08: I´ve finished work on my Krath Shocktrooper, which is featured in the Tales of the Jedi comic book series Dark Lords of the Sith. Issue #2 of this 6-part series has a beautiful cover by Hugh Fleming, depicting a Krath Shocktrooper in the heat of battle. I used this image as a starting point, but also an image from the comic itself.








 

The "recipe" for this custom figure is as follows:

- Clone Wars Mace Windu: head, torso

- Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker: upper arms, legs

- TAC Death Star Trooper: lower arms

- Saga/OTC Snowtrooper: backpack

- OTC Lando (Skiff Guard): front end of vibroblade

- Jango Fett (Kamino Escape): missile from jetpack

- plenty of Fixit Sculpt!

You can view a couple of WIP pictures over here, but here you can view the pics of the finished version. Just click on a thumbnail to see a larger image.

 

 And here are some shots of the base and the power backpack and vibroblade:
