Imperial Remnant for Star Wars Legion - How I Paint Things

Ойындар

If pristine, showroom Stormtroopers aren't your style, and you want to play Star Wars Legion with something a little unique, consider the Imperial Remnant. The Empire didn't disappear overnight with the death of the Emperor, after all, and those holdout groups on the outer rim maintained at least nominal Imperial rule before the gradual rise of the First Order.
This figure can be found in the Remnant Trooper Bundle from Skullforge Studios, here on Gumtree: skullforgestudios.gumroad.com... Follow the links on their store to find their Shapeways page if you haven't got your own 3D printer, but don't want to miss out!
I printed mine on an Elegoo Mars 2 Pro using the Elegoo Water Washable Ceramic Grey resin. 30 micro layer height with a 2.2s exposure time for each normal layer got brilliant results, but as always, be sure and perform a few calibrations as every machine and print area setup can mean needing minute adjustments.

    The whole pack is just really well designed in that respect. The sculptor took the concept art and ran with it for some combat poses, too. It's fascinating to see how 3D printing opens up the possibilities for 'small scale' sculptors doing stuff like this!

    I love the theme of the Remnant being flipped as the new rebel/resistance. Something we haven't seen explored I don't think since the Jedi Knight games. I also love the paint job by the way. It's just making me want to paint up some Imperial Remnant's myself.

    The Empire on the back foot - beaten but not defeated - and still a power to be reckoned with in its fading days would be an amazing playground for some really interesting stories in the Star Wars universe. I'm reminded of something my history teacher used to say, "Empires don't fall; they become something different." From Rome to Byzantine and so on, taking that route with the Galactic Empire would make for some fascinating tales.

    ​@@SonicSledgehammerStudio Imperial agents, inserting themselves into the senate or sewing themselves into planetary governorship. Small strike teams sabotaging planets and supply lines to disconnect them from the New Republic. I definitely relish this idea as you refer, these things often take place in reality as well. It would 100% make Star Wars even deeper to see these ideas fleshed out, imo.

    Cool mini, we could compare these scruffy imperials to the (very) late war germans, when they had to rely on every kind of uniform was on hand. It's a pity no one tought of making some plastic boxes for this saga.

    This looks fantastic, from the sculpt to the finished paint job. It's tempting to buy these minis and kitbash them with a Rebel Alliance squad for the latter's army, akin to an army of Imperial deserters.
