Getting back to the Empire Riot Control Squad from Atomic Mass Games, we’re taking on the energy mace troopers today! Once again, I’m a huge fan of this entire box set.
These dudes remind me a lot of the electro mace trooper from The Force Awakens, so having two of them for this squad is pretty cool.
Painting them up wasn’t too bad, either. I went with a straight white undercoat, then used an oil wash to add the shading. The oil wash was two parts Payne’s Grey to one part burnt umber, then a liberal amount of white spirits to dilute.
Energy effects were a blue speed paint over silver, then general white highlights over the whole model after picking out the eyes and helmet rim in black. Some light damage effects on the shields, and I think I’ll call them done!
These guys look pretty cool with the KX Droids!
