Thank you, guys! I enjoyed building this Trooper and already planning next project. See you soon ;)

The final assembly was the SD-48 survival backpack. First of all, I assembled all the parts separately and then glued them into one pack. There are some mistakes in the template compared to the IRL pack: Part 132 needs to be placed with the big dial down. The upper parts are placed on the...

Assembled the pauldron and additional magazine pouches. Since this sandtrooper is a commander, he's wearing an orange one. Now it was time to put all the parts together on the body. First, I positioned the pauldron. There was too much of the white back color popping out, so I painted...

After a quick vacation, I'm back to the model. And site is back online The Head The shapes were a little complicated and there were some errors in the details, but eventually, I succeeded in assembling it well. The sequence is: 1. Shape and glue part 32. 2. Glue part 34 to part 46. 3. Glue...

Yes, I know… and the instructions are there. But have some other build threads for reference and almost at final stages, so it’s ok.

Thank you! So, I moved on to assembling the T-21 repeating blaster. It was fun to build. I couldn’t resist adding a couple of tiny scratch-built details: the trigger and the front sight. I made them from spare parts. Next came the hands. Due to the downscaled size of the parts, I removed...

First of all, the figure already above 11 cm, so Revell-Fan you are right - the scale is incorrect. But as I wrote earlier - I'll continue as is to keep consistence The next step was the arms, shoulders, and some armor details on the torso. I glued everything together and assembled the...

Oh boy! I'm so excited that you are going to design this TIE! In series there are a lot of angles and interior sighting, so you have a lot of reference! Good luck. Will watch with interest!

Thanks A small update: I worked on the leg armor and the ammunition belt. Because the ammunition pouches became smaller due to downscaling, I removed the top and bottom flaps and glued the edges together using super glue. It’s a good idea to label each part with its number to avoid confusion...

Thanks, Zathros. I'm flattered My work is not perfect. Try to look on Polish forums. They will blow your mind. But I'm always trying to do my best with patience and determination.

Thank you, Revell-Fan. I didn't know it is incorrect. But I've already built Speeder bike as it is and I hope Sandtrooper will be same scale whatever it is, if my foot compare counts. Just to keep consistence. I'll measure the height when figure will be assembled. And you did a very nice...

What you mean, bigger than it is supposed to be? On site it is stated that the scale is 1:12. After downscaling, I tried to compare by boots and relatively they are the same size.

Next was the lower section of the torso vest and the supports for the leg armor. You need to glue it tightly along the angled edges of the torso so that you can close it properly at the back. And I tried to dry fit it into shoes :) Fits perfectly!

Continued with the legs and torso. Everything still fits perfectly, although you need to think ahead about the order in which you glue the angled sections at the top and bottom of the torso to close it cleanly.
