Custom Action: Star Wars Shadowtrooper



I knew as soon as a bought a few extra Star Wars Black Series Sandtroopers (at a great Amazon price of only $12 each) that I was going to have to make one of them into some sort of custom.  I figured the quickest and easy one would be one of my personal favorites, a Shadowtrooper.  Nothing too tricky here, I just washed the figure, painted the whole thing gloss black, and applied some silver to the helmet using a silver paint pen.  It was really quick to do and the results are great in person, but photographing black is still pretty tricky for me.

Shadowtroopers were a branch of Imperial shock troopers deployed during the Rise of the Empire era. Shadow Trooper units were deployed on various operations under the command of an Emperor's Shadow Guard. A number of them were used in various skirmishes against Galen Marek. Shadow Trooper armor was laced with durasteel fibers  unlike the stygian-triprismatic polymer material used in the production of the shadow stormtrooper armor.
