Star Wars Legion: Death Troopers (Anvilrage Miniatures “Enhanced Troopers” 3D Print)

Star Wars Legion: Death Troopers (Anvilrage Miniatures "Enhanced Troopers" 3D Print)

Today’s Imperial models are 3D prints once again. These Death Trooper proxies are known as “Enhanced Troopers” from Anvilrage Studios. I picked up these models from Garfie’s Games on eBay. These

The Death Troopers wear really shiny armour that’s pretty much in all black. This presented an interesting proposition to paint. I mean, it would have been fair to get them all done in 30 minutes by slapchopping them and then hitting them with some contrastspeedpaintxpresscolourquickgen, but you all know I never take the sensibly quick option for these things!

I used Sonic Sledgehammer’s tutorial as a start and then diverged from there – though I’m sure the glossy armour panels really hide a lot of the work done. It is what it is on that point, I guess! I do have one more squad of these I need to paint in this same black scheme – one of the official FFG sets.

In both contrast and sync with the white-armoured Stormtroopers being led by Vader in black the other day, we here have the black-armoured Death Troopers being led by Krennic in white.

Back to the 3D prints today, though in a slightly different context. This one is a sculpt from Anvilrage Studios, formerly known as SEB miniatures, a sculptor who specialises in models from a Galaxy Far, Far Away. I picked up this print from a fellow on eBay known as Garfie’s Games, who has quite a nice selection of general SW miniatures and SWL-compatable ones as well. And yes, I purchased this figure – and all the other models from him that you’ll see in the future where Garfie gets a mention –  it’s just my normal shout-out to smaller businesses and creators who give good service or are nice people.

The Desert General is very likely a specific proxy for General Veers in Legion, though in this case dressed more lightly for a desert table than the snow. Of course, there’s nothing stopping anyone from just using the model as an Imperial Officer or Operative. Personally, I just always liked the sculpt as it gives off Rommel vibes to me, and so picked it up when I saw it for sale.

In this case, his armour is based on Scout Armour plates rather than Snowtrooper plates as Veers’ armour is – which has now morphed into standard Imperial Army armour of all kinds as seen in Solo, Andor and pretty much everywhere else.

Anyway – another nice little model that I’m quite happy I was able to pick up and even get painted(!)
