So what say you to Rebel Mini's Titan Marines as Stormtroopers? link |

I'd like to see some Titans with a Stormtrooper paint job. Might be a pretty cool force. RAFM Infantry Pack #3 gets my vote: link Chris K. |

It's the obvious choice, though the EF Magistrates would also be a pretty good fit. rebelminis.com/eafoma1.html Of course, my Magistrates will end up as Mk.II Dead Boy armor instead. |

I was going to sugest the Retainer knights from 15mm.co.uk. all you would need to do is file the nose cones down so they are still a feature but flat, or if your can get those old Micro machine Stormtrooper playsets…. |

I'd prefer the GZG New Israelis in a white scheme for Stormtroopers.
If desired, you could probably even fill in their visors a bit, and make separate eye slits for the helmets, or just paint them on instead. |

I have given this some thought in the past, I was going to use either Khurasans corporate marines
because of their skiny look, and try sculpting the helmets for a head swap, or even just sculpt a mask over the face. Or use Eurekas SciFi Germans linkI think they would make awesome not stormtroopers. Hi Mako – those GZG NI look good to, I have a heap of those in the stash, I may look closer at them. |

I plan to use Khurasan Corporate Marines as Imperial Army:
Converted Rebel Minis Titan Marines as Snowtroopers:
Micro Machines Echo Base Troopers as… well, Echo Base Troopers. They seem to be the only ones from MM range that actually match the 15mm scale (I have imperial and rebel pilots and the Cloud City/Boba Fett set – no matches there)
Last but not least – it's not exactly a 'troop' choice, but cutting the noses (trunks?) from Khurasan Chewks would make for some great Jawas:
And what about the stormtroopers? Well, call it an insanity, but I am going to sculpt them myself :) |

Sounds like a decent plan. Which figs work for Rebel Naval Troopers? GZG OUDF in helmets, perhaps? Other choices? |

I think I neglected to mention that I am lazy, and close enough is my aim… New Israeli for Stormtroopers is an idea I hadn't thought of. |

Lose the crest and these would make great Clone Troopers.

Who makes the dudes with the crests? If you leave the crests and paint them blue they would work as the senate guard (or whatever they were called). |

ACPGames FWB troops make good storms or clones. Just my 2cents. |
