I repainted those transformer Republic tanks. Not for Clones but for any scifi army. Anyway, thought I would share. Not a big fan of transformers, but the Droid tanks, Republic Gunships and Republic hover tanks go in scale with the WOTC minis. link Tom |

Looks nice. Could we see a picture of them next to a WOTC mini or some other figure for scale? |

Those look awesome!! Well done. They make the originals look absolutely horrible. Do you have any tutorials on how you did them? Thanks for sharing.

I love the new camo paint jobs. I'll bet an urban grey/blue/white/black camo would look equally good. |

Thank you! Basically, I took my black spray paint,then grey primer on one set. Then put camo on the other set using black, green and brown with spray cans. I painted up the the detail using some yellow. Made a few explosion marks using black and silver. Pretty simple stuff. It took me about 3 hours to paint them tonight. Pretty easy.
I will post a scale pic momentarily. Tom |

link Here are some pic comparisons. I had a few miniatures sitting around to use. Here they are with some stormtroopers.
Sorry the pics are not the greatest, it was a little too dark in my game room. But I wanted to post some scale pics for anyone that can use them. Cheers! Tom |

Oh man, those scale up really well and look great! Thanks again. |

They work well with them. I have some other comparison, with what I had, some AT-43 and Battlefield Evolution Marines. Tom |

Tom, global question--how do you store your (obviously) massive collection? I am especially curious concerning the many cool terrain items you have. Do you have just a lot of space or are there some tricks you can share for saving room? |

I have the garage, and many shelves. A lot of them came from where I work. But also under the table is a network of tunnels of terrain. So I a become a tunnel rat when I go hunting for some terrain. I try to get most of the small stuff on the shelves but the bigger stuff goes under the table. I also made a huge wooden box to store my mountain terrain. I have no room left. I made some space this past week selling some star wars toys, but not much. I almost need to make a map of where I put things under the table, because I forget sometimes, and takes me awhile. I lost 4 large greek ships under the table a few months back and found the last week while under the table. Pretty funny. |
