FFG is putting their SW license to good use, after the RPG and X-Wing they launched Imperial Assault. Being the SW nut that I am, I ordered the basic game box. I like it so far.


Storm Trooper and Luke!

The minis are medium quality plastic, similar to Mantics Mars Attack. The also share the same amount of mold lines.
I would love to see a dedicated high quality miniature release, resin cast. I really think that the softy plastic with all the mold lines is giving the original sculpt ne credit at all…
The sculpts have a 1990s feel, chunky and more in style to Games Workshop minis. I like them!

Here is the always wanted comparison shot:

Nice work! Did you do anything special for base coating the minis to get the paint to stick or does it take paint like GW plastics do?

Thanks folks!

@ Redroom: I always clean plastic minis with warm water and dishwasher.
After that I followed basically this tutorial:
