While at Target the other day I found a new star wars toy line called Star Wars Commander.  The pack comes with an assortment of larger figures, around plastic army men sized as well as an AT-ST.  It ran me $9 to for the pack.  It was a shame there didn't have multiple in the pack but I have paid more than that for a single vehicle.  I don't game star wars but I as certain I could convert it for my 15mm Scifi gaming anyways.

 
As with any conversion project, I dug around in my assorted bits boxes and dug out all the possible parts I could imagine would work and proceeded to see what looked right.  I quite like the base shape of the walker so I didn't want to radically change the shape of it but I did want to bulk it out a bit.  I prefer my miniatures to be on the larger size when possible.

For this conversion I ended up only using a few pieces;

Khurasan Earthdoom Powerarmour Backpack
ClearHorizon - Drop Pod Door, Hydraulics, and Hatch
GW Vehicle Missile Launcher Cover 
HO Scale vent
Khurasan GOTA troops
Bandaging Gauze 





Here it is finished waiting to be based.  It is currently attached to the peg base it comes with but I will be adding it to a washer for more stability and to match the rest of my stuff.  I will also be adding a few decals once I get them.

I added the red "eye" to the front to match the rest of my drones for the force.  Netting and troopers painted to match the ground forces as well.  It was pretty painless to convert and thankfully my sloppy painting doesn't look too bad up close.  I am planning on getting at least one more but would like to make it a trio if possible.

ACTION SHOTS!!!





Thanks for looking

Took me three months but I found the right material to start my refugee camp.
First recon photo of camp…


I am currently looking to sell my production rights, masters castings, and stock (as is left) of my line of 28mm Workforce Heroes. 



   These hard working men wearing hardhats and jumpsuits can easily be at home in; Modern, Zombies, Scifi, or Superhero gaming!  They were sculpted by Mark Evans for me back in 2009.

There are four single pose miniatures offered(one with alternate spanner or shotgun handsets)
as well as a set of 5 conversion heads.

Only one of the above was ever officially released and it was sold through  Recreational Conflicts - http://recreationalconflict.lusagi.com/ for a number of years.  Site photo posted below.

I do have remainder stock of the this miniature as well as the shotguns and spanners needed for it and would like to sell it as well.
