Here is my take on the classic Steel Brigade Trooper in the 25th style.

Let me know what you think.

I like it. What tan did you use, that paint is very crisp, no show through.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it.

The paint is called ''Excel Country'' spray paint, satin finish, the color is cashmere. It took three coats to get the right finish. Suprisingly, the figure is still quite poseable, with no cracking along the joints :-D

That is dead on it, what shade of blue did you use? What figure? What Head?

Thanks for the compliments guys :-)

Here is the recipe:

Torso + arms + head: Duke
Legs: Cobra Air Trooper
Helmet: DTC Steel Brigade 6 Pack
Gun: Modified Marauder NVR Rifle
Backpack: Comic Pack Duke

The blue is Duncan Soft Blue OS585 opaque acrylic paint

I hadn't thought of the gold helmet version, but I am now ;-) Thanks for the idea

OB
