Stormtrooper Unit Leaders

Stormtroopers were the infantry soldiers of the Galactic Empire. The members of the Imperial Army’s Stormtrooper Corps served on the frontline as elite shock troops, and their loyalty to the Empire was absolute as a result of their training. The stormtrooper armor that they wore consisted of white plastoid plates over a black body glove, and their standard weapon was the E-11 blaster rifle.

In the Star Wars Legion box you get fourteen Stormtroopers, eight (regular) Stormtroopers, four heavy weapons and two unit leaders.

The unit leaders are armed with a blaster pistol.

After constructing the Imperial forces I stuck them to their bases. Like my Rebel Troopers I have been using Citadel Sand for the bases of my Star Wars Legion Imperial Stormtroopers.

The next stage will be a white undercoat. I did think about doing a black undercoat. Storm troopers appear to be wearing black with white armour plates. Giving the models a white undercoat doesn’t stop me from painting them (all) black, but I think I will try and avoid that.

I gave both Unit Leader models a white undercoat using Corax White spray.
