February's BSF Stormtroopers & Loyalty Rewards - Everything You Get!

Hello Patrons,

It's time for the full gallery of parts and multi-shell breakdown!

British Space Force Stormtroopers

In the images below, you can see that we've highlighted certain elements in bright orange, blue, green, etc (and you'll see similar images in many of our previous releases too!), and various images say "multi-shell" on them.

These colours mean that each highlighted element is actually a separate "shell" - a complete 3D object that it is possible to move, scale, interchange, or even remove entirely! Want to know how? We've got a few excellent text and video resources for you to check out;

Full written instructions of how to use Multi-Shell features in both MeshMixer and Blender can be found here.

Sonic Sledgehammer's Video Tutorial using MeshMixer.

And finally, an in-depth Blender Tutorial that covers advanced movement and manipulation of individual shells, as well as a whole lot more if you're interested!

First up, we've got Bearskin caps and high-tech gas masks! Your stormtroopers have the option of multiple different variants of cap, feathers, and decorative rope braid. We've kept pretty much everything as a shell here, so you can customise to your heart's content! There's also pith helmet, and parade cap variants, for a slightly less ostentatious look.

For the stormtroopers, we have combined the legs and torsos for a more cohesive look. Each body comes with a few shelled shin plates, and then is divided between a plain version, and 4 with different styles of backpack - that's 50 different combinations! - with each of the backpack variants being shelled onto the body, reducing gaps. For you digital kitbashers out there, now you have the chance to add a seamless specialist weapon backpack onto any male Regiment's torso.

Here's the reverse for each of the different styles of backpack. There's the plain one, without any special equipment, and then one for ion weapons, phase, flamethrowers, and a vectored jetpack!

The jetpack backpacks are also provided as separate accessories, with various different positions for the exhaust nozzles. The backpack frame is also kept as a separate shell here, allowing you to digitally kitbash anything onto it in place of the jetpack, and have it fit comfortably onto any Regiment's torso with space on their back!

The stormtrooper captain features a unique helmet - comprised of over a dozen different shells! - a more striking pose, complete with shelled tactical rock, a cape and sabre scabbard, and a reworked version of our powered punch-fist, now with everything as a separate shell! If you've ever wanted a custom pose for your armoured gauntlet, then now is your chance!

Your regular troopers are all equipped with Regiments specialist weapon joint receivers, compatible with any specialist weapon "uppers" we've released in previous months, our cast-resin range, and any we might plan to release in the future! There's also a set of open wrist arms to use with some of the other weapons found below. Each specialist arm pair comes with a shelled specialist "lower", and fuel cables. We've also provided the same arms set without the cables too, which allows you to pair up the specialist weapons without needing the backpack port.

 To fill out the specialist uppers you have to choose from, here are three new options; an ion rifle, a phase rifle, and a flamethrower!

For your open-wrist arms, you'll have the option of a pair of heavy pistols, both phase and .75 cal, as well as two different high-tech sabres. There's also an ornate shoulder pad featuring a regal bird of prey.

Finally, we've also included a new Man-Portable heavy weapon and paired arms! You'll have a new heavy double-phase cannon, the power cable of which, can attach to any of the specialist backpacks included in this month!
