There he is, not hard to find. He looks just like Ed Harris.

And here are pics of the Nulls (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Null-class_Advanced_Recon_Commando). Again, easy to find.

Wow.
I had no idea kal'buir looked like that.
Well I guess he is dar'buir in Triple Zero...

Kal'buir.
Papa Kal.

About half way in the book, he is names Bar'buir.
No longer father.

I'm shocked.

sorry the edges are a little sloppy. i'll try to make it better after i get to work on Lone. thanks for giving me the idea to use symbols... that is really fun and i think it looks pretty cool, and i think i will do it more often!

Although I would've liked the symbol a bit larger, the edges are fine. Nice job on the visor, too -- no offense, but the visor colors you did before were sloppy. Where is the picture you're basing the commandos off of?

alrighty i'll get to redoing yours after i do these next few requests... which ones had sloppy visors (no offense taken, i appreciate constructive critism, just so long as you're not saying "that sucks" for no reason)?

here is Lone:

if he doesn't mind, Lord Rengal can take this one. I feel like making my own commando, and i'm gonna try and make it really cool but it will probably take a long time, especially since the weekend is almost over and i will have less spare time until friday night.

alrighty, i know someone is going to tell me not to double post, but it seems appropriate here (it doesn't make sense to write this as if i wrote this and my previous post at the same time, and i think this one deserves its own post). i am REALLY proud of these commandos (i reworked some really crappy camouflage commandos i had made a few weeks ago with new techniques i am learning)... hope you guys like 'em!

The first few you did on page 5 were kind of sloppy and slapped-together, but you did better with the visors and stuff after that. :) Again, could you show me the picture you're basing the commandos off of?

aww man that second lone is really good TXH-1138! Extremely good job!

I think this is the one i usually use to make custom commandos, but i know we both will also modify bodies from other commandos and layer them and such if necessary (cut and paste).

http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/9558/modelcommandoyb1.png) (http://imageshack.us)

Yea and RCJango I'll take that request i guess, though TXH-1138 has had some really good commandos of late. ill try, and if you dont like it, im fine with that, and im sure TXH-1138 might give it a try

i am liking that avatar and signature! here are the ones i base my newer commandos off of... and as a sidenote, for these newer ones i have given up cutting and pasting just because its hard to make the lighting and stuff blend, so i have learned its really better to make it all on my own:

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/3841/standardunitpw9.png) (http://imageshack.us)

and here is a quick change to the Lone pictures (i looked at the helmet and realized it looked kinda bare):

custom commandos? thanks. you can use them if you want i only just came up with them (only the Lone pics and the Camouflage Commando pics are products from them). i think i will redo Echo with them, just to see if i can make it look cooler. just so people know, Lord Rengal and i can only do DC-17 attachments as weapons, and we cannot do rebreathers or sniper packs or that kinda of thing. we can try, but just know they probably wont look to great.

i'd like to tell people i make these with paint. i think Lord Rengal has a link to the program we're using, which you can download free (or at least the demo version. you have to pay for the real one, which we didn't).

hows about using this as your signature pic (i added some blur and color effects to yours, after i tried to center it a bit [no offense, it just looked kinda lopsided to the right on your current one]):

http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/503/echodecalak3.png) (http://imageshack.us)

or

http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/5355/echodecalok8.png) (http://imageshack.us)

also, i still use paint to cut/paste images together (that's how i put the symbol on Echo), and also the program we use saves in a weird format that like, no computer can open, so i always save my pictures via paint. and finally, here is the new Echo (i don't really know if its nessecarily better, but the coloring kinda catches my eye a little more, and with the new techniques i am using, the details of the armor itself are more apparent):

I like this one better than my current one, although I might use the new and improved Echo instead of the old one.

WOO! Amazing! The symbol is perfect, and the dull gold-brown is much better. :D :D

really? i thought the helmet of the old one was the only thing that didn't make the new one all around better, just because (even though the symbol was small) the symbol looked cooler on the tips, how it kinda slants in. i am really having trouble with the roman commando, so could someone please give me a solid description of what they want? and here is one i just made for fun when i was bored:

i get to that right after the other, which i start... NOW

k i'm kinda stuck... what does this "black&red body helmet like scar and phoenix" mean? i did some work on it up until that point, so i'll wait for you to elaborate before i continue. in the meantime, i'll start on ARC.

2)Similair to wreaker but red visor and more darker
3)DC-17m Normal
4)instead of orange use red and armor is mostly black, matte grey with Blood on helmet.I am going to make it as a costume and was needing a picture of my idea, can u do that 4 me?

here is ARC. now i'll work on RC-1191, IF you tell me how you're going to make that costume (nah, i'll do it anyway, i just want to know how you plan to do it cause i tried once to make stormtrooper armor and it SUCKED).

http://img531.imageshack.us/my.php?image=arcbn1.flv)

i can't figure out how to post it on the page (its a movie). i made it because i don't know if i should make it with a capital Omega symbol or lowercase, so i did both with it fading from one to the other. here are the individual images:

http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/3301/arcrn7.th.png) (http://img525.imageshack.us/my.php?image=arcrn7.png)http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/96/arc2jk8.th.png) (http://img125.imageshack.us/my.php?image=arc2jk8.png)
the pictures will enlarge if you click on them

im sorry that the material beneath the armor isn't silver like you asked... i can't figure out how to color that without it looking dumb, and i've been experimenting with it a LONG time.

My uncle is an artist and i will have him sculpt out the armor pieces in pieces of 2(front and Back) with all the details and i will use the vaccum forming process to make the peices and i will put the peices together and put snaps on the inside to hold them together. i did find some cool helmets people made at www.starwarshelmets.com) under fan made helmets- clone troopers but they aren't selling them so i have to make that too. they even mounted blue LEDs to make it look real, even a blue spot lamp. my guy is supposed to look dark and evil if possible add some blood on the armor i don't care where. U should try http://www.tk560.com/stormtrooper.html) for more info on the stormtrooper armor.
