Now that's what the Stormies should have looked like in ROTJ. Very nice work.

I like. Dorious, just add a poncho or something to break up the interprising troopers outline, and he'll be perfect.

Someone else who saw Join The Empire and realised what a good looking thing a Camoed Stormtrooper is. Nice model, very well done.

But it doesn't show the dirt!

Nice emphasis on the brown, most cammo patters really have too much green.

Umm, the camo looks cool on the trooper, but at the same time it doesn't really fit with the trooper's looks. :?

I think it looks great. Once again, Crix, you and your friends have done a phenomenal job of modeling a solid design and concept.

Was this inspired by the 'swamptroopers' in JKII?

Oh and the thing that looks 'funny' is that the troopers legs look like he is sort of twisting his right one in-wards, sort of like he really needs to go pee, or is being inspected by someone who is scaring the shit out of him.

Looks absolutely fabulous though! Great work!

Looks cool. However, you should give comparison shots of how he looks on the battlefield. Maybe you can show a platoon on Endor. :)

Upon looking at it again...

It needs a few armor changes... regular vanilla (pardon me) stormtrooper armor doesn't cut it. A scout helmet would be good, definately. With a camo poncho, as mentioned before.

It's been done, Go here and download the Join the Empire movie (warning it's at least 25Mb) in there is Camoed troopers in a forest.

Link's dead.

As to the stormtrooper, put it on a white background so we can see it nice and good.

Ditto on the suggestions about the background...make it brighter so that we can see it in full detail. What weapon is the trooper in the second pic carrying, though? Like the bayonet...

Can't fault you, just about everyone thinks that the Troopers should have climate specific camo armour. The JTE troopers have too light a green on their armour, yours works better for temperate or even heavy foilage area's. Have you done a desert version?
