the Dark Troopers i created are directly modeled after the the final Phase 3 Dark Trooper encountered by Kyle Katarn in the last level of the first person shooter Dark Forces (1995).

In the original Dark Forces video game 3 different types of Dark Troopers were seen. The Phase 3 units are designed to be the most advanced and heavily armored of the 3 types. Dark Troopers were also used in other Star Wars video games like Galactic Battlegrounds and Empire at War.

To give the squad some variety i decided to modify several Dark Troopers with even more heavy firepower, like a flamethrower and multiple rocket launcher unit.

These are just absolute beasts, i love them

[Fuppylodders]

I really like them. I love any form of dark trooper, or sith troopers, and these are done really well.

Im just slightly unsure though, if (to me) the shoulders are too big for the model, or if the heads are just slightly too small (difficult problem to fix though)...?

Awesome! I love Mechs!

Very impressive! I like the variety you've included in each mech.

[Azrielsc]

They look mean as hell!

Would the arms look better closer to the body instead of at the edge of the shoulder guards instead?

But still an awesome MOC!

looks like something from the game Wolfenstein lol

These are awesome, but the legs need to be just a tad thicker.

Thanks for the helpful hints. I actually thought about that too, I was attempting to give the troopers that exaggerated top heavy look, giving them extra wide shoulders combined with a small head and legs.

The overheavy tops make them look more like warhammer 40k and less star wars, but those are some fine "mini"figs nonetheless
