This is Commander Appo from episode III. I'm a big fan of clone troopers and thought they looked awesome in this film. I, as many fans of star wars are, a big fan of the 501st legion and think that their armour looks great in this film. I decided to make Appo after i read "Dark lord: The rise of Darth Vader" where he plays a big part as commander of the 501st legion also known as "Vaders fist". He is briefly seen in episode III when Vader leads the assault on the jedi temple. I thought i would add the shoulder pauldron as this was not on him in the film but signifies his leadership as with most clone commanders, captains, etc... I used a blank white mugg which was helpful for the smooth white which is the majority of clone armour. I added battle damage as many clones have on their armour from the many battles of the clone wars. I thought a 501st clone would be a good idea after i recently bought Commander Cody and a Shock Trooper. In terms of symmetry and design that was the hardest aspect as much care was needed on the helmet and torso. I liked doing this one and may do another clone trooper soon.
