501st Clone Troopers


Squads of 501st legion clone troopers in Phase II armor with blue markings. The troopers of the 501st fought in many battles, such as the Battle of Teth and the Battle of Coruscant, becoming one of the most well-known legions.





In the Grand Army of the Republic created during the Clone Wars, a standard clone trooper squad consisted of nine soldiers, led by a commanding sergeant, while the elite clone commandos of the Special Operations Brigade operated in squads of four, such as Delta Squad or Omega Squad, with five such squads forming a troop.

I've swapped out the shorter blaster carbines with the longer blaster files and am looking for a suitable heavy blaster for the squad's use.

Doctor Finklestein lives in a large observatory with his living rag doll creation Sally and his hunchbacked assistant Igor. James Whale's Frankenstein is quoted in Finklestein's line "I made you with my own hands" which is ironic as Finklestein's body appears to be largely if not entirely artificial. Unlike Frankenstein who takes no responsibility for his creations and disowns them almost as soon as they are completed (much like the original Dr. Frankenstein), Finklestein takes full responsibility over Sally and acts as an over-protective father and in some ways an overbearing husband (thus explaining Sally's attempts to run away) by keeping her under lock and key under the pretext of shelterin...

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!
