I did this mostly for myself, but I thought maybe, just maybe there is some interest in this.

I got really annoyed by the ugly colour patern on Inquisitorial Storm Troopers ( on the left ) with their metallic camo pants.

So I tried to change the way team colours are applied. ( second ).

Both use the same colours in the same slots but with different patterns, to get them closer to their background designs.

And since I was allready at it I created an alternative skin ( third picture ),
with Inquisitorial runes on the arm protectors (?), golden inscriptions/insignias on the collar and a purity seal on the right shoulder.

The seal, the collar and the "=][=" runes are all team colourable in two colours and tied to the second and forth colour slot.

At the very end ( 4th pic ) an idea for an alternative ST skin for guard to make both units more distinctive.



Any feedback / interesst?

Rad as all get out.

I love the 2nd one as a way of avoiding the 1st. I think the Inquisitorial design is awesome and relevant to the interests of GK players everywhere, and the last one just looks like a badass modern soldier. So my vote is: Great work all around. :D

I like it! Did you change the _tem.dds file? If so would you mind posting your changed version? Mostly just cause I'm curious and all

Yes, the first version is just using adjusted tem-maps.

The seond one usses custom textures, spec and normal maps too.

I had to make a few adjustments but if interessted you could download them here
( to the right would be a download button )
