I had them lined up and thought a picture would look nice :3 This pic makes Gregor's helmet look so ugly ;___; It's not really like that.
Oh yeah, I'm redesigning Shadow Squad again. Look out for that within the next few weeks.

I finally finished Zondkar Commando with many varieties of weapons and equipment , worth around 10 Commando name , I took that piece that covered the front of the pelvis and I colored the head with black stripes .
[Log Entry]
As we walked through the catacombs, Blast and Nix took the front, while Sharp and I filled in the rear. I was thinking about that helmet, and what could of killed that trooper so brutally. As we were walking, I heard the mechanical clank of a droid, along with the chittering of a Geonosian. I had no time to warn Blast when a huge half Geonosian, half droid charged in front of him and kicked him in the chest with his metal foot. Blast hit the ground hard, and went limp. Nix ducked behind a rock as the droid slowly walked past. As he did, I realized that the helmet belonged to a Commando, and this must have been the thing that killed him. Sharp quickly drew his rifle, and started shooting. The thing took the shots surprisingly well, as he slowly walked towards us. I finally snapped to attention, and shot him at the same time as Sharp. We hit him directly on his head, which sent him down. I quickly ran over to Blast, and found him still breathing, but his chest armor heavily damaged, and a small amount of blood seeping through. I scooped him up, and we kept walking.

This shot has a really weird angle, mostly because of how big the mechanical wings turned out to be. Do you guys think its not too bad? Also, what do you think of the Geonosian?

Tonight's Net Flicks candidate:
Miami International's compounds were notorious - and mostly inaccessible!
In my case I never got to try so I had to be content with just some brief glimpses from Eastern Airlines Tristar, DC-10 and Boeing 727 cabin windows when flying in and out during a 1980s family holiday
In this shot there's a real mix.
Behind are at least four Douglas DC-6s including N93BL (to the right) plus at the back, are pair of Convair 340/440s
There's a DC-9 tucked in there too but the two stars are a pair of Curtiss C-46's (Commando when miltary) - one is tucked nose-on behind N89BL being front and centre

During the Second World War British Commandos and other specialist forces trained in this remote part of north-west of Scotland - an area that was completely closed off for secrecy.
This memorial, located at Spean Bridge, near Fort William, commemorates the Commandos. This is the area they trained in.
Close nearby is a poignant area put aside for personal tributes to individual Commandos - to those who died in that war but also there are many more modern additions as their deadly job continues.
My photo was taken in "Summer" but if you look closely there are still very small areas of snow on the mountains.

100% Made in France neon lights, alpha male warriors, excessive violence, and bare breasts purely for free: it's the 80s with Commando Ninja, a movie that pays homage to the greatest action-type clichés with whom we grew up to become the degenerate beings steeped in pop culture that we are today.
Check out 80s retro flick "Commando Ninja" on youtube. The whole movie is on there :
The Commando Memorial is a Category A listed monument in Scotland, dedicated to the men of the original British Commando Forces raised during World War II. Situated around a mile from Spean Bridge village, it overlooks the training areas of the Commando Training Depot established in 1942 at Achnacarry Castle. Unveiled in 1952 by the Queen Mother, it has become one of the United Kingdom's best-known monuments, both as a war memorial and as a tourist attraction offering views of Ben Nevis and Aonach Mòr.

The unit has been involved in virtually all of Israel’s major wars, and its operations are highly classified. Shayetet 13 is considered one of the best special forces units in the world, comparable to the US Navy Seals.
Shayetet 13 was founded in 1949 and today is composed of around 300 personnel. Its motto is "As the bat emerges from the darkness, As the blade cuts through with silence, As the grenade smashes in rage."
God bless

A commando droid shield like the one in the "Citadel" Arc. It has another sideways handle similar to the LEGO Knights shields so the droids can also hold it with their sideways hands.
La Ensign Commando, càmera britanica fabricada per Houghton-Butcher, té certes característiques curioses. Fou disenyada durant la II Guerra Mundial com a càmera per al exèrcit britanic, però el conflicte acabà quan amb prou feines s'havia començat a a fer servir. Per tant, Houghton-Butcher la adaptà al mercat civil. L'altra detall interesant és que el mètode d'enfoc no és movent la lent, sino el pla focal. Tota la pel·licula es mou endavant i endarrera contra una planxa tensora. Finalment, aquesta és una càmera de 2 formats, 6x6 i 6x4,5 cm. Però a diferencia d'altres models que necessitaven un marquet reductor extraible (que SEMPRE acaba perdut), en aquest cas el marc reductor de format està format per dues planxes giratories a banda i banda del enquadrament (com si fossin porticons).
L'objectiu és un Ensar Anastigmat f3.5 de 75mm i l'obturador un Ensign Epsilon.
Aquest exemplar en questió és la versió civil del 1946, just després de la versió militar, i és la meva segona Commando, ja que l'anterior tenia diversos problemes (era un model lleugerament posterior). Pels nº de serie de objectiu i obturador (13XX i 9XX) sembla prou inicial dins del periode de producció.
============================================
The Ensign Commando, a British camera manufactured by Houghton-Butcher, has certain unusual features. It was designed during the World War II as a military camera for the British Army, but the conflict ended when it had hardly begun to be used. Therefore, Houghton-Butcher adapted it to the civil market. The other interesting detail is that the focusing is not achieved moving the lens, but rather the focal plane. All the film moves forward and back against a tension plate. Finally, this is a 2 format camera, 6x6 and 6x4.5 cm. But unlike other models that nee a removable frame (which ALWAYS ends up lost), in this case the reducer frame is formed by two integral rotating plates on both sides (as if they were shutters).
Lens is an Ensar Anastigmat f3.5 75mm in an Ensign Epsilon leaf shutter.
This example in question is the civil version of 1946, and it's my second Commando (first one wasn't usable. It's interesing how early seems to be in the production line, as it's lens serial number is only 13XX and the shutter even less, just a 9XX. Camera serial number is a C16XX.

The new Arealight helmets are great so I decided to update one of my old Republic Commando figs.
The helmet shape is spot on in my view. The visor was painted on in layers from dark silver, light silver, blue wash, then light blues for the highlights and edging whilst the blue wash was still wet (blends it better).
Well, my football season ended prematurely, leading to more free time. With my ample time, I realized how distant from the hobby I was. So to make up for spare time, I did something I have always wanted to do, make my own Commando. I bought Star Wars: Republic Commando back in the summer, and I instantly fell in love with the game. This, and the release of Star Wars Battlefront II, revived the drive of wanting to dig out the tools and work with my parts. Also, I just realized that I missed my 7 year anniversary, which has also lead me on a trip down memory lane. I am more than grateful for the relationships and fun I have had on this website, and I hope that this will continue. Anyways, I'm done with the personal stuff, on to the figure.
The figure I have created is based off the basic Republic Commando from the Star Wars Universe. His name and color scheme are based off of my High School Football teams colors, maroon and white. The helmet and backpack were base commando parts from Clone Army Customs. The chest piece, knee pads, shoulder pads, and pouches are made from ProCreate. The crotch and ab pieces are cut from the Spartan Armor from BrickForge. I painted this myself with Apple Barrel and Citadel Paints.
Help me improve him please!

The commando monument near Spean Bridge in Lochaber. Unveiled in 1952 by the Queen Mother. A well known Category A listed monument dedicated to the men of the British Commando forces raised during WWII. Monument sits in a prominent site and looks over the area used for training with the mighty Ben Nevis and Aonoch Mhor as a backdrop. Took this moody shot as the sun was trying to pierce through the clouds. Looks like the statues are looking into the light...
