In SWG the swamptrooper character is basically a TB that is painted an OD green or a camo pattern in shades of OD and green. In Jedi Knight 2 Jedi Outcast the swamptrooper is a custom model that appears to be mostly modified TK parts or completly origional ones; again painted in the green camo... some good ideas for the pain scheme would be to base it off of the camo from the Kashyyyk clones. For those who want to make a JKII swamptrooper here is a link that gives you a good side view. Swamptrooper Refference I have absolutly no skill when it comes to vaccing plastic or creating molds but I do have a good eye for detail and will help in whatever way I can. Good Luck Troopers.

Wanted to find out, I do realize this is an old post, what you ment by "legal under EU". I tried getting approved with the Camo Biker, everything meets 501st standards as a Biker just not the color, and I was told it was not a 501st approved costume. Love the work with the Swamp Scout, is that one 501st approved yet? And I see the pic shows a Grey knee armor, wouldn't it have looked better as Green like the rest?
