Here're a couple of ARC's

Capt. FiB (short for Fire Ball) is an ARC Trooper Captain that served during the transition from the Republic to the Empire.  He is struggling with the new regime and the temptation exists that he can leave and join some of his brothers.

Lt. Rii joined the ranks after Geonosis and lacks the connection with his fellow ARC's.  During the transition, he shows initiative and a good sense of leadership.  If not for the accelerated growth rate, Lt. Rii would go farther in the Imperial Military.

Paratrooper Ven fights valiantly at the battle of Dibrae II and is promoted to platoon leader.  He leads his men thru many battles and when Order 66 is issued, he is the first one to fire a shot at their Jedi commander.

Bashla Laii is a Togruta smuggler and has helped bring needed supplies to the Togruta colony of Raiguhr III about 1000 years before Yavin.  Her affinity for the Force has helped her to succeed in many business transactions.  Often she finds herself in situations that may mean life and death for her fellow Togruta.

Arruan Kashiik finds himself at first fighting for his life and the lives of his family and neighbors when marauders raid his village.  He uses a pair of ancient weapons his people called Thraek'tur (Fist of Horns).  He is knocked out and awakens in a cage.  No one from his home is with him.  Other aliens are in other cages lining a large room.  In the days to come he is forced to fight these other aliens with his Thraek'tur.  These gladiatorial are seen by countless gamblers and sports fans.  Eventually, he leads some of the gladiators to freedom during a transport to a new stadium.  Some of his fellow gladiators join him as they too search for their loved ones.  They become mercenaries to fund their venture.

I used a figure that was almost a generic Joe body for females.

Ok, I'm guessing it is the camo body from Cover Girl/Scarlett?  I think they used it for an exclusive fig, Dialtone, that was just that body with an Agent Helix head.

You are correct, sir.  I used that body for a couple of other customs.  This is the first one I painted.  I was considering doing multiple colors on the body but the sculpt doesn't work that way.  What do you think?

Wow, great backstory to the Saessee Tiin Alien. On the front page.

I really like your signature pic too.

I think I'm going to "liberally borrow" your idea, that's what!  I need alien spacers and this approach should be fairly easy...
