Republic Assault Ship

This is one of my largest creations ever! I have spent 4-5 hours building this ship. I used my Star Destroyer to build this. This ship is from the Clone Wars, as you can probably tell. It (my moc) can hold several clone troopers, a BARC speeder, and some "medical supplies".

Mini Republic Cruiser

This is a mini model of the Republic cruiser seen in many Clone Wars episodes. It is a very detailed mini as you can see in the photo.  A trick which I have learned over the years, is that if you want to capture the detail in anything, you have to use small pieces over the basic design of the model. Any suggestions for something you think I could build? Please put it in the comments.  I will try to build it and post it as soon as possible. Thank You!

Underwater Assault Craft

Underwater assault crafts were used by the Separatists during the Battle of Kamino. They can hold up to ten droids in the quick deployment rack. I believe the design of this vehicle is based on a squid. This was a neat thing to build and used a lot of brown pieces. Each of the leg segments are jointed so it's legs can bend any which way. I'm not sure that "underwater assault craft" is the actual name but it is used by Ventress in "Arc Troopers".

Clone Riot Trooper

Clone Riot Troopers were used on Courscant to control riots and often worked with the local police to help apprehend dangerous criminals. This was an easy trooper to build.  However, I did build several different riot shields before I finally decided on the one seen in the photo. The non-lethal stun baton is a dark-gray lightsaber blade with a technic piece on the end. I have built two of these interesting troopers.  If you have any ideas/advice/comments, please share them!

Shadow Guard

Shadow Guards are an elite group of force-users that the Emperor used to carry out secret missons. Nobody knows who the guards are, but it is believed that they are brainwashed Jedi that were captured and trained in the dark side of the force by Palpatine himself. Shadow Guards often work along with a pair of shadow troopers, so that while a shadow guard is dueling his opponent the two troopers will de-cloak and shoot at the target while the guard finishes the target off.  They are equipped with a deadly Saber-Staff, and they also know how to use Force Lightning.

Imperial trooper/ battlefield medic

I don't know very much about this trooper but it is very easy to replicate using LEGO minifigure parts.  I have noticed something interesting that may or may not be
true; the AT-ST (all terrain scout transport) pilots look similar to Imperial troops without the body armor. One other nugget of information is that General Veers has a modified version of this armor.

Imperial Escort Carrier

Imperial Escort Carriers are exclusive to the Imperial Storm commandos. They often carry TIE Hunters and
occasionally a platoon of Elite Stormtroopers. The Imperial Escort Carriers are very deadly to small - medium sized starships.

Weapons/Equipment: miscellaneous blaster cannons, escape pods, special crew.
