Star Wars Custom: General Veers

[Shadows]

Did I say I was finished with Imperial Officers? Well, I lied, apparently. I was really just wrong, and could kick myself for forgetting the one man that Lord Vader could always count on, General Maximillian Veers.

(you'll notice that the real pic shows his proper rank, while the drawing doesn't, but the drawing gives a good idea of a potential waist area, so I used it)

To say that I was disappointed to buy the newly motorized AT-AT, only to receive a General Veers who wasn't even vaguely accurate would be an understatement. Apparently, TLG wants us to believe that he's nothing more than a normal Imperial Officer, in an AT-ST driver's helmet. HA!

While I can tolerate the helmet choice, that uniform... completely wrong rank, no armour, he's just desperately wrong.

He doesn't have to be, though, not if you print out this decal and make your very own.

No longer will the Imperial AT-AT invasion force be commanded by a wannabe officer impersonating the man himself, oh no, now they can invade in style!

Now, the disclaimer! As is typical with Star Wars, no three images agree on exactly what the full armoured torso should look like. In the movie, it's basically impossible to see far enough down and some portions are just shown too quickly to be helpful. So, after consulting a variety of sources and merging them into something that seems reasonable, I ended up with these.

I kept the belt traditional in the uniform version so he could match other officers on the bridge of the Executor, but gave him a different one for his combat uniform. I still don't know what that thing is supposed to be on the right side (his right). I ended up just making it a sort of modified code cylinder. If anyone has a really amazingly good pic of that thing, please let me know. In some pics, it looks like two things stuck together, in another it has lights. It's almost amusing, and infuriating at the same time. It wouldn't particularly upset me if you wanted to use this torso, but edited out that unknown thing, but I think it will look reasonably appropriate at the right size.

600dpi as always, but no clear/white version. This is strictly intended for a dark grey torso. You could change that, if you had some new idea in mind, it's done just like all my others, for easy colour changes.

Wow, this is starting to sound like a used car pitch. Let's just see the decals... :-$

Would you believe that I was originally going to do the Dengar torso until I realised that it's simply a rip-off of what they should have made for General Veers? Despite the basic similarities, however, this is not suitable for Dengar, even recoloured to brown. It is a completely different decal. I may do the Dengar one later.
