Hi Folks,
Haven't posted for a while now and been wanting to get these done this weekend. Hope you like.

These are all GI Joes that I've got plenty of just for customizing. The Alderaan Guard came to mind when I remembered that red was a main color mentioned in one of the X-Wing: Rogue Squadron books. The Corellians' color scheme came from when I was watching Kingdom of Heaven the other night. Some of the crusaders had a blue surcoat over their armor.
The Alderaan Guard were the elite military unit charged with protecting the Royal Family. Along with their royal duties, they would also serve in active military units throughout and outside the Alderaan system. These here are members of the Alderaan Guard centuries before Alderaan's destruction. Left to right: Sergeant Ran Koel, Captain Farinis se Gan, and Private Yek Turon.
Centuries before the Battle of Yavin, the Corellian Xata Warriors were a unit of the Corellian Defense Force. Their history is filled with heroism and many of it's members were recipients of the Corellian Bloodstripe. Lt. Gavid Rens, Private Jo Brev, and Private Mig Narkia were on patrol with eight other members of their platoon when they were hit by marauders on the desert planet Nerin IV. They were the sole survivors with only one marauder escaping off planet.
