I can't wait to get this photonovel up and running.  It looks like it's going to be a lot of fun... and a pain in the ass at the same time.

I dig the droid, but I am on the fence about the Clone Trooper. Not the trooper itself, but the sholder Armor he's wearing. Seems out of place to me. Maybe a flat grey?

The droid is cool, I like how it matches the bug thing. The Clone is okay, I agree with Kev about the shoulders. It makes it look a bit bulky, IMO.

But I'm digging the Tylin! It's awesome! A sneak peek at things to come? ;)

Yep, Tylin's new look is definitely a sign of things to come in the series.

I tend to agree about the Clone.  I was just throwing parts together today.  I could paint the shoulder pads, or just remove them.  They snap right off.

Very cool protocol droid CHEWIE.  It does look like the type of droid that I would imagine the bug guy would have. 
I am going to have to agree about the Clone's shoulder pads - they don't really fit the figure(a little too bulky, as Diddly put it).  Also, I would try to do something with the helmet to change it up a bit.  Maybe throw on a tweaked AT-TE Tank Gunner's upper helmet piece or use a repainted TIE Pilot helmet (that's something that I plan on doing soon, when I have time  ;)).  I think that would be pretty cool.  I like the idea of the shoulder pads, but I think Kevin might be on to something about painting them a different color.
That Imperial Officer is great!  What legs did you use?  I like the BoShek head, he definitely looks like an Imperial Officer from around the time of ANH.  Did you cut the Imperial hat off of Ozzel or is that a cast?

Is the terrible AT-AT walking machine.
It's as big as a house on walking legs,
and whatever it steps on it crushes like eggs.

Greg - The officer is Tylin Gere, he is from the Rykrof Enloe series (you'll be getting that package in the mail soon!) and has been in the series from the beginning.

He was made from an Ozzel body, Ozzel hat (just cut off and glued on) and SAGA TIE Fighter pilot legs. 

I totally agree that something looks off with the Mobile Artillery Clone.  Maybe I could even remove the shoulder pads, and paint the helmet and chest plate black.

 :P

I think that might be an easy fix to the MAC, although I kinda like the inclusion of shoulder pads - maybe you could just trim them down a bit?

So Tylin's been promoted now has he? Good on him!...Sorta. It's kinda bittersweet what with the future of the republic and all. I like the choice of legs; great for poseability. Could that be because Tylin might be seeing some action in a coming chapter?

Yep. Tylin see's so action.

CHEWIE gave me the inside scoup:

Tylin goes to visit Allisa Enloe to see the new baby, and she's been without a man for a while...


Like sands through the hour glass...

Very cool CHEWIE!!

Yam'rii Protocol Droid- I really like the look of this guy. He has some great coloring and the part use is good. How well does he stand? Did you modify the torso at all?

MAC- I think you should keep the shoulder pads, he needs something to make him stand out from other types of clones and Pilots. I think that you should paint the helmet and shoulder armor a greyish color, perhaps something close to the color of a TIE fighter, but a little on the darker side.

Tylin - I really like the black pants it sets him off from other Imperials, but he still looks distinctively Imperial.
