Description This is my Advanced Recon Commando Beta-34 "Redeye". He is a third generation or "Beta-class" ARC trooper, being of a lesser known and famous group when compared to the Null and Alpha ARC troopers. Known as Redeye because of his Cybernetic eye and its red-colouration. (Having lost his right eye in training due to a faulty training blaster.)

A member of the 53rd Trooper Corps under the command of Jedi General Kev-Mas Colcha. The 53rd would go on to become the 53rd Stormtrooper Legion and would remain under Colcha's command even under the Empire following Colcha's fall to the Darkside and swearing of allegiance to the Emperor.

Redeye however would quickly abandon the Empire, taking an ARC-170 and adopting the name Kel Shima. Fleeing into the Outer Rim Kel would seek out other ARC troopers who had abandoned the Empire as well and would eventually have his advanced aging stopped.

Here we can see Redeye in both his Phase-I and Phase-II ARC trooper gear. With an unaltered mind like all ARCs Redeye had an individual personality all his own. Holding the rank of ARC Captain he adorned his armor with splattering if red, and chose a darker black over the standard white to befit more stealthy operations and a psychological effect on organics within the CIS. He did the same with his hair, dying it red, though this was for more personal tastes than anything.

Why doesn't he seem to have a pauldron in his Phase I armor? Or am I missing it?

But cool picture

because he lacked the pauldron on his phase 1 armor. He gained it on his phase 2.

well then I'll have to either remake this eventually or come up with a reason for it.

Covert op poncho, maybe? They have a hood and they cover most of the armor so I guess a pauldron would be uncomfortable underneath it. Just a suggestion
