For those who like the Darth Grevious (Maul) idea, what about giving him Maul's eyes in these shots?  Maybe make the close-up match the "gun metal" look as well?

 

The gunmetal grey color will lose its grayness from the surounding environment colors.

I can see that; maybe give him a polished silver look? 

I also understand that there is the strong possibility of making the robots (and Grevious/Maul) to come across as alternate Cylons (which themselves were in essence based on Herbert's DUNE "prequel" so to speak), which... come to think of it... wouldn't necessarily be a BAD thing, since one of the things I found to be the weak link in the Prequels was the LACK of any reference to those things that inspired Lucas to make STAR WARS to begin with.

I would gladly welcome any reference to other previous works (sci-fi or other, 20th century or even earlier literary works) provided that said ideas were used well.

PS: If this look doesn't work for (Darth) Grevious, then maybe the other robots could get the "cylon" treatment?
