Excellent work Angel, as always. Those purple lasers always bugged the hell out of me, (as do the blue ones from the troopers). It's just adding colours for the sake of it.

Going (slightly) off topic, I like how Ady has made the Ion cannon in ESB:R blue. That has always seemed like a more logical choice to me due to the electrical discharge on the star destroyer when it hits. It somehow looks like a less dangerous laser colour than red or green too, which lends itself well to it being a weapon for immobilising the enemy, not blowing them to bits.

So yeah, blue lasers should be reserved for ion cannons. :)


EDIT: And Bar Bar Jinkx, I totally agree. The clone troopers look so fake to me too, especially in ROTS when we see a closeup shot of an unmasked trooper in his arc fighter (another thing that needs changing to more pre-imperial esque ships IMO)
