Star Wars Saga RPG

Yeah, you read that title right, I've been playing and occupying myself with the older Star Wars Saga RPG.  

We're running a campaign that's set post-Order 66, not long after Darth Vader was saved.  I decided on a Kel Dor Jedi, a former Padawan on the run when his Master was killed in a Vader ambush.

From a modeling perspective, there really isn't any good models out there to portray a Kel Dor.  Knight Models (from Spain) has a Ki-Adi-Mundi model that's a good starting point to model one.
Here's a Jedi Master from the Clone Wars cartoon.
This is a model that I've thought about as a starting point.  It is a nice model, but the work to modify the head may be extensive.

This model is another candidate.  Modifying this one will also be extensive. However, the pose is closer to what I want, and the armored plates give him a look that's more in line with my image of a post-Clone Wars Mercenary (née Jedi) look.
