Tri-Droids

Besides the well-known Mygeeto variant of the huge Tri-Droid walker, I finally finished the Tri-Droid which will appear on Christophsis. Below a short pic, click on it for the full vid, which is terrible lagging and quality (pc can't handle recording!)
This Tri-Droid has a beam/laser cannon instead of devasting rockets, as seen on Chris. This laser is red in the upcoming version, instead of blue as in this vid. Also, the Droid is slightly smaller than the original one!

And below, the normal Tri-Droid which will be on Mygeeto; Masabre Bridge (the map from the vid above)

I said blue. It really depends on the map it will go in though, to fit the environment.

In THIS map brown.

If your planning on putting it in Christophsis, I'd go with blue for that one.

Brown. Seems more realistic.

OFF-Topic: Dang it's been awhile since I've been here...January I think.

I voted for brown since in ROTS, its first appearance, it was brown. :)

I agree, but if you're only doing one color go brown.

Brown one goes well on Mygeeto but I bet the Blue one will look good on some maps too.

But I like both of them blue looks better on Chritophsis and brown looks better on Mygeeto

I think that the brown one looks better. Besides, is teh blue one even canon? I don't remember seeing a blue one on Christophsis... And I thought everything except ZERO Squad and Cyber Maul were supposed to be canon in this?

Please stop these discussions now. A blue variant was found on Chris, as already said, the brown one was found on Mygeeto, and i guess also other planets.
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Tri-droid wrote:The tri-droids were enormous tripedal war machines used by the Techno Union and the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars.

On the planet Christophsis, tri-droids saw action under the command of Whorm Loathsom, covered in blue markings of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Near the end of the Clone Wars, during the battle of Mygeeto, tri-droids were used against Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi's Galactic Marines, decimating front lines.

Following the execution of the Separatist Council by Darth Sidious's new apprentice, Darth Vader, these units were de-activated.

Yes, this was never the question, that's why i wonder where all those comments came from. I just wondered which skin you guys prefered, not looking at planet or whatever other condition! :P
