Hey now, you can deviate if you really want to. My snowies don’t have a lick of white on them.

Stormies? Eh ok they’re mostly correct but I color coded their shoulder armor to match the leader’s pauldron, and they all are a unique color per unit type.

Sadly, when I tried to do my rebel troopers in a similar fashion, I was a moron and chose... gloves. Do you know how hard it is to determine glove color at tabletop distances?!? 🤦‍♂️

I may just take time to mark the undersides of the base as squad 1-3 for rebel troopers....

This'll be a question for me to ask myself when I get my Rebels going. Would painting the band on the helmets work?

As for stormtroopers, I've seen some cool alternative schemes so that's always an option.

Otherwise I've found Ulthuan Grey to work well for stormtrooper armour rather than White Scar :)

One of the players at my FLGS used band color, but he also painted the same color on the rim of the base. The helmet band color is visible if you make the colors drastically different in my experience.
