Galactic Warfighters
This fella has been doing this a while, not under the radar, just not front and centre. He takes shots from Combat Camera , mostly of Marines, and using them as templates, integrates the shot with Clonetroopers in the Galactic Civil War. Impressive work. Other stuff he does can be found at his site, here

Re: Galactic Warfighters
I'm looking through his stuff now. Oh Jesus this is good. Sleep, who needs THAT shit, eh?
Here's an interview quote:
"Our radios never work. They spent all this time training us, making us, and they couldn't issue us good comms."
And another:
"The men fighting next to me are literally the only family I have. The only family I've ever had. I think that's liberating."
With a massive galactic-scale civil war on, you'd figure the news agencies would be all over it like stink on shit on both sides. Each side would probably not only tolerate it, they'd be encouraging it--the hearts and minds of the people watching at home are as much of a battlefront as the people directly involved in it. So everyone gets their say, their fifteen minutes in front of a holocamera to try explain why what they're doing is right. Every last one of those shots looks like they'd come from whatever version of TIME or NEWSWEEK or whatever online service they've got that serves in that role. Every one of them makes my pulse race just a bit, makes me want to know MORE.
The flagship heroes up top? Yeah, fuck them. I'm not interested in their stories, because we've SEEN those already. This is what I want to hear about. I want to hear from some republic trooper. I don't care if he's a clone out of a tank, he's got a story and it's going to be different from everyone else's. Or a little later in the timeline, an Imperial TIE pilot. How'd he get stuck there in a TIE cockpit? Or that Rebel soldier sitting in that garrison on Dantooine. What sequence of events in her life brought her to that particular planet at that time, and what was she doing yesterday, what does she want to do when her part in the war's done and she can finally go home?
