No doubt about it, the Star Wars universe just wouldn’t be the same without the shiny white uniforms of the Stormtroopers, but maybe the boss Stormtrooper man could wear a steampunk-themed helmet. You know, just to�differentiate�himself from the crowd. Though this might defeat the purpose. I think the anonymity of Stormtroopers added to the fascist overtone of the Empire. Almost akin to the Nazis and their Aryan�army.
Allusions to history aside, this Steampunk Stormtrooper Helmet is undeniably cool. Just unabashedly awesome. The white becomes bronze, the sterile becomes gritty, clean becomes rusty. So yeah, things would be a little different in the Star Wars universe. Whether for the better or for the worse is for you to decide.
