RP Rank: CPT Ordo
Suggestion: What I really want to do with this suggestion is to flush out and personalize some of the members of Null. Currently, All of the LT's of Null (Kom'rk-Jaing-Mereel-Prudii) really don't have any difference between the models, as well as don't fully express their type of characters. Null have amazing and diverse personalities and I believe that should also reflect in the in-game models and bodygroupers. I believe this would bring a ton more attention to the squad, as well as boost morale for the current members as well.
I also want to suggest some minor tweaks and additions to all the models. This is really to give them more character and uniqueness compared to the their fellow clones, and Alpha Counterparts.
Implementation: Changes to the current models on the server (Include the Clone Phase 1 Armor for Jaing-Mereel-and Prudii as well as Minor Tweaks to all Phase 1 armor sets). I also want to tweak the current Mando/Beskar Models as well. These changes will be expressed in the below sections, and will be separated by each suggested change.

If you are asking to add or change a job, fill out the following if not, leave it out.
Add or Change: All Null (Clone Armor)
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job: Null Jaing | Null Ordo | Null A'den | Null Kom'rk | | Null Prudii | Null Mereel
Suggestion: Add The Mythosaur/Skirata Mandalorian Crest onto the Right Shoulder Pad for Each model
Reasoning: Null are a very proud and loyal group of Clones to their father, Kal Skirata. The Nulls Cherish and heavily follow their Mandalorian Heritage and Traditions, so It would make sense for them to show it on their clone armor. "After talking him down, Skirata took the six ARCs to his housing and named them - Ordo, Mereel, Prudii, Jaing, Kom'rk, and A'den - and taught them about his Mandalorian heritage.[1]" - From Null-Class ARC Lore Page (https://clonetrooper.fandom.com/wiki/Null-class_Advanced_Recon_Commando). As you can tell, The Nulls cherish and value their Mandalorian teachings that Kal taught them.
Now, Clan Skirata, which is the Clan that the Nulls were adopted into, Didn't have an official crest (i.e. the symbol above). However, if they dev team wanted to use these fan made crests they could as well.

Add or Change: All Null (Mando/Beskar Armor)
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job:Null Jaing | Null Ordo | Null A'den | Null Kom'rk | | Null Prudii | Null Mereel
Suggestion: Add the Ability for the Nulls to switch between a Pure Black Visor to a Blue Glowing Visor (Like their republic commando counter parts) On their Beskar/Mandalorian Armor sets. Also The Jayarr Models (I.E models/jayarr/null/aden.mdl) are very unplayable. So, We are wanting to see if the Guac Models (i.e. models/guac/ordo.mdl) Can be more fleshed out and detailed for more use. The Jayarr Models have some flaws to them (I.E Massive Shoulder Pauldron, Bad Hitbox, as well as Chunky in appearance). Main things to help fix the Guac model are: Making to where we can actually edit body grouper, Detailing the Color Palette, and maybe some slight touches to the hitbox.
Reasoning: This will be for the Visor suggestion. Nulls were considered "Black Ops" Commandos. This would mean that they would have many of the tools that your typical clone commando would use. One of those tools would be a updated/enhanced HUD Display. " HUD (Heads-Up Display) within their helmets. The HUD allowed them to control armor functions, display tactical information, and highlight enemies. " - From Null Class Arc Page. Seeing as The Null's probably had this on their Clone armor, they would definitely integrate it into their Mandalorian Beskar armor. This would then allow for their visors to be able to switch from Pure Black to Glowing Blue.
Examples:
Model:
models/guac/komrk.mdl | models/guac/mereel.mdl | models/guac/ordo.mdl | models/guac/prudii.mdl | models/guac/aden.mdl | models/guac/jaing.mdl <--- Guac Models

Add or Change: Prudii
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job: Null Prudii
Suggestion: Add a Stealth like coating to the white parts of his phase 1 clone armor
Example:
Reasoning: Prudii was a wizard when it came to technology and engineering. Here is a snippet from his Lore page, “ He wore specialized ARC trooper armor with stealth coating that couldn't be detected by droids, thus enabling him to enter droid factories unnoticed.”. Prudii wore specialized armor, which would cause his armor pieces to change in color, and material. One of the main reasons, And this will kinda go for all the ones Below, is I kinda what these 4 to have some distinction/personality to them. Currently, all 4 of the LT's (Jaing, Mereel, Prudii, and Kom'rk) All legit share the same model string. So their isn't any clear why to disinguish between who is who. So, I think giving a stealth coating to Prudii's armor would be a great addition to him.
Here is an example of a stealth coating I found: Similar to this Hexagonal Pattern. With a neutral/Dark gray color and a silver hexagonal pattern
Another example could be just to change the color from white, to a Matte Dark Grey.

Add or Change: Jaing
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job: Null Jaing
Suggestion: Add the Mythosaur/Clan Skirata sigil on Jaing's chest, as well as a Tattoo on his face. For his armor, add Scratches to his helmet, as well as the Kaminoian Skin gloves to his clone armor.
Reasoning: Jaing was the more sophesticated/dedicated to his job unlike the other Nulls. He was very proud of his Mandalorian heritage (I.E the Tattoo on his face), as well as the sigil on his chestplate. Jaing Also did Kill and Dismember Ko Sai, and fashioned gloves off of their body. "Following the disappearance and consequent discovery of a dismembered Kaminoan cloning scientist, Ko Sai, Jaing sported a fine pair of grey-skinned gloves, made from the Kaminoan who had committed suicide in Kyrimorut on Mandalore." - From Jaing's Lore Page. I thinks these additions would add a great layer of personality to Jaings Character, and distinguish him from his Null Brothers.
Examples:
Fan Art of Jaings Face Tattoo (Unable to find Lore to Back it)
Jaing is seen on Top Right, Sporting the Sigil on his Chest and Scratch marks on the helmet, Fan Art (Unable to find Lore to back it up)
Model: models/jayarr/null/all_p1.mdl

Add or Change: Mereel
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job: Null Mereel
Suggestion: Make his Clone Armor More Battle Scared / Faded Colors All Around. Add a Heavy Bandolier around his Chest
Reasoning: Mereel was the more Reckless/Daredevilish of the group. He liked to live life on the edge, and in doing so would probably not take very good care of his armor “Mereel was frequently described as a "daredevil lunatic," a trait that often caused his "father" and brothers anxiety. He sought out thrills, purposely skating on thin ice in everything from negotiations with techs to piloting and rapid-roping. Kal noticed that Mereel seemed to feel the need to take risks and excel in order to edge out of Ordo's shadow.”. - From Mereel’s Lore Page. I think with how Reckless he is, then the changes to his armor would be very accurate. For the Bandolier, Mereel is the heavy weapons expert for the squad, so adding a Bandolier to his kit would make a lot of sense.
Example:
Mereel is to the right of Jaing. You can see his armor painting are very Faded (Unable to find lore to back it up)

Add or Change: Kom'rk
(Any job modification requires all this information)
Job: Null Kom'rk
Suggestion: Add a Medic Symbol somewhere on his armor, as well as Medical supplies.
Reasoning: Kom'rk doesn't really have a lot of lore to find any items/behavior to distinguish him from the others. The only thing that is their, is that he is very quiet, and only really talks to the other Nulls. as well as to whoever he is interrogating. However, he is the medic for the group, so added these would definitely help in giving personality and distinguishing him from the other nulls.
