Anakin Skywalker REDUX

Description

What if the prequels were good? And they started with the Clone Wars, really expanding on why Anakin was such a GOOD Jedi (not a whiny brat) and why Vader was so feared. If the whole third movie was Anakin going full Vader before he dons the armor?

I had to entertain the thought and wip up some designs. Re-casting the role of course and aging him up, I thought a really good actor would be Michael Fassbender (when the prequels came out, Fassbender only began his career, who knows if he could have been right at that time but i'm going off his acting chops in the present). The evolution of the relationship between Xavier and Magneto in X-Men: First Class of going from friends to foes is exactly what is needed for Obi-Wan and Anakin. Someone who begins with good intentions and then turns to darker means to achieve their goals and then becomes a full villain, I think Fassbender pulls off and would pull that off perfectly. His scene in Days of Future Past on the plane convinced me; that's the type of rage and fuel that was needed for Anakin when he turns to the dark side. 

Anyways, here are some quick concepts of how I might have imagined it. I didn't intend to re-design Vader's armor at first but I got carried away.
