Just a quick custom action figure to keep the blog going.  I have a lot of works in progress, but none close to the done stage.  AAAGH!!

So here's an old one I never posted.  I wasn't sure if I liked him or not, but the blog needs a new figure this week and this is going to have to be it ;D

Jedi Master Chi was a true master of Force Speed when it came to hand to hand combat and was an instructor at the Jedi Temple. Master Chi later became a Rogue Jedi who abandoned the Order at the beginning of the Clone Wars. He refused to adopt the role of a general. As he handed in his lightsaber and walked out the Temple doors, he vowed to go wherever the Force led him and never looked back.



THE WANDERING JEDI


Master Chi was created from a Vintage Darth Sidious and the head of an Indiana Jones Mola Ram action figure. The hair is my first ever attempt at using Apoxie Sculpt.

That hair looks great, DD. Looks like you worked that apoxi sculpt like a pro.

Jedi master CHI is cool looking!! Has the feeling of a ROGUE JEDI or Jedi that turned his back on the jedi ways and is out looking for adventure!!

The apoxie sculpt hari is phenomenal dude!! Little piece if advice if u ran into any problems while sculpting it...ALWAYS LET IT SIT for a few minutes to the point where it still bonds but its getting hard, apply and make the shape of the hair NO DETAILS once its cured the apply a little more apoxie and detail the hair its a slow process but it works.

Thanks Mike.  I have been trying to use that technique everytime I use the apoxie sculpt.  I try to create a skeleton first and then go back and build on the skeleton.  Unfortunately, it leaves me with a lot of half finished projects :)

 I gotcha  man, skeletons or shells can be a pain, i like dong it for long haired babes or dudes but when its a short haired charaxter i usually sculpt on the go myself, i have buckled down with certain projects because i see daytons work (SITHFIRE ) and i know the potential of doing 100 times better is there...so hopefully i can start applying more sculpting to certain projects.

Keep up the great work man, you and your son are doing great don't let anything change that!!
