I've been wanting to do that exact mash-up for quite some time but never could get my hands on the sassae tin figure with that helmet!

Alien Mandos are always a welcome sight, and you did a great job on the paint apps.
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: Phatty on October 31, 2011, 08:54:12 AM
Very good looking work, my friend.  That helmet is perfect, and great use of colors for sure.  On the front page!
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: CloneSniper78 on October 31, 2011, 09:00:03 AM
I always thought that helmet looked more Mando than Clone. Great idea.
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: Darth Optimus on October 31, 2011, 09:06:51 AM
Cool! I like yours more than mine.  Nice choice of colors and paint apps.

I now give u number two in my 2011 collection. My version of Demagol. Handmade jetpack added.
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: DocOutlands on November 15, 2011, 09:28:20 PM
Nice work on both these!  I finally got ahold od a second Tiin in armor fig just so I could up a Mando like that - but yours is finished and mine is still sitting there waiting on me to figure out how I want to fix him up...

Demagol is looking pretty sharp, as well - GI Joe BAT head?
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: thesithprince on November 15, 2011, 10:15:22 PM
No its actually a star wars rohlan dyre bucket. I cast a couple to play with.

I am almost done with my next wave of custom sabers, which are all for sale on ebay or through contact. Heres something to look at.
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: RavenEye on December 09, 2011, 09:07:48 AM
Awesome sabers you got there. FYI if you need extra material for making more H still sales them. Here's a link:

I know... They're pricey, but the green one is the 02' metal one. Purple, red, and blue are all ROTS.

So do you mold those lightsabers yourself?
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: thesithprince on December 12, 2011, 03:00:17 PM
In response to questions.....no I haven't done any leds to the slave one but that was an old project. Mango yes I cast the sabers all by myself. You should she the newest collection of them. Soon to be uploaded.

Post by: thesithprince on June 01, 2012, 09:48:59 PM
It has been sometime since I have worked on any toys. So I got out the toys and started to work again in the last few days. I finished the first of which, earlier today. This was one I wasn't to happy with so it got an upgrade. I removed the skirt that was on it and replaced it with a jango holster and crotch plate. Then I kept with the magnetic jetpack idea. I have many more coming soon. Stay posted!

Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: wheeljack on June 02, 2012, 03:06:03 AM
I really like your Mandos great ideas and colors, but the paint seems a bit thick.
Title: Re: The toys George should have made!
Post by: JediMerc on June 02, 2012, 03:30:18 AM
I really like your Mandos great ideas and colors, but the paint seems a bit thick.

Second that: I bought a medicine dropper at a local drugstore to add water slowly to my palette when painting.  This will allow you to thin your paints (if using water-based acrylics) without the danger of just creating a wash.

Post by: Tamer on June 02, 2012, 05:02:11 AM
Well I don't know how I have missed this thread for so long, but please accept my apologies for not getting some of your work to the front page sooner. Your Mando is now up there. I like that helmet combination you have come up with and think your color choice is perfect.

I will go through this thread the next few days and get a few more listed on the front page, like that great Maul I saw in here.

Always love a Mando. I like the use of the Bail body...he's like a Mando in a business suit.

"Nothing personal, lad. Just business". And then he slots you.
