Got some more sculpting done on Pai Mei. Sculpting ain't easy, but it's a lot of fun. In case you're wondering, that's a toothpic broken off in his hair.


Looking cool, Tom!

Wow looks good Tom. Looks like a dead ringer from what I remember that character to be from the movie.

On the front page.

I used a Hard Master head from the Joe line that came in a comic pack a few years ago. May as well give you guys the rest of the body parts.....

I commented on fb but guess I missed it here. Great looking figure and I can't wait to see him completed.

great job on fett so far.  what do you plan to do for the armor?  Good job on the knee pads.  getting those trimmed off the original and grafted onto a good set of joe legs is a difficult task (speaking from experience here).

I'm planning on doing a cloth vest like I have done in the past. Just not sure if I'm going to use 30tac or Bespin battle armor. I'm going to attempt to use those Bespin gauntlets too.

Tonight was a success, I was able to get the Bespin Battle Pack Boba gauntlets onto the Vintage Collection Boba arms.( and yes they swivel) I also was able to drill and dremel my way to getting some Retaliation Storm Shadow hands on him too. If you couldn't tell I hollowed out the helmet and it fits over that Joe Sci-fi head. The gloves have a circle on the back of them, so I will paint them brown and white to match one of the concept Boba gloves.

Oh yea, another ultimate Boba from you! Loving the decisions you have made so far and I too have noticed the SS gloves and how bad Boba needed those hands! Great work Tom.

I agree with spry. Those hands are killer on him.
