I passed on this mini-kit because it seemed too POTC for me, but you've got me rethinking that. Very cool custom figure!
Thank you! I  know what you mean. The octopus kit seems a bit too much like Davey Jones, but I'll try it out, with the right body. Some of them are near impossible to pass as star wars guys. Like that Anubis.

You are making me hungry. I love shellfish!
It's super easy to make. Make a simple sauce with crushed tomatoes, fresh herbs, minced garlic, onion maybe green pepper. Let it summer. Boil up some Crayfish for an American version and some muscles. Pour out half or more of the water, depending on how thick you want it. Add the sauce, let it sit and the sauce will fill up the muscles and Crayfish joints. Serve with Italian bread. It's good I gar-on-tee!

Does sound good, throw me in some hush puppies and I'm all in. Now I've got a craving for jambalaya, too.

Nice use of the Vitruvian HACKS.  I've been trying myself to figure out where to use those giant claws, you did an awesome job.  They seem very natural on that larger build figure.

I saw your Nephran it looks great! I was thinking just now that the Admiral Ackbar forearms would work really great for the claws.

 I tried my hand with a Wookiee custom. I've never tried. He's a merumeru with a Chewbacca head, that ended up being completely sculpted over. I wasn't planning to, it just happened.

    Rokkchecc was one of several wookiee prisoners aboard a slave ship headed for Kessel. The wookiees were able to break loose and overpower the crew. Rokkchecc took command of the ship and began his life as an outlaw pirate. He and his Wookiee crew dedicated their lives to freeing Wookiee slaves and disrupting the slave trade in general. Due to it's close to proximity to Kashyyyk, Rokkchecc set up his base of operations on Galgrebaa. There he was simply known as the Wookiee Captain.

Also I gave a go with a custom Vizago. He is one of my favorite Rebels characters. I just did a head-swap and repaint with a Joe Colton. Once I chopped the head off I kind of regretted it, but oh wellz.

Thanks guys. I started out just wanting to use Chewbacca head, but he has a distinct look that needed to be modified to look different. It started by adding a few dreds, then i ended up resculpting the whole head.

I don't know much about Rebels, so I don't know Vizago, yet. All I know is that I like your custom of him.
But hey JD, did your Wookie custom turn out great! He's looking raw! Awesome work on headsculpt and paint apps! Also like your reference to SOLO! A repaint of a couple Wookies and Ewoks is also on my list.
Thanks for sharing! High expectations are to meet now.
