With the the new Cantina HasLab now in full swing we thought it would be an appropriate time for us to pull out some really spectacular headsculpts we were fortunate enough to acquire from the talented sculptor John Evergrey. We wanted everyone to get as excited as we are about Hasbro's latest campaign offering and we figured what better way to go about that than by creating and sharing some really cool custom action figures with you all.
If you saw our recent Fozec figure we posted last month than you may already be familiar with the artist John Evergrey. The sculptor has legendary status in the Rebelscum.com forums for well over a decade now. Evergrey had the most desired headsculpts in the entire community, but they were never available for purchase. Then, one day, Evergrey offered to sell all of his original Star Wars headsculpts as a lot. The price was a bit steep but a small group of customizers banded together to make the purchase and the rest is history. We were extremely fortunate to acquire a few of these casts from the artist privately and they our the perfect centerpieces for our latest custom Cantina creations. We are hoping to share a few other Cantina customs before the campaign ends July 8th.
To make Debnoli, Dad sourced the parts from what he was able to find in our fodder, then did the quick build, as I painted the Evergrey head. I also drew the lines onto the robe Debnoli was wearing with a thin brown Sharpie. The permanent marker had some serious fumes that made me feel nauseous and even gave me a headache so be careful working with them for a long time. Make sure to be somewhere with good ventilation and take breaks if you feel yourself start to become affected.
Dad used TVC Bespin Luke beneath the robe of the Comic Pack - Uncle Owen so the action figure would be able to sit in a chair like in the movie. Dad used a strap of a Clone Trooper gun to fabricate Debnoli's belt. After the head was painted and the robe was comletely pinstriped, the figure was complete and ready to be photographed.
Debnoli was a marksman who frequented Chalmun's Cantina in Mos Eisley. He sought revenge on the Galactic Empire for impounding his ship. From time to time, Debnoli worked with Bron Burs, a former commando from the planet Nentan.
In 0 BBY, the smuggler Gela Yeens, who also worked for Jabba Desilijic Tiure as a debt collector, was searching for him.[4] Debnoli was present in the Mos Eisley cantina when Greedo was killed by Han Solo.

The material that we use to create a customizable Cantina floor can be obtained from Amazon. It works wonderfully for a modular playset like the Cantina HaslLab that lets you build your display however you like.
