Well please don't let us twist your arm here as we are just really enjoying your customs.

And Saturday is the end of the contest if you were wondering how long you had.

I did some new figure recently: Hardcase and an outland trooper. The outland trooper is still a WIP.

I did a few more in my free time during spring break: Kazdan Paratus, Jawa in costume, Fox with articulated knees and ankles, a touched up version of my earlier Kix, and that last one is just for fun.











And I have a question for all you experienced customizers out there, what kind of glue do you guys use? I try to stick to using super glue (get it? "stick to super glue" lol) but it doesn't work for kitbashing guns and sabers since they're so small and then hot glue just looks sloppy and drips.

I love he Jawa in R2 costume; great idea!

As for your question about glues: I use a plastics-only super glue that I bought at a local Home Depot.  It comes with a small bottle use to prepare the surfaces of the two pieces of plastic you want to join and then a second bottle of the actual glue.  (Cant remember the name brand off the top of my head, but its the standard brand sold there.)  The  glue must be held together for about 30 seconds to achieve the "hold" you want.  It works pretty well for holding weapons, as well as figure parts, together (at least in my experience).

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!
