Incredible work on both! Again, I really like the color pattern you work with! This technique puts much realism to your customs! Talz and Ephant look outstanding!

Looking good! Are you also working with resin parts? Also the accessories in the background are nice! Are these wooden boxes from Schleich or some of this tiny treasures series from Michael's, Dan reported on before?
Really like all the alien customs you showed us so far!

That Talz is interesting. I like the paint job. It's a bit amusing to me as I recently did just the opposite, using a CW Talz body for a super articulated Gigoran.

@ Darth More: I don't work with resin parts (yet, I'm experimenting) and those are the Schleich crates as you mentioned.

@ Starchaser: one page back I have the reverse figure; a Gigoran head on the Thi-sen body

Here two more, both from a long, long time ago:

Here an experimental one: I used a Stass Allie head backwards tot produce, I don't know, some sort of plantlike or sluglike alien skiff guard.

That Vong looks nice and gruesome. Awesome.

Off to the front pages again.

Nice paint jobs on these. The reverse Stass is creative - I like the concept. I did wonder about the body under that Pote Snitkin tunic, but didn't assume it was Thi-Sen.

Thanks for the compliments and by all means, use any ideas you get. I've stolen a good many customizing recipes through the years!

Up next a couple of gladiators:

Great job on these. I really like the color that you get in your paint jobs - most excellent. I also really like your use of Rum Sleg's name :)

Excellent repaints and phenomenal designs right there! I love all of them! Your Desert Skiff or even the Khetanna would look so awesome with all your custom Skiff Guards!
