Topic: Mr. Black's customs: K2SO repaint for charity

[Clonehead]

Ah finally we're allowed to post pics of our dioramas for the Karen Traviss Tribute contest  Here are clearer shots of two key characters of my dio:


Kal Skirata:





Mereel Skirata in Mandalorian armour:





Kal'buir and Merd'ika together:

Ahh, finally we get some front side shots of these. Man, I love em both. The paint apps are really nice on this pair.
I really like how Mereel Skirata's upper under coverings are a shade darker than on the rest of the figure. It adds an additional bit of realism. Headed to the front page with that shot of the both of em.

Hey, thanks Clint!!! Kal's a bit smaller than Mereel too, by the way 

[Commander_Kurgan]

These figures are very nice.

I love these dude! your mereel is incredible!

Kal's been a pretty popular custom these days, but I think this one might be my favorite.  Afraid you're going to HAVE to do an unmasked head for him.

AWESOME CUSTOMS!!! nice mandos

Incom,

I must admit that as I clicked on this post I was expecting something amazing as you have very hight standards, but these latest set of customs are really something else. I've seen plenty of Mandos and yours are up there with the best of them. The Jedi is another very clean custom.

As I am a photoshop buff I was also very impressed with your logo on the images and the superb photography and presentation of your posts.

You never fail to impress.

the Kal Skirata custom  is awesome

[Mr. Black]

Thanks for looking and commenting, guys  Glad you all approve 

Dan, I was lucky Karen didn't clearly state whether or not Kal was wearing his helmet in Ko Sai's office, but Mereel clearly removed his. I saw an excellent Kal Skirata at RS a while ago, which used a BBi figure's head. Another one used a Marvel Punisher head. I'll have to check out some BBi figures then.

Jules, thanks for the praise, mate. Yeah, I visited dafont.com and found this really cool graffiti font called 'mostwazted'. Add a little glow and an outline and presto! But that's a walk in the park for you. I did learn how to copy the layers of my logo to the other pictures, though

I need some photoshop classes. Love the incom graphic on your pics.

have I comented on these?  either way they are awesome.  Great paint apps.  I'm loving the combination of parts as well.

on the one figure you used the shins and feet of the mcquarrie concept boba fett didn't you?   I noticed on that figure almost right away that it doesn't have ankle articulation...  this is easily fixed if you care to mess with it.  The way I did it was cut the feet off flush at the bottom of the armor and drilled a new peg hole for a new set of feet.  Then took the feet off a spare boba figure and used them...   To take it a step further and make it look even better you should dremel out a small rounded socket into the ankle that the ball of the new foot can fit up inside flush so that it doesn't look as awekward, does that make sense?
