Hi Everyone!!
Figured I've been lurking long enough, and it was time to start posting.
First up is two selfie Jedi customs, one is a work in progress Consular based on my SWTOR character, the second one is just in standard garb.
Secondly is a selection of custom droids, HK-50 is unmodded, he's just there as a comparison for the one I'm painting as the meatbag loathing HK-47.
Others are a gunslinger based on the droid mission providing npc on SWTOR during bounty hunting events, an old crotchety butler droid, and a helper/ companion droid for kids.
Finally, a selection of the customs currently on the bench in various states of build, there's A LOT more since I took that picture. Feedback is always appreciated!
-
Welcome! These WIPs and customs are looking great! Glad you decided to come out of the shadows and show us your great work :) I'm really liking the paint on your HK-47 conversion. Please show us more, and welcome to the forums!
-
Awesome work! Welcome to the yards! ;D
-
I have been out of town for a few days, but definitely want to welcome you to ISY. Great customs by the way. Off to take a couple of em to the front page.
-
Wow!! Thanks for the welcome, especially going onto the front page!! I'll be posting a few more customs in the coming days. There's a good mix of styles and themes that I hope you guys will enjoy!
In the mean time, here's a few simple ones I'm still working on.
Firstly, a swoop jockey and droid gunslinger (still not found hands I like for him yet).
Secondly, a sith pure blood & imperial inquisitorius.
Finally, a bit more colour variety to my jedi line up.
They're all getting a bit more work to them, whether it's just minor details, or in the case of the Nikto, a longer robe.
-
Some great work !!! Welcome to the yards
-
Nice, time to take your new update to the front page.
-
Love the gunslinger Droid. Can't wait to see it completed.
-
A quick update, many of them are still work in progress:
-First up is a Hobbit Jedi. He needs to be repainted and have the glue around his boot top tidied up,
-Next is a hired gun, need to neaten up the armour paint, and add his accessories
- A Barabel Jedi & an Aqualish civilian. Barabel needs work on the joints and paint work, the Aqualish is pretty much done. I always fancied making a character dressed for cold weather that wasn't any form of trooper.
- An intelligence agent and a very showy Rodian lounge lizard. Both are in need of further paint apps.
-
A few more:
-An older custom of a hired gun, he needs better paint and weathering, and my droid gunslinger, now with bonus hands!!! :P
Decided to use Rex hands as they have the cool swivel joints.
- This was going to be a custom Khem Val, but I messed up the head a bit, so he's now just some sort of enhanced slave/ brute.
- custom Jedi I designed for a comic, which I'll be putting up soon in the creative topic, and a very early stage Viking figure
- a padawan from the same comic, his design as one of the most radical clothing changes (much more 80's serial sci-fi design now) and a very early start on a custom Ithorian, he's getting a LOT more done to him.
-
Another shot of the padawan, and his sister. Her design hasn't changed too much in the transition to comic. They both need a set of horns added as they are human/zabrak mixed race.
Finally a twi'lek padawan and a work in progress mechanic. Both still need most of their outfits painted and weathered.
Hope you all have a great holiday weekend!!!
-
Wow, another great mix. I am taking that green guy to the front page.
-
Barmic, I'm a newbie too. I love what you did with the green lantern figure. Keep up the good work.
-
Thanks for the kind words. The Green lantern guy is my first screw up that I managed to fix up in some way. One side of his head is a bit flat where I cut the ears off, and the green stuff I used to effect repair didn't really take.
The tubing is just speaker wire officers glued down, and the 'sockets' on him are from the x-men build a figure that I've cut to pieces to use for a large scale figure I'm doing.
I'll be working on finishing up some of these in the near future, as well as a few other projects I've not yet shown. Very excited to reveal them when they're done.
-
looking good Barmic! Keep em' coming!
-
I was going to ask you about the helmet for your Darth Vetous, but re-read the description. What a great use of a Tron head, I didn't even recognize it.
-
Thanks, I wanted something that looked similar to the styles you can find in SWTOR, but not too obvious about what it is.
It really is a shame the Tron range all had that ghastly light up feature, as the actual sculpting wasn't too bad generally.
-
I totally agree (though I was disappointed that Quorra didn't come with her helmet off). They make good fodder for the Star Wars universe.
-
Hey everyone!
It's been a while since I posted any of my stuff, so I thought I'd share some bits I'm working on, pretty much of them will have a ton of work done on them before they're finished:
First up, a selection of random characters from various franchises including a Big Daddy (Bioshock) made from a mk1 iron man, playmobil diver helmet, and games workshop drill. The backpack is from one of the AOTC weapon packs.
There's also a realistic version of Kanan, Batgirl, and a few dark sider prophets, mercenaries, etc.
And to go with the massive diorama I'm working on, the start of Dr. Zed (Borderlands) & one of his vending machines!
I'll be posting a few more regular updates as I've got a huge backlog I'll be clearing!
-
Good to see you back for a bit. Time to take your update to the front page.
-
Awesome! Love the ingenuity on the Diver helmet and Zed! Try not to die!
-
Another quick update. Just a pair of Jedi and a galactic citizen.
None of them are painted, just assembled to check for fitting, though I'll be swapping a few more parts on the one on the left.
I'll be finishing off a few other projects from my backlog as I have far too many unfinished ones!
-
Looking forward to seeing more progress.
-
You have an awesome customs collection. Personally I like the darktrooper and the road warriors, but they are all exceptional.
-
Great collection and great use of parts and I look forward to your next lot.
