I REALLY love the knox, was he kit fisto at first?The head is a CW Kit Fisto, body of a Padawan Kenobi and hands of Qui-Gon Jinn. Glad you like him! :)
If you are new to figure customs you mst have done some painting before in some other form. These customs are very well done and each one is great in its own way. Can't wait to see more from you.Miniature painting...learned alot from painting and converting 30mm miniatures. Thanks for the compliment and here is the next one to add to the pile. :D

I was looking at this piece again, might I get your recipe?Certainly, I took two figures to complete this one...Stalker Armor Marek and Infinities Comic Vader.
WOW nuff said!!
lets give your ebay sales a shout out. Good luck dealing with the selling fees on that particular place.Thanks much Tamer!! :D
I think the paint apps look fine; what does that symbol represent on his upper chest?Actually it is just a few squiggles with a hashmark through the bottom...really means nothing, but I could always make up some kind of backstory for it. :D
I really like that droid. On the front page.Thanks much Tamer!! :D
Ima-Gun Di ~ The Final Attempt ;D

... he looks a little angry ;)
Did you sculpt the saber or piece it together from other parts?The lightsaber was chopped up a bit, removed the middle section of the sabre and then attached it to the ends of what was the axe in the hand. The leather looking wrap just added to the overall feel and flow of the character I thought, so I knew I just had to work around it. :D
I am amazed at how awesome this is. Did you sculpt this head? Details, details! DH
Wow. I bet I know where you will see this tomorrow.LOL
I'm a big fan of your work and customs like this are the reason why.Thank you brother, I really appreciate that! :D
You keep em coming I will keep plugging em cause I like em!LOL, thanks mate, I'm honored!! :D
That was a lot of ems, but on the front page.
Dunno why but I have always loved alien pilots, bounty hunters, merchants, jedi, soldiers... alien anythings are awesome! Love the Cad Bane Sith lord here! You certainly have a way with Sith Lords my friend! Keep 'em coming!
wow that is amazing now put your brush down and walk away :oLMAO!! ;D
Anyone ever done a Darth Dr. House?
Great minds, BOTWT! Haha. Well definitely going to need a Palpatine cane, lots of pain killers--or death sticks, and a surly disposition! Can't wait to see what you do for him!LOL, cane and some hydrocodone for sure...maybe I'll let him use some of mine. ;)
So was the removal of the Odin head difficult?Not really...it was an odd ball joint configuration, but still basically the same idea as a SW figure.

sick custom!Thanks brother! :)
Awesome work on that head sculpt! What head did you start with? That is a great looking Sith!Thanks mate! :)
Liquid green stuff you say, never heard of it, interesting.I was skeptical of the stuff at first, but it really does work wonders for joints and smoothing in sculpted edges on a model...can't sculpt with it really, but for clean up it's fantastic! :)
Hey, any chance you could give us a pic or any info. on that green stuff you are talking about?Why certainly... :)
Thank You!No problem :)
Had to get that update on the fp. Looks good Botwt.Thanks brother...very honored! :)
...but what did you use for the wheel leg in the back?Actually I used a 40K Speeder Bike for the wheel assembly...I was wracking my brain trying to figure out what would work and still be in scale, then hit eBay and found that part. It worked out pretty well! :)
I thought that was the front wheel off a space marine bike!Hehe...sharp eye my friend! :)

Those look awesome. Do you mind if I ask what arms and torso you used for the Sith Warrior?Sure, no problem, they are from the McQuarrie Concept Boba Fett...went that rout as it was concept armor and didn't already look like an established style from another race. :)
:o :o :oThanks for the vote of confidence, but there are people light-years better than I am and I'm just happy to contribute to the energy of the forum. :)
Okay, I can already tell you deserve to win the TOR contest. Let the battle begin! lvva
You did a great sculpt with that mask, I like the rustic chain too, gives it that little somethin extra :)Thanks mate! :)
Mind if I ask what head that is under the hood?
best use of a lego part I've yet seen. Absolutely stunning!!Legos? Where? :)
Oh the wheel looked like a lego trike piece. What's it from?
You should win for that Astro alone!!!!
Totally fantastic piece, I love it!
Very nice! I will be making one as well when I do a CW style Boba. Have to pinch this idea!Cannot wait to see how CW Boba comes out...that should look amazing with your skill! :)
Oh man, your pirate looks great! It seems we are working on the same style project at the moment, you will see what I mean with my next update. I love pirates!Hehe...I cannot wait! :)
Wow, I think that looks fantastic!Thanks you, and that is only a dry run...it will be much nicer than this one. :)
Botwt - I heat mine up ala boil and pop, then use a craft knife to pop open the join...
It already looks cool without any paint apps or head. lolHey, maybe I'll leave her just like that. :P
hey on the back of her helmet theres 2 things on back of helm search her on google theres a pic.
what head u goin with i think she has orange hair if u asked me i go with the head from incoms fem atat pilot. ;)Actually she isn't going to have a removable helmet, at least for now. I may get a Pre Viszla helmet and modify it if I find a head that will match up to Filoni's drawing of her, and still keep with the animated look.
Well, here she is with the base coloring done...still need to highlight, weather the armor, etc...about 50% complete.
I wonder what she actually looks like under that helm?
Thanks guys, glad you like her...been having a few bad days with my MS so haven't gotten around to doing more on her, but I promise I'll update soon. :)
What I wouldn't give to see this type of body get molded and casted and thousands made.
Thanks guys, glad you like her...been having a few bad days with my MS so haven't gotten around to doing more on her, but I promise I'll update soon. :)can totally sympathise, my ME has really been giving me a kicking lately too ...
yeah i believe MS & ME sufferers are given very similar medicationActually all the meds that they have given me for the exhaustion had the same effect as taking an M&M...though the injections I take have kept me from a relapse. :)
Ouch...that is a boat load, but if they working that is the important thing.
Keeping ya in my thoughts brother! :)
Next up....Mon Calamari Sith Lord

Very cool! Is that the new Ashoka in diver gear figure? Looks awesome!Thanks! Yup, was the new Ahsoka as the base figure. :)
What parts did you use?
Very cool! That Zuckus is a bit short isn't he? I guess he was pretty young when this photo was taken.He was just a wee findsman back then. ;)
Hey mate - please do a CW style Dengar, if anyone can pull that off it'll be your good self!!I don't know about botwt but i am almost definitely doing Dengar(only difference is i am doing him when he was in ESB he does CW) When i do CW crossover's i mean animated and he mean's during CW witch i never even thought of great Idea mate! I'd like to give you a recipe u could use.
Wow, wouldn't a complete TESB Bounty Hunter Group in TESB Style be awesome! Go for it Botwt.Hehe, you guys have me seriously thinking about it. :)
