Thanks so much for the kind words guys! Joe! Great to see you back in here! I have been grinding away on a few more of these guys, I am sure you would have never guessed. LOL First up is Rayc Ryjerd, He is paying off old debt as Jabba's cook. He can be seen at the BBQ in the Palae and on the sale Barge enjoying an adult beverage. I am working with Ugnaught legs and Farm Boy Luke torso, the peg and 1/4 inch of the waist has been removed to shorten the figure. I added a srew and will do the hot glue fill described earlier to make a tight fitting swivel joint.







Here he is with his Father Rycar Ryjerd who can be seen in the streets of Tatooine and the Cantina in ANH.





With Greedo to check the scale, he looks just right.





Screen shot





Here he is.








I guess these guys like blue...






I then started on the Human guard on the second skiff. I pieced together this body and started on his helmet with some soft goods rather than sculpting this time. It will get glued down, after I repaint the face, so it will look more normal.





Sculpting the gauntlets and sadly I didn't take another WIP photo after this one. I also sculpted the wrist gauntlets over the lower arms.






Screen shot






Completed












That is it for today, I have a fully articulated Barada and Yoxgit in the works and I need to make Nizuk Bec and the Jawa that fans Jabba. After those 4 I have to get to work on mods to my Palace and building a new BBQ and all the little things you see in the scene.  I hope to be updating some diorama pics next weekend. Chao for now.

Selling your soul to the devil in exchange for some of the sweetest customizing skills on this side of the sun is totally worth it after seeing one masterpiece after another. Luke Sprywalker Day doesn't come often enough, unlike you and your stable of hotties who service your every need. Hope that innuendo wasn't too far.

Thanks guys! I am hoping no one gets burned out on seeing all the background characters and skiff guards.


So my good buddy Chad, aka Peakob1, asked when I would be making Yoxgit. I said, I already have one so I may not be making him this round. Well, when people ask me stuff like that I start looking at my old custom and saying, he doesn't fit in with current figures or my new paint style. So here we go...


I have dremeled away and sanded half of the Ugnaught torso.





Now bothe sides are done and I sculpted his pockets.





I have also dremeled away at his hair line to make that screen accurate.





Here he is ready for paint.

Here he is...















Next up is the final skiff guard on the second skiff, Barada. I now have made them all! I am sure Hasbro will update this one but who wants to sit around waiting for that to happen? Not me...


Parts bash

Here he is!

















I have one more almost done and will have him up tomorrow.

These figures are so amazing.  Love them all.  You definitely brought one of my all-time favorite scenes to life.  Can't wait to see the finished diorama filled with all these masterpieces.  CVI has no idea what they're in store for.  So wish I had the money to go.  I should have started a kickstarter on the blog at the beginning of the year for fans that wanted us there.  I would have loved to see this in person!

Looks awesome Spry. Back on the front page.

I am so excited for that customizing panel I am already having a rough time sleeping. I feel like a kid at Christmas.
