Loving the Mechanic. No offence to any mechanics out there but just what I expect a mechanic to look like, Slightly overweight and frowning. you can almost hear him suck in through his teeth and say "hmmm, its gonna cost ya". Nice paint job too, good shading and highlights makes it look well worn. The only thing I'd add is some oil stains to his overalls.

Yep.  We need more Corellian ale bellies in the SW universe.  Don't let ICMG be the only one!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

I definitely agree to that one. I loved DD's Dathomir he made that was heavy set too.

Thanks for the nice comments on the last action figure. 

It's been a few weeks since I have worked on any action figures.  I prepped a Guri for sculpting about two weeks ago, but I haven't done anything else since then.  Fortunately I still have an update for you all.  This is a video of customs that just aren't sitting right with me.

Taken from the blog:

CUSTOMS FOR THE KID: JOURNEY TO THE LAND OF MISFIT STAR WARS TOYS

"So we know it's been a long time since we did a post.  I went away with my mom on vacation for a week, and Dad has been working every day for the last two weeks.  Basically, we haven't had a whole lot of time to put into the blog.  Fortunately, Dad stopped home in between assignments and photographed some work in progress pictures of some of our strangest figures to date.  In this video we have a turban wearing monkey lizard, a cross dressing Hutt, a breathing compromised Nautolan Imperial officer, a gladiator who is all teeth and a H'nemthe Jedi.  Some of these figures may just need their paint application to be wrapped up, but the Hutt and the gladiator Dad has no idea what he wants to do to finish them up.  Any suggestions?  If you do, please put your suggestions in the comments section below."

That Hutt is really cool!!!  maybe just a lighter more female colored skin like yellow or red would really give the character its own life, and not just a drag Jabba :)

This H'nemthe Jedi was created with the body of the Vintage Kit Fisto and the head of the M'liyoom.  All I had to do was paint the neck post and the hands to get this one done.  Dad's still taking a break from customizing, so I'll try and keep things going.
