Re: Mr. Black's customs: another new project: Skull Garrison

Right now I have two commissioned figures in the works, which take priority, but when sculpting you always end up with a tad too much sculpey. So, I thought I'd start a new project (aaarggghhh!).

I don't know if you guys know of the Mexican 501st, but not too long ago, an extremely cool ST helmet mod showed up on their FB page. They call themselves the 501st Skull Garrison and rightfully figured they needed proper helmet designs to go with that.

Reference shot:



Early WIP by me:

Wow, this looks really awesome. I didn't know it existed. I can't wait to see you make this in AF Form. Off to share.

The skull helmet looks amazing and I can't wait to see the smaller version as well.

Thanks guys! Mind you, the 1:1 scale helmet is NOT mine, it's from the Mexican 501st.

Anyway, not much time lately for customizing, but I did manage to continue on my two commissioned Jedi:

Rachi Sitra: soft goods an sculpted clothing. Sleeve test, which I will definitely need to redo. This really won't do :)




Ven Zallow: sculpted the belt and the chest belt. Placed magnets in the shoulder and shoulder pad. That way Ven can have his shoulder armour on with or without his cloak.

What can I say Remco, all is sheer awesomeness. Time to go share. That lower belt work on Ven is just fantastic. Off to share.

Ven Zallow looks fantastic!  I love WIP pics like this: shows what amazing techniques go into creating an awesome figure. 

I just placed an order for the use of the rare earth magnets myself; it's amazing what can be done with those suckers. 

Tis is shaping up to be one hell of a figure...looks great without even being finished!

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

Thanks guys! Sculpting's pretty much done, I'll be cleaning up both figures this week to prep them for painting.
