Guys, thanks so much for looking and for the positive vibes! Glad it all meets your approval. I'll do my best to keep this thread up to date as I continue with my current projects and the new ones I will inevitably start ;)

Could I get the recipe for Ven and Malgus?

Sure thing, my man:

(Darth Malgus has been copied of Jokabofe's (a.k.a. Starwarsgeek) excellent version from quite a while ago. I did a few details differently, but still all credits go to him :))

Darth Malgus:
ROC Doc Lewis - head
Cobra Commander (Battle Armour) - upper arms
TAC Galactic Marine - shoulder armour
ROC Flash - breath mask, upper torso, modified upper body gear, lower arms/hands
X-Men Origins: Maverick - lower body, upper legs, neck piece
TAC Vader - lower legs, feet, modified saber hilt
And a random sith cape.

Ven Zallow:
Resolute Duke - head (resculpted hair)
ROC Duke (RIA) - torso, upper arms, upper legs
ROC Ripcord (Accelerator Suit) - shoulder armour, lower arms
TAC Concept Boba Fett - belt
CW Clone Trooper - belt ammo packs
25th. Ann. Wraith - lower legs, feet
Random saber hilt and cloak.

I've seen your work elsewhere on other sites' forums, and it's always awesome no matter where/when I see it!

Your renditions of Master Zallow and Malgus really are top-notch work!  I've always been partial to the Duros spacer though! 

Great, great work!

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

Thanks for the feedback guys!

It's not like I haven't been doing anything lately, it's.... well it's me and my obsessive addiction to works in progress  :lol:  Anyway, while the Greenstuff and Fixit on Darksiders Death and Ulthane cure, I've been busy assembling a custom that will have a very special meaning to me and perhaps to others as well.

I recently joined EchoBase, planning on entering the contest that Mike set up. Like many others, I was shocked to learn of his passing a few days ago. I will finish this custom then in honour of him, entering it in the contest and offering it up for another auction in benefit of Mike's family, setup by Tim Welch (check this thread)

It's based on an artpiece I found on Deviantart/SWAG.

Herre's a WIP shot of this Twi'lek smuggler:



And yes, that's a custom made double barreled blaster she's holding :)

Final pics sometime next week. I do have next Thursday off, so I could customize all day ;)

I've been quite busy painting the Twi'lek smuggler and I expect to finish her this weekend. Here's a closer look at the painted head. I've tried an eye painting method also used by Sithfire and I must say I am quite pleased with this first result. If you look back at my customs, the looks on their faces are mostly that of someone on crack  :P

Nice work Incom. The  eyes are great do tell on the method from Sithfire. I could use some tips on eye painting...

I was just about to ask the same question! and LC got their first.

The close up shot is amazing especially knowing how small that head is. The detailing is so small and as I've tried to perfect eye make-up and pupils and I know that even the slightest fraction of paint out of place ruins the look...you've done a wonderful job!

Absolutely love the Twi'Lek!

Thanks for the comments guys, glad you all approve!

Here's a link to Sithfire's method of eye painting (scroll down to the bottom half of his post, until you see the pic below):



http://sithfire.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Traditionally, one paints the skin, then the whites of the eyes, pupils, eye lashes, eyebrows and go back to touch up the skin around the eyes. That never really worked for me and I'm very happy to see this other method works so much better for me.

Agreed!  I had assumed it would be in his blog, but hadn't made time to hunt it down.
