WOW! This is getting so awesome! I can see what Tamer is talking about, it looks like voting on this one is going next to impossible.

Thanks to everyone who is participating, it's so great to see all the well thought out and original ideas. The entries so far are so amazing, I just don't know what else to say...

Oh yeah, @Stefan, great idea, how could I not make a card set, or two, or whatever it takes to showcase all this super cool work.

oh my, new levels of coolness here today. Ron, your entry is stunning! Is that a Marion Ravenwood head with some sculpting? If so it looks so much more like Jenn than the Baroness head, good call! Then the idea for the tuscan clothing draped over her, even cooler. Amazing weathering and details my friend.


Botw, that anime style Jenn rocks man! Very well done and I love the joe parts you have meshed together with the CW parts. Very sleek and sultry, nice touch with the neck tattoo.

Wow Ron, that looks fantastic.

You took your favorite character and made a Jenn out of it. Spot on!

I will have to do another contest update later on this week and use that one.

Thanks guys...and I agree AFE, the entries for this should all be winners, very tough to judge! 

botwt you must tell us the recipe and what paint you used. That flat black looks perfect.
Flat black...well it is pretty simple sort of...black paints tend to have different tints to them...some more blue and others lean toward grey. To get the best looking flat black I find is to use Ceramcoat Black then use Testors Dullcote to protect it and add an extra layer to help suppress any shine that is left (which really isn't much). Hope that helps! :D

Thanks man, I always want to gather as much knowledge as I can.

THIS IS MY ENTRY!

This is a recent, but not new creation.  Originally intended as jaina solo with lowbacca, i think it resembles wookieelover1138 a bit, and she's hugging on a wookiee.  maybe this can be "Custom of Jen Cosplaying Jaina"





Love the Kessel Run Review though. Lots of fun. 

Enjoy

I loved Chad's Zombie Jenn and was mesmerized by first Ron's rogue sandtrooper Jenn and then Botw brought the theme to a whole new perspective with his animated version "love the tattoo!"
Not TND comes in with his great creation "welcome to the shipyards by the way"

Man, this is turning into some contest, folks!

TND great entry and a unique idea. Very well done, I am a big fan of the Rebels.


We have seen Jenn hanging out with Aurra Sing in her black bounty hunter outfit. There are a few tales about her time with Aurra but one not many know, as most were never seen or heard from again after seeing her. To join forces with Aurra Jenn had to train, fight, practice shooting and live with her until her skills matched Aurra's. At that point to show her loyalty and mark the moment she had achieved her goal, Aurra shaved Jenn's head leaving only a narrow strip on top. Durring her training she learned to make many gadgets and collected things to incorporate to make herself a better, quicker, more equipped bounty hunter. You may notice she has boot rockets and a knife hidden on the back, 2 custom blasters, custom sniper riffle with soft strap, wrist gauntlet she has improved herself, hand held scanner and communicator, detention cuffs and a hologram projector. If you know anything about this bad girl you know her pet, companion, guard beast Buudaah is never far behind and she does have a leash to keep him from getting too wild.



This is my entry.

Through a special collaboration with Luke Sprywalker and Sideshow Collectables, we present the ultimate Fan Girl, WookieLover1138 of the Kessel Run Review in Bounty Hunter gear. She has been immortalized in plastic in The Clone Wars Style. Ultimate Collector Edition comes with Buudaah and leash, only 200 available. Collector Edition is limited to 500 pieces so get 'em while they're hot.

These entries are incredible.  The pressure is on.  I'm breaking a sweat here.  I just made my first custom in a long time this weekend after a few weeks of no customizing.  I've been getting by on posting old projects, but now that I'm back at it, I have to figure out what to do.  The competition is fierce in this one.  I'll get started after I pick my jaw up from off the floor.
