Nice job theyrenotdolls, Jenn is an awesome pilot and looks great in her flight-suit.

Amazing entry L.E. The detail work is incredible all the different gear is really cool especially that knife and the crazy thing hanging off the back of her belt.

Mr. Boots (Buddha) is very excited about making an appearance in the contest.

Haha I was trying to clear some space in my flickr and realized i never subscribed... so the photos went bye-bye. So I'm going to bite the bullet and subscribe and then repost them. Fear not!

This is how I am turning Jenn into "Wookielover1338 in Carbonite" for the latest Imperial Shipyards contest.

I traced and then cut plastic pieces from a plastic Chinese food container and turned them into the top and side panels of the carbonite block. I used a Han Solo in Carbonite as a template to trace the panels out so they turned out the right size. I then fastened the panels together with tape and then bonded them together with Apoxie Sculpt. I cut a silhouette of Jenn into the top panel. As a template I used the custom Wookielover1138 action figure that I created from the body of a CW Padme in Adventure Gear with the head of a Marion Ravenwood. I laid the action figure in his desired pose and traced around the action figure with a marker. So I then placed the action figure in the center of the cut out in the top panel and fastened the action figure in place with the Apoxie Sculpt. I finished today's work with priming the top panel with some grey paint.

Next I have to do all the sculpting on the side panels, sand and smooth out the top with more Apoxie Sculpt and then do all the painting to finish it up.

This is a technique that could be used with any action figure.

Dude! I knew you'd create something stellar! This is amazing! We need to have a custom hall of fame and add to it a Jenny wing so all these fabulous pieces can be added! Sorry I beat you to your other idea! But this (in my opinion) blows the halloween costume away! Can't wait to see it finished and sold to Jabba!

Holy freaking smokes, DD, and I thought that the entries to this contest couldn't get any cooler.
Fabulous idea, my man!

Double D you are a mad man! So mad in fact that I love it! Freaking awesome work here, so you created a figure then pieced together the box from a recycled container? This is just phenominal! Your creativity grows leaps and bounds with each new project. I would love to hear the parts used for the figure. Can't wait to see her finished up.

Awesome Darth D! A really great idea.

Let's see, I think that is an Adventure Padme, who's hair I might have seen on another custom a while ago.
