spudafett: p56: Three new Boba Fetts!! comic versions

(1/170) > >>

spudafett:
So I figured my old thread is burried so far in the list that I should just start a new one.

I was so inspired by all the female mandos from the previous contest that I wanted to do the figure that I REALLY wanted make for this contest... 
I had purchased two marvel universe kitty figures while I was out west and I wanted to use those as base figures for female mandalorian customs.  To do this I'd need to sculpt on the armor over the figure and I was trying to figure out how to do this so I did a little research into female mandalorian costumes.

Then of course I came across the famous "babe-a-fett"...


I was worried mostly about trying to sculpt the stomach armor onto the kitty figures because the breasts of the figure would then not be able to move against the sculpted armor...

so the way that "babe-a-fett's" armor is created acted as the perfect solution...

But the female version of boba has been done over and over so I'm going to take it a different route and "starbuck" jango instead.

so here was my preliminary figure before any sculpting:



So what I started out doing was popping the chest of the kitty figure and replacing the arms with the arms from a "pilot scarlett" figure.  I cut the arms short below the elbow and glued on two jodo kast fore-arms and trimmed off their un-articulated hands.  I then added the hands from a random joe figure to get the swivel wrist joint. 

I replaced the legs of the kitty figure with the legs from a female joe figure (don't remember which one)...

then I sculpted over the chest of the kitty torso, and the new legs to add jango-like armor





so once the sculpy hardens and is paintable i'll repaint the entire figure to match jango... sculpt new hair on the headsculpt that I'll be using and repaint it...  add the belt and holsters and it should be done in a few days...

what do yall think so far?

CaptainLux:
looking good so far!

JediMindtrix:
Sorry,I was too distracted by that picture of the Babe-A-Fett.  :o  j/k,looks great,and your heading in the right direction as far as i can tell.can't wait to see the end result.

Tamer:
Good to see you breaking back into the customizing Devin. This new one is gonna be good.

Phatty:
Nice to see you back in the game, Devin.  Shawn and I met her at CV last year, and that's not even her most impressive costume!  I need to try and find the images of her steampunk costume, it was pretty stellar.
