Title: ThrawnFan01's Customs
Post by: ThrawnFan01 on April 17, 2014, 06:20:30 PM: Hey guys! I'm new customizing SW figures. In the past I've worked on model railroads and 1/35 scale WWII models.

This is my first clone custom. His name is Scud. I've used the camo of Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Hope you like him.

Actually, I used a brick texture I found online. I resized them to fit the scale. To make them look more realistic I dry brushed paint over them to give them a dirty faded look. The tiled floor he is standing on comes from a Bath & Body Works box. Again, I just weathered that as well.

His job is to help aliens relocate 'for their safety' to other regions on Corusant. However, the Rebels and their supporters know that the ISBARU's only task is to remove aliens from desirable districts on Imperial Worlds.
