welcome aboard Colin
Title: Re: Colin Lingus Hobb's Customs
Post by: Tamer on February 08, 2011, 08:37:26 AM: I must say I am really liking Colin's latest AT-AT Driver custom if you check out his facebook page. I saved it and will put it up here later, but it is a great looking vizored AT-AT Gunner. Nice work Colin. I will get this pic loaded when I get home from work as my workplace firewalls facebook and I didn't have enough time this morning.

Wow. You cut up a Driver Mini Bust to make the helmet? Sweet deal. What scale would you say this is at?

I would love to see a recipe listing for this of all the pieces you used.

Post by: Colin Lingus Hobbs on February 09, 2011, 12:33:22 PM: Sorry the helmet is from a BUST UPS.
Legs- ep3 clone pilot
Cape- ep3 clone commander
Body- legacy/votc Biker scout

Title: Re: Colin Lingus Hobb's Customs
Post by: Tamer on July 30, 2011, 10:21:26 AM: Colin sent me some new pics. This is of a SW Alien Race called the Ssi-Ruuk. I am not familiar with them, but daggone they look tough to me!

All I have to say is I sure hope his computer situation improves so he can get in here and show us more of his SW customs. I know he has done a lot, but I am thinking he is relegated to just using his iphone or something along those lines.

Hanns did, I didn't, but daggone it sure does look like the picture Hans found.

Colin you have got to get a computer or someway to load up those customs you are making, I gotta wonder what else you are sitting on.
Title: Re: Colin Lingus Hobb's Customs
Post by: Jedi Minstrel on July 30, 2011, 09:09:53 PM: Good Stuff! I remember reading about the Ssi-Ruuk. Maybe you could do that kid in that same book that was going to have his brain pulled out.
Title: Re: Colin Lingus Hobb's Customs
Post by: sith_fire30 on July 30, 2011, 09:37:44 PM: Great work Colin! - awesome to see such a rare character like the Ssi-Ruuk made!!!

Post by: Tamer on August 01, 2011, 07:10:15 AM: Colin had a few new pics in my inbox this morning when I got up. I am telling you this place has its perks.

AT-AT Gunner Commander

(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/Tamer%20continued/colincruse2.jpg)

This is a cool idea about the Jedi Cruise Missle as it reminds me of the EU one they made with an AT-AT Driver pilot.

He is doing all his internet posting with a phone I do believe and I sent him word on the mobile app that photobucket has so I hope he can get right in here to post soon.
