This is one kick arse figure!  The grittiness/realistic paint apps are a quality that takes some effort to master, and you've accomplished that here.  I love that you tackled the face in a completely original way; when I read your description of her, I thought for sure that you were using the Lumiya head sculpt from that comic pack from a couple years ago.  She turned out great and I really like the red paint you used on her.

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

First off - thanks everyone for the kind words regarding my last custom. It's always uplifting to hear positive feedback from peers that you hold in high regard! So thank you all again and without further ado...

Here's the almost final build for my third and final TOR entry...

Hudson is my wife's main toon - he is currently level 46 - but this custom represents him circa level 30ish. Hudson is a Commando / Healer Trooper - I'm still awaiting the actual headsculpt that I will be using for this figure - a 25th Blowtorch...









Looking forward to finishing this guy off - as is Mrs Balls - she wants him standing in front of her monitor in the Wookie-Bunker!!

What's the current headsculpt on that WIP?  Looks familiar.
I'm always on the lookout for very strongly featured headsculpts.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Thanks JM!

Smeagol it's the GI Joe / M.A.S.K crossover Matt Trakker figure. A great sculpt as is the 25th Blowtorch that I'll be replacing it with!

I have NO idea what's going on, but I cannot locate GI Joe figures ANYWHERE in my area.  I've been looking everywhere.

Cool WIP of the TOR commando.  I has two in the works right now, and I even used the same gatling gun as a base for one of their BFGs!  We seem to be on the same wavelength!
