I really want to continue my run of ISY member based custom figures so if you'd like to see yourself as a figure let me know! please submit a photo of yourself or a description of what you look like either here or via PM and tell me a bit about your customizer persona. This can be based on your ISY handle, favorite character, etc. and your figure will be featured here in HD photos along with the recipe so you can make one at home!
So who wants to be a custom figure?
So far i have done custom figures of Tamer and Luke Sprywalker. Lets add more to their ranks!
please note i am working with existing Hasbro sculpts and pieces. i should be able to create a good likeness of you but it may not be exact.
-
AWESOME!!!!!!! i want 2 be a custom figure
-
That sounds pretty cool...I'm in. :D
Just let me know when you'd like to start and I'll get you whatever you need. :D
-
I'm already a custom action figure! 2 years ago, Slayer Designs made a sculpt of my likeness and several hundred were sold to customizers around the world :)
-
Ok to have a custom figure, I'll need a photo of your upper body and face. Or a detailed description (Hair, skin tone, etc.)
Also a bit about how you see yourself as a customizer and as a character in the Star Wars Universe. e.g. Are you a tie fighter pilot? A Crafty smuggler? A Droid builder? A Jedi? Mando? Sith? Etc.
And from there I'll run with it.
Feel free to PM me the details/photos if you'd like your info to remain out of the forums.
@ Ghostskull and Botwt: glad you guys are excited! You shall be my two next projects!
Also for Botwt can you spell out your forum handle? Is it Bot White? Or something else?
@Spectre: that's cool! Any pics?
-
I am so in :D
-
@Spectre: that's cool! Any pics?
Check out my Custom Universe thread. Look for the entry that reads "Spectre: Night Force Sniper" :)
-
Awesome! I have been mulling over doing one of you for a while... still trying to think of the best way to do it... think I'll loo into getting a G.I. Joe Baroness head from somewhere for it.
Also please specify your preffered race for your custom: Human, alien, droid, etc.
-
That sounds so great!!! Definately human ;D
-
Dropped you a PM with my pic and info. :D
-
Ya know, I'd like to get a custom of me! Tell me what you need, what the deal is, and we can get started!
Ok, here are my deets:
I'd like to be an armored Jedi or Sith. Not really sure which I'd rather be, so surprise me!
I like the colors Blue, Green, Orange, and Yellow
I have hazel colored eyes that change to match what I'm wearing, so to speak
I have reddish-brown hair with greying temples

do you have to pay? ???

@ Commander Wolffe: Nope! It's free!
-
Cool! I have one up of Spry :)
I have Hans' figure planned out, and I have Ghostskull's too with a back story! Going to shoot on sunday! I am ordering 2 figures specially to create Jenny's custom!
Here is the list for who has requested figures and the order in which they will be posted:
Remember it's first come first serve:
1. Ghostskull (nearly ready)
2. Botwt
3. Phatty
4. Hans Fartknocker (nearly ready)
5. Beige 4? Not sure if he really wants one, as I am not going to use any paint, glue, clay, etc. That's the challenge I have slated myself with, nothing but original Hasbro pieces.
6. Commander Wolffe?
Wookielover1138 (on back order, as I need to order some special parts/pieces)
Awesome I've got my imagination working overtime and I'm digging through my bins for the necessary bits! Keep the requests coming!
-
This is very cool of you to do something like this! I know I am grateful, and I'm sure the others are as well!

I've made several versions of myself over the years, I always thought self customs were fun. My best one is actually showcased in its own thread over in the miscellaneous customs section.
It's cool of you to do these for everyone here. good luck!
-
Thanks Spuda! Definitely going to check out your portrait!

So I was announcing to the family how cool and awesome this was and my son - the smart-alec - chimed in. "Oh, you'd be an easy one, Dad! The Rancor-Keeper with a finhead Clone helmet!!"
...the medical personnel are confident he'll regain consciousness by the end of June...

After reading this I actually snort-laughed.

@Doc: Hahahahaha that can arranged!

I was afraid you'd say that - I'm *considerably* better looking than Malakili!! I mean, maybe a Willrow Hood body - but Malakili??

Couple of pics of me, just in case.
The boy relented and said, "Okay, maybe Dengar with a finhead helmet." Oh, how gracious he can be...
-
Doc, sounds like your son loves to get your goat! :D
-
Hahaha But seriously Doc, how do you envision yourself?
-
Well, my wife suggested an Endor Commando-style look. My only other thoughts were a smuggler or bounty hunter. (and I like G-36's, so you can get some mileage out of those POC rifles!)
-
Awesome! I like the idea of the Endor Commando! G-36? as in the Earth rifle? POC rifle? Explain! haha
-
Yeah, a lot of the POC figs have G-36 rifles. I'll dig one out and shoot a pic of it.
-
Ok cool. I think i might have a GI Joe one somewhere!
-
Here y'are:

Don't see your name on the list and you asked for one? Remind me (I've got a lot of figures to make so it may have slipped my mind) and I'll get crackin' on it for you!
Haven't asked for one yet? Don't be shy!
Just give me a brief description of how you see yourself in the Star Wars Universe, what you look like (photos welcome!), and what kind of character(s) you like the best/identify with the most.
Please be patient, as I do work and have a family, but as long as you let me know you will be on the list!
Update coming tuesday/wednesday! Stick around!
