When you put the helmet on the head does it deform the helmet in any way? That is something that always bothered me about the hasbro legacy/evo/vintage Boba. From your pics it looks good but pics don't always capture these small things. Lookin great man!

It bends about 1 or 2 mm, that's it. Can't notice any difference.

Alright guys, I pretty much have Boba done now. I went to thedentedhelmet.com and tried to copy some of the scratches in the helmet and jetpack. I made his Wookie braids out of twine that I also painted. Still need to fix some paint rub issues behind the knees. I am just waiting on his gauntlet power cord in the mail. Once I get that on he'll be done. Hope you guys enjoyed this build so far. Here are some pics.

Mara Jade. Just swapped heads with a TRU excl. Black Widow with the lightup base. Really easy since the neck nubs are the same size.

A nice, simple customization, but a welcome one. We really do need more headsculpts to work with than just the four or five we have floating around the Joe and SW collections!
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Re: Clonesniper78 Custom figures Marcus Luttrell (lone survivor)

Alright dudes, here  is my current project. Marcus Luttrell from the book and movie "Lone Survivor". He's holding a sat. phone and an M4. I'm going to try and make a Mk12 special purpose rifle. This is just the initial build to get his basic look down. I still need to add some pouches to his vest and a knife. Obviously he needs some paint too.

Got some painting done today. Figure still needs a few more coats.

I'm reading the book for the 2nd time right now and I've watched it on DVD 4 times. I love it. Well I just about got him done. I might even go back and give him a different head. Just using the M-4 as a stand-in right now.
