von's customs ++update MAY 22 cantina++
« on: September 05, 2010, 09:36:14 AM »
Hey folks,

I'm new to the shipyards, used to own a nice vintage collection of star wars toys & action figures up until '91-92....However that time in life it was hard times and i was forced to sell off my collection. Once life got better i didn't bother collection again until now....and wow! have i ever missed out  on a lot of cool figures. Right now i am building up jabba's palace & Chalmun's Cantina and of course the new bounty hunter's...very cool. I also thought it would be fun to make a few of my own figures....This is how i found the Imperial ship yards  vadsab


Here is a few pix of my first attempt at making & painting my own customs, once i get my collection sorted out & set-up i will post more pictures.

Well for starters, welcome to the Shipyards!  It's a shame you had to sell off your collection, but we all know how times can get.  I'm liking your customs, they are definitely a wide variety!

Hey folks,

I had some free time today after work and did a re-paint...do they count as customs? Excuse my ignorance...i'll catch onto the lingo & what's what...

ok i always hated the paint they gave Labria, i have a extra potf Labria so i used that figure as the Ginnie pig, I think the potf & saga figures are the same....just re-packaged. here is my re-paint next to the saga Labria, i removed his cape until i can find something more suitable....the plastic cape that he comes with is simply awful, anyway....  Enjoy!
