XRFIWR's Customs - Clone Concepts
« on: March 22, 2011, 06:23:51 PM »
Okay, so this was not an original idea, but once my kids saw pictures of this guy online that's all they could talk about.  SO here's my first completed custom, Sergeant Boomer.  

This was a trial and error experience, but I'm please with how it turned out.  Though once my kids see the completed version with weathering in the morning I suspect they are going to want all their clones weathered at the very least.

Welcome to the boards!  Very nice for a first attempt; your kids should be proud...and looks like you'll be kept busy weathering some clones in the near future!  Looking forward to seeing more in the future!

Nice Boomer.  Looks kind of like mine, except you have a more accurate color scheme.  Any chance we can see any clearer pictures?

I think I need a better camera and/or photo booth to get better pictures on this.  But I'll work on it.

It looks like it is very nice. Get me some slightly clearer pics and I will get that on the fp.

Nice looking figure! I would try taking some pics outside, just out of direct sunlight.

Trusty iPhone 4 takes better pictures than my digital camera.  Pics are too high resolution so I have to try through Flickr.  May be a little trial and error here.  

Thanks for all the kind words.  I really appreciate all the help on this in the Resources and References Forum.  If you have suggestions on how I can improve my next one let me know.  I'll be working on an ARC Trooper right after I take a shot at this mini rig contest.

Yeah, took me a few tries, but I figured it out eventually too.   Thanks Doc.
