Thanks Lux! Believe it or not I've gotten some flack for it from the 501st because I'm not a "clean" TK. Nor am I a Sandtrooper (TD)! Scandalous I know! I really like the look the weathering gives. Adds some 'history' and the look that it's been used, not marched endless sterile 'well lit' corridors for eternity.

@Tamer: The head I used was from one of the Battle Over Endor Toys 'R Us Exclusives. It's B-Wing pilot Palso Thern. A pretty dead-on likeness :)

Here's my custom of Luke Sprywalker as a Star Wars action figure. I imagined Spry as a renegade Jedi living on the junk yard planet of Cus'Tomizah. There he lives, biding his time by practicing his jedi skills and building creations from the fodder that litters the planet dumped there by countless civilizations from countless worlds. His companion--a droid of his own creation--SPI-TRX, or Spi-Trox as his master effectionately calls him helps him gather salvage for his projects. Sprywalker survived the great Jedi purge and lived for many years leading life of peace and creativity in hiding.

So I got to thinking today while taking my next batch of photos (157 in all), what if...

A Sandtrooper were to go native? What if he dug in too deep. Went off the grid in the desert? What might that look like? Here's a possible answer,

The Tusken Trooper:

I can easily say that this is an original peice, VERY original, and makes other tusken raiders look weak

That is awesome my friend. Your back story is just right for me, thanks for creating a figure in my likeness. That Tuscan is cool as well.

Is he a Sandtrooper who joined the Tusken tribes? Is he a Tusken Raider wearing captured Sandtrooper armor? What of the Santroopers sent down to find the droids? The films never come back to them. What if while patrolling they were ambushed and made Tusken slaves? This custom definitely has lots of cool possibilities! Thrilled you guys like it as much as I do. I had wondered if anyone had ever doen a Tusken Trooper before.

And Spry, I'm so glad i hit the mark with my creation for you! having seen your creations, and a picture of you, not to mention reading many of your posts I thought, "Ok he's definitely a Jedi, he needs lots of pockets for tools and fodder, definitely a utility belt, and a big a** gun. He should probably live somewhere like Raxus Prime..." And being that I love puns I decided the perfect place would be Cus' Tomizah--junkyard of the galaxy :)

Let me know if you want the recipes ;)

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 discription of what you look like either here or via PM and tell me a bit aboit 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 ahome!

So who wants to be a custom figure?



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.
