Figure must be an all-new creation and can't have been posted here or anywhere else in the past.

Question: can I post WIP pics on my FB page and/or other forums as well?

OOOH, cool, I have a similar idea for my helmet, Spartan looking, not sure if I'm gonna go with the hairy top or not, we'll see...

Yeah, it's a trip, creating those, as well as attaching them.  I finshed 'em up today, and FINALLY found a way to put them on that I'm happy with, so, I'll have pics after I paint the helmet I'm attaching them to...

I forgot to resize the image, sorry my fault.




Pretty cool Mando!  I always thought those Skorr legs were a bit too short for any figure, but they really don't look bad at all on this guy.  Nice parts selections!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Thanks JEDIMERC. I had the same concern about the legs, they are rather short, but Skorr's torso is very tricky to change the legs, so i chose to leave them.  By the way! My first front page. Can you see the smile on my face!!!!! Thanks Tamer.

*THIS IS MY ENTRY

Hello Yarders, is better to be feared or be respected? and I say is too much to ask both? for that reason I would like to humbly present to you the firts female Manda'lor in history

Ariatne's a formidable woman in all regards -- extremely intelligent, incorruptible, passionate and beautiful, with a great devotion to war and the old ways of the mandalorian combat

Her name is Ariatne Kryze was a another genetical experiment of the kaminoans mixing the DNA's from Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jango Fett it was supposed to be male but a without the extra genome "Y" on the fecundation progress the zygote turns into a female nine months later the kaminoans realized about they mistake but it was to late to stop the process, one year after that the empire storm the kamino cloning facilties  destroying most of their experiments  unborn and babies too, but Boba Fett had compassion for the little girl and take her to Mandalore there the ducthess Satine adopted her and knowing that her was the unofficial "daugther" of Obi-Wan do not hesitate to give her last name to the baby and while the duchess was taught the ideals of peace and justice Ariatne always thought in fighting to achieve her objectives and goals, with the dead of his adoptive mother brought a great civil war between mandalorians and deathwatch there was where he showed all her potential she and her real Mandalorians in a surprise move they killed all the leaders of the clans without them her campaign of mandalorian unification was a complete success after that she declared herself  Mandalore the Avenger.
