Spud: I actually did use an AF chewie for sitting at the game table, since I couldn't think of how to make the cockpit removable!
Clonehead: glad you like the bandolier, it was indeed tedious work, but I love it!
Luke Sprywalker, Captain Lux, Fiala, Commander Charlie and Tamer: Glad you all like it!

Alright, now for something a little different... Continuing with the Hoth diorama I'm going to be doing with the Falcon, I've decided to turn a crappy looking little dinosaur thing from the Truce at Bakura micro-machines set into something I actually like, a Taun-taun!  First, a picture of the thing I started with:


And now, the process! First, I shaved off the head cone and long nose, then I took a section out of the arms, made some horns by using plastic shavings, and painted it up. Hope you all like it!

Good looking taun taun XV!
As do I. It is our lot in life, Master. Shall we find something to kill to cheer us up?

Damn XV that is some MICRO detailing.  I wish I had the steady hands you must have to be able to paint these extremely small figs.  I love the taun-taun! it's amazing. 

HB needs to make you a sig bar with "expert Micro Customizer".... as far as I'm concerned that's your new title!
