Wow!  The attention to detail with all of these figures is nothing short of breathtaking.
I must now read every last chapter of your photonovel.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Awesome! So many diverse and great looking characters. Your paint aps are brilliant! I have been a fan for a long time and it is great seeing you post here. So many great ones I can't pick a fave, it would be at least a 8 way tie.

Thanks guys - here are some more customs, again more work from 2010:


Carnuntum  - This arena combatant is ruthless, and has slaughtered dozens of victims.  He is a fan favorite and ends the lives of his victims at the Arena of the Dead quickly.  This was for a past Yakfinities Customizing Challenge.



head - ROTS Mustafar Miner
torso - Legacy Quarren Warrior
arms - Legacy Quarren Warrior
hands - Legacy Nikto Gunner
tunic - Evolutions Mandalore
legs - Legacy Nikto Gunner



Ruricius - This arena combatant at the Arena of the Dead is one of the few humans who have managed to survive for more than one match.  He is a skilled warrior, and was once spared execution by Machentius, due to the crowd cheering for Ruricius to be spared.  Machentius respects this human, but vows that once they face off again, the human will face a painful death.   This was for a past Yakfinities Customizing Challenge.



head - ROTS Senate Guard
torso - Legacy Ak Rev
arms - Legacy Ak Rev
hands - Legacy Malaki
tunic - Legacy Malaki
legs - Legacy Plo Koon



Machentas - This arena combatant was once a Separatist Force user in the early stages of training by Count Dooku.  When the war was lost, he was badly injured and left for dead.  Found by an Imperial probe droid, his life was saved... once recovered, he found himself fighting in the Arena of the Dead.  He is currently the most feared contestant due to his uncanny abilities with a lightsaber and is known to dismember his victims, leaving them to slowly die in agony.   This was for a past Yakfinities Customizing Challenge.







head - Harry Potter figure
hair - Quinlan Vos Tri-Gate Creations
torso - Comic Pack Darth Maul
arms - Comic Pack Darth Maul
legs - Comic Pack Darth Maul



Snivvian Traveler - This is one of the few commission figures that I have done in a while, and probably the last for a while... it's for a fellow forum member, and will most likely appear in his photonovel series.  He has alternate outfits.



Green Jumpsuit Version
head - POTJ Zutton
torso - Legacy Willrow Hood
arms - TAC A-Wing Pilot
legs - TAC A-Wing Pilot
gloves - TAC A-Wing Pilot

Casual Gear Version
head - POTJ Zutton
torso - Legacy Willrow Hood
arms - TAC Jango Fett
legs - TAC Jango Fett
belt - TAC Jango Fett
gloves - Legacy Ugnaught



Zeedo Chissis - This is a long lasting character from the Rykrof Enloe series.  I figured if I were to pick the series back up, he would need an upgrade, so here's a new take on him.  



head - Target Arena Rodian
torso - Vintage Woof
arms - Vintage Woof
tunic - TAC Elis Helrot
legs - Vintage Woof
hands - Target Arena Rodian


Temeluchus - This was my last entry in the Arena Combatant Yakfinities Customizing Challenge.  This guy relies on brute strength and his immense size... he has been recently injured in a contest but proceeded to disembowel his opponent, much to the crowd's delight.









head - Hellboy 2 figure
body - Marvel Hulk Figure
weapon - LOTR figure


Death Troopers - Been wanting to do a couple of these guys for a while now.  Took a lot more work than I expected as I painted the entire armor several coats, which I don't know if was really necessary but I decided to give it a whirl with Testors acrylic white gloss paint. This was more of an experiment than anything for another project.





heads - Palptine figures
helmets - Legacy ANH Spacetrooper
bodies - Legacy ANH Spacetrooper
* One figure uses shins from a ROTS Clone Trooper, I just decided to try it for variety


Mon Calamari Traveler - Just a random alien.



head - Legacy Mon Calamari Warrior
torso - Legacy Plo Koon
arms - Legacy Plo Koon
hands - Legacy Mon Calamari Warrior
legs - Legacy Plo Koon


Rykrof Enloe - This would be the character several years after the events of Order 66.





head - SAGA Endor Rebel
torso - Vintage Endor Rebel
hands - random human hands
belt - Prince of Persia figure
legs - Prince of Persia figure

I love each and every one of these.
I always felt that the Star Wars universe was so fascinating because, no matter how high-tech the place was, you got little glimpses here and there that it was really Conan the Barbarian in space; for every space-suit and armored soldier you saw, there was some alien dude in a toga and sandals in the background.  Projects like these that really help flesh out that element of the universe are the icing on the customizing cake.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

I like all of these, but I especially dig the "clean" deathtroopers. It's a nice change from the super-bloody versions out there.
