Is anyone working on something for this? Does anyone need some photos for inspiration? Any questions? I had hoped to see some WIP"s by now. I have done a few things to my landspeeder and hope to take a few photos in the next few days.

I'm thinking of my entry but i have a good idea! Yet i might not enter cause my action figure budget is low. :'( :( :( And figures at regular stores are so expensive!

I wanna do something for this, I got a couple pics saved. Anyone have any good Tuskin Raider pics? The ones I could find they kinda just look like reg Sand People, nothing special. What about Sandtroopers? Did he ever paint those? The other pic I got saved is real cool.. not sure if I can do it, but if I did, it'd be awesome!

Yepper, its a little over two weeks to get his all put together.

I am thinking about donating a prize for this if that will work to get a few more folks inspired!

Ok, I have been wracking my brain over what to do to entice some builds here and I am happy to report that I was contacted by Sith Happens who was kind enough to donate $30 worth of cast items to the winner (forum fan vote) of this contest. Thank you SH!

Here is a link to some of the great casts he is offering on the bay, but he also has a great casting thread here:

What a great idea for a contest. I've got some customs in progress one of which might just fit the bill!

Glad to hear people are getting started on something for this event. I am so close to completion on mine, hoped I could wrap it up yesterday but I had 3 customs that were begging to be completed as well. So I compromized and worked on them and my landspeeder. My entry will be complete in just a few days.

First off I forgot to say thanks to Sith Happens for donating a prize for this competition! I also see we have a few entries rolling in. Great entry Benjani 1976! The nature of your entry really does not require any additional photos. Same for you Jules, and great entry! That is a great looking concept Leia!
