Love the chubby mando, and the blooded zombie aliens. Very creative.

Here's Elias' latest custom action figure.  A Nightsister Assassin.  I think he did an awesome Dad and I'm really proud when I see the super cool customs he continues to crank out.  This is his favorite custom out of all the figures he has made so far and I can see why.  This was the first figure that he asked to bring back home with him to his mom's house after he completed it.

He is very talented.  I am doing a feature on him in January that will feature the rest of his work.

The finished lineup looks impressive; just got back from a stop over at your blog.

I was already in the process of working on my own TFUII Starkiller (battle arena), but now I've got to step it up a notch after seeing DarthDusty's work.  Looks like you grabbed an awesome fig!

Totally did.  I just finished a video featuring other action figures Darth Dusty created.  I'll be posting it tomorrow for the new year.

Glad you liked our 2012 Recap video featuring all the figures Elias and I made this year:

Elias and I are planning on banging out a few of NPKB this weekend, but I did take a few minutes today to create this quick no paint kitbash.  I really love him on so many levels.  I think he's my new favorite Endor Rebel. Nothing fancy, just classic kitbashing. To create the figure I used the hands, feet, and head of a POTF Momaw Nadon and made sure that when I added them to the body of a Vintage Orimaarko that I kept the articulation of the Vintage figure.  I made the head ball jointed, kept the swivel wrists, and added a swivel where both feet met the legs by utilizing a clear styrene rod to connect them.  The Ithorian only took a few minutes to make.  The longest part of the entire process was waiting for the krazy glue to dry.  If you like the figure as much as me, I recommend making one of your own.  It's too easy not to.
