Hi there guys!!

Thanks for all the comments and tips

I've been away for too much time. All that life situations and stuff. Anyway, I'm back and with some new work and projects.

First, I want to show you a custom figure. It was an idea to make a nautolan security officer. He is a character of my RPG game and will appear in another future project.
This character was created to represent a tough guy, with some scars and cyberware. The type of character who fought his way up to the top. A veteran indeed. I used Kit Fisto's head from the animated series and the mandalorian body from Jaster Mereel and Montross comic pack.

I've changed the head. Then I put some modelling skills at use, creating a more agressive looking to the figure.

Later, put everything together then...PAINTED!!!

I choose weathering painting for the holsters and red+yellow pattern for the armor pieces. With white details.
For the skin, dark green and extra green freckles.

Enjoy!

Wow, awesome painting and sculpting work on this guy! I love his cybernetic eye.

Very nice. This style reminds me of another customizer I liked from year's past. I can't put my finger on it yet though.

Anyhow, I like this one a lot and he is now sporting on our front page.

Amazing Nautilan Mando. How will you ever make a helmet for him?
I've had a similar project planned with a Bossk head waiting to go on a Jango body.
Thanks for the step by step on the face sculpt. Very helpful.

Thanks to all for the comments and thanks for the frontpage selection !!!

I'm anxious to see your helmet design, Sjefke!!! When it's done, show us! I don't create a helmet because this character is not a mando (lol... despite his appearence

). But the suggestion is amazing. I really like the visual of "non-human-heads-helmets". I will think about it.

For the modelling, I've used epoxi clay. And for the crude cyber-eye, I've used a bit of pvc (Im not sure what is the english name of it. It's like a white plastic, used in credcards, and it's sold in sticks or boards)

Great job on the figure. I like the color scheme chosen for the armor. You did a great job on the sculpt and tutorial.

Hi guys! Thanks for all the suggestions and posts. I really aprecciate all the comments here in ISY. It's awesome receive all that feedback. To me, represents a good opportunity to learn and grow.

So, when I realised that many friends liked this nautolan custom, I invited him to visit my own facebook. And the meeting of creature and creator was...weird.

Ok guys! I know that his armor looks like a mandalorian. LOL

But if he's a bad and tough guy, I like to imagine what he will thinks about it...

I will show you...

... that was really intense... indeed!!!

Hi friends !!

Recently, I've receive a request. A friend of mine wish a Wonder Woman created upon a Barbie doll base. I know ISY is focused in Star Wars Universe primarily, but like my Old Han, I think it will be nice to show you all that "work in progress" style of pictures. The work is not finished, but I will post the modeling process.

The only one directive of this work was: "the custom should be like a Barbie Wonder Woman". As if it was part of some special collection. It will not pretend to be realistic like "movie-action-figures"

Enjoy
