Thanks for the compliments!

The saber is from two episode 3 Anakin sabers. I trimmed the hilts down and glued them together, then sculpted a little on top of them so that they would fit in the microman hands(they are a little oversized.)

That Bo-Katan is off the hook! An expression I've never used before... but apparently that was the phrase that came to mind. The others are awesome too.
The exploits of my life are less canonical than they are legendary.

Thanks Hal! I'm not sure I've ever used it either, but I appreciate it nonetheless!

The Tales of the Jedi figures are great. I've always wanted to try my hand at an Odan Urr. The head sculpt is great. I love the graphic you used to develop Exar Kun. Hasbro should take notes.

Wow, thanks for the compliments, Starchaser. Means a lot! I just finished reading the Tales of the Jedi comics the other day, they were great.

That's the best Odan-Urr head sculpt I've ever seen. Great Job!

Tamer, you should definitely look into them. They're great!

And thanks DarthSinister, means a lot! That was my first attempt at sculpting a head, glad that you like it.  :)

Here's a Jacen Solo I made a while back, I just forgot to post him.

The head is one of the comic pack Luke heads, with a little bit of extra hair sculpted on. I plan on either buying a Jacen solo and using that head, or trying to sculpt a better one.
The body was a Winter Soldier, and the cape is from the Concept Art Ki-Adi-Mundi.

This is what I imagined the GAG (Galactic Alliance  Guard) uniform looking like when I read the Legacy of the Force series. Jacen was the head of the Guard, and eventually started wearing the uniform instead of traditional Jedi robes. Hope you like him!








Playing around with a bunch of different filters I came up with this image, and loved it. It really kind of symbolizes how Jacen is in the books.

That is magnificent! The different hair completely changes the way his face looks. Great job on the entire piece! He looks menacing, distant, and cold. Bloody perfect.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

I really like your rendering of Jacen. The use of the Luke head is clever (especially considering the price of Jacen figures!?!). I would love to see the outcome of your attempt at sculting a new head.

Great work!
Another good example how useful Marvel figures are for Star Wars custom figures.

Re: Kelcken's customs: Exar Kun update

Thanks for all of the kind words! It means a lot.

Unfortunately, I've been out of town for around a month, and was not able to do anything. Since I've gotten back, however, I do have a small update!

Exar Kun's saber hilts were too small to stay in the microman hands, so I sculpted around the originals! They use magnets to connect together, to the blades, and the to the belt. I did not use any reference images, just sculpted what I thought would look good. Let me know what you think!







Sorry for the image quality, I don't have a digital camera, and my phone camera has a problem with focusing on smaller details.
