I have been trying to work a version of that droid myself. But, I can't seem to find the right size fishing bobbers. Plus, I don't have the arms. I will have to  figure something out. If you have any tips or WIP pics that could help, let me know.

Saw your Bantha Droid in the "Favorite Customs" thread.  Fishing bobbers!  That's a bit of genius.  If you have suggestions on brand/size/purchase location, I'm interested.  Thanks!

Thank you for the  kind feed back!  The fishing bobbers were bought at a sporting goods store and were i am assuming regular size as far as a brand  for the love of god i cant remember  i saw the pair and just snatched them . but they can be found at any sporting goods store .  They were not expensive at all arount the $3.00 for each . Hope that helps.

Hi gang just a quick update !  wanted to take a break from the cantina  figures  and have a go at some skiff guards  i wanted to get more customs done but like everybody here i have been busy and can only get to work on the customs when i can . ok so I did an up date to Barada  and my newest custom which should be made by Hasbro  Vedain .  I also made a color accurate cz-3 which would be so easy for Hasbro to make and since they are famous for repaints lol   I have lots of good stuff coming and another update to a classic figure . Btw if anyone can help out i would like to know if anyone can share some pointers on how to make articulated arms stay in the shoulder cavity really secure  of an older potj figure please let me know   in the meantime enjoy !!! Back soon

Great update. I am still reeling from your awesome Hammerhead. I agree, I don't know why Hasbro won't do some of these.

Off to share your update.

Great job on CZ-3! Love that droid and have repainted mine too. On the Skiff guards and their arm joints. You have to use a cone shaped dremel bit to remove some plastic in their arm pit. Do this until the baal of the arm is inset in the shoulder properly. Don't go too deep while making the hole bigger around or you will remove the plastic that holds the peg on the arm. If you do, get back to me I have 2 fixes for that too. LOVE the ithorian! I want one just like him now! and to think I left a Gungan at 5 Below 2 weeks ago.

Hello again ! A quick update this time . I was finally able to paint and finish Momaw Nadon from the no paint kit bash you will see also the fantastic card work again from Darth Streams customs which he is in the process of making the next batch of cards for me and he did a phenomenal  job of converting a few black and whit photos to color  which they will be up soon as well  . The last one i have for now is a updated articulated Snaggletooth/Zutton with correct color hair and painted face  enjoy !!
