Loving that Zeltron. I can guess most of the parts but the legs. Can you advise?
Also what was the skin colour you used?

Thanks koth!  The skirt and legs were from  the POTC Elizabeth Swan, when she was in the Singapore disguise. I cut them off mid shin and added Ventress boots.  I mixed the skin color.

So I ended up being a fan of the Coruscant Nights and The Last Jedi books.  Hasbro had already given us the protocol droid I-5YQ. This series of figures came about from some goofing around with spare parts.  Once one or two of them took shape, I was on a mission to create the rest of the group show here.

First is Jax Pavan.  I decided to make him a cross between the way he was portrayed on the covers of Coruscant Nights I: Jedi Twilight, and on The Last Jedi.



This is the Sullustan Den Dhur.  We met him as far back as the Medstar duology, as an embedded reporter in the Clone Wars.  Now he is involved in the fledgling resistance movement on Coruscant.



This is the Twi'lek Laranth Terek.  She is a Gray Paladin - a sect of the Jedi who become proficient with weapons other than Lightsabers. She suffered an injury to one of her lekku in one of the Coruscant Nights books.




Finally, this is the Cerean leader of the Whiplash resistance movement, Thi Xon Yimmon.

Wow, that Twi Lek is fantastic. Off to share.

I like you Jax too. I will be honest I could easily see your Jax being more like the character Kanan in REBELS. Just a few slight color tweaks and he would be perfect.

Here's a new custom.  He doesn't have a name yet.  I call him the Super Mando.

Thanks for the feedback!!  I figured I'd put another new one out here for 501st day. 

This is a remake of my original character, Darth Temptuous.  I was never really happy with the original version.  When I head swapped the new Mara Jade, I looked at the head she came with (the one no one likes) and inspiration struck.  The hair was too big for Mara, but it seemed perfect, to me, for Temptuous.  In addition, I repainted the face and was thrilled with how much it gave a different look.

The body was a G.I.Joe Baroness with Scarlet boots.

Here's the old version of the figure


Here's the new version







And here's my original artwork for the character for reference

Nice job.  I agree.  The hair somehow looks right.

I didn't think I would ever see that head work well on anything. I agree though. It looks good! Off to share.

The "Super Mando" looks awesome.
I like his jetpack with two missiles.
