Coming in at 7 inches I was quite happy with this figure.

Recipe is the ToyRocket Mortal Kombat Goro, and Dexter Jester head, hands & feet. An old 1/12 Jedi belt & fabric for clothes & then AALOT of green stuff sculpt. Believe it or not sabers are made from chop sticks. Thx for the look.

looks really cool....

but,  If he stands at 7" then he isn't 1:6th sale... that would mean he was 12 inches tall.

http://actionfigures.about.com/od/gettingstarted/a/action_figure_scales.htm

Star wars black series figures which stand at 6" tall are 1:12th scale (every inch of the figure represents 12 inches in a life sized figure).
Since krell did stand a little taller than his clones I'd call him a 1:12th scale, seeing as his extra inch would result in an extra foot of height if he was scaled up to full size.

All that being said, you made this from a standard  4inch, 1:18th scale dexter head right?  Does the resulting figure's head look small when standing next to a black series figure?  Just wondering how he'd look while standing next to the black series 6" clones that will be coming out.

the sabers from chop sticks are a great touch.

I think he meant six inch scale, heaven knows I have been doing this awhile and can't keep up with em either.

I like the look of it. I did guess correctly about the Mortal Kombat figure. I thought that one might work good for a Krell custom.

I confess, I'm no expert on size scales but I will say that the Dexter head was bigger than the original Goro head from ToyRocket so I don't see any major size issues, but again I'm a novice-newbie at best. Thx for the input guys.

Great job! If you can improve the lightsabers or acquire some extra 6" sabers then I would say he's complete.

I bet it's pretty close.  But Dexter/krell's head was pretty large compared to the normal human head.  It'd be interesting to see this one next to a 6" stormtrooper.

Here's what you asked for my friend, Krell & a black series trooper.

I like it. Working on one myself now, couldn't get my hands on a good goro figure, eBay had a $30 price tag I was not willing to pay. Did get a Dexter Jettster figure for $5, that was exciting. Love the figure, hope mine comes out half as nice.

it could be slightly bigger, but honestly it looks fantastic!  I love it.  After looking up some quick reference images from the clone wars episode he looks about right.
