Is that a Han? Love the looks of this work in progress. Please forgive me if I have the character name wrong. Off to share again.

Thanks, Tamer. You were close! Yerka Mig uses some Han parts and the headcast looks very similar. I'm not sure what figure the cast was from. I chose it because of the shaggier hair, but after painting it I thought it kind of looked like Han as if he had been played by "Flash Gordon's" Sam Jones. At least I can scratch another update off my list.

nice to see how the figure came together. Definitely a nice update to the older version.

I agree that newer version looks much better. Off to share. At least I will get the name right this time.

Thanks, Tamer!

Here's the unpainted headcast I got from StarWarsGeek (jokabofe on eBay) which I used for Yerka Mig. I think it's something from Marvel but I have no idea who. If anyone knows which fig it was from, I'd be curious to know. It does look a lot like a Han head but with a broader face and longer hair. The overall look changed some once it was painted, too.

Thanks, DarthSinister!

I learned (from JediKnutt on the RS forum) that the headcast is Rowdy Roddy Piper. So there you go!

Now, for some strange reason I've decided to go back to astromechs. Go figure...

Great, precise paint app! Painting astromechs is one of the most frustrating things there is in customizing.

I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Painting astros has a way of doing that. I suggest frequent breaks. I took a break to work on the Cantina tables I got from Production Platform 3. Here's a lighting test I shot after drilling and painting one of the tables.

Thanks for that, Tamer! I'm excited to put my Hasbro Cantina backdrop (with modifications of course) back up. Better finish this Mos Eisley droid.

I finally found the time to finish this droid. I'm so glad to get him out of the "to-do" pile and worked in to a diorama.



After I shot the photos I noticed the missing paint apps. I'll have to fix him later.
