Excellent work.
The amount of details on that Drumheller Harp is amazing.
Thank you very much for the WIP pics.

In keeping with my instrument theme, Max finally has an output speaker...



And Salacious Crumb has somewhere to sit while he gets his groove on.

I dabble in the Star Wars Universe of Toys... I rip apart little plastic people and turn them into other plastic people. Sometimes I take pictures of them and post them.

Thank you, sir!

Jabba's Palace has been a bit of an obsession these last few months. I've shared a few figures on other boards which I've worked in, between building and tweaking band instruments:

Reworked an old Shasa Tiel (from early 2000's)


New:


Wrist articulation was added making new wrist pegs out of InstaMorph.


Repainted Bubo


And EV-9D9 got some new articulation:

Nice, I am really starting to see instamorph as a pretty cool project. It wasn't too soft to do the wrist pegs? Looks like it wasn't.

Back to the front page.

After jamming the soft IM into the wrist hole I let it cool completely before removing it, used the sanding wheel on my Dremel to shave off the extra and then superglued it to the hands. So far it's holding up fine. I think I'll have to rework the shoulder area due to paint rub before I have to fix the hands.  :)

Add another reason why I am going to have to invest in some instamorph.  Nice Shasa Tiel there!

It is possible that I am not a fan of painting astromechs. Geez!



I know I can't rush through it, but the sooner he's done the better. Little bugger is giving me a headache!

I am always in awe of anyone who can even attempt to paint an astromech. The fine lines are something I couldn't even begin to handle. Keep it going!

I understand.  I absolutely *hate* trying to paint astromechs.
