Really taking shape, and very good base body to use.
I'm interested in how the chest plate turns out, cool so far.

My friend across the pond, Colin (Colin's Customs), inspired me to tackle the head of Jabba's entourage. He had used the Daultay Dofine body as a base to rework Bib Fortuna (which was a brilliant idea in my opinion). Here's my take on Bib Fortuna for Yakfinities #52.

Thanks Tamer and DarthSinister! I'm fairly pleased with him though I may take another stab at the chest armor and try to get it a little thinner.

Sure enough... as soon as I "finish" and take pictures I see what I want to fix.

First off, I didn't like that the placket on the original figure wasn't hidden by the chest armor. Since I found it distracting, I placed some InstaMorph over it so it would be smooth.



I also wanted to see if I could redo the armor and make it thinner.



I also missed the ability to sheath the knife so I added some elastic.

Thanks, Tamer!

Just for fun, here's a group shot I took for my FB cover.

I really love the upgrades, Custom Jedi. 
Did you take any WIPs of the mouth fix and did you tackle those loose seams of his lekku?

Thanks, everybody! I'm glad I had a vintage Bib because it was invaluable on creating the cloak and armor. I still see things I'd do differently but I'm fairly happy with how the gang is coming along.

If I'd had any flexible sculpey I would have filled the lekku seams, but the additional paint aps diminish them somewhat. I may work that into the second Bib head that I have. I only have one bad in-process pic of the lower jaw & lip work.
