Almost forgot to finish my Darth Talon for this contest. As stated before I based it off of a Talon design from a Star Wars game that never happened. Final

You really nailed it, man!

Thanks. This is the first 3 3/4 I've worked in a while. Been so busy with a black series Fett and 6 inch females. This was admittedly a rush job but I'm actually quite happy with it

Hey guys & girls, here's my final submission pics as I won't have time to get the final details done in the timescale left since that thing called work keeps getting in the way!! (Only really needs minor paint touch ups and securing the shoulder pads properly.)

So, without anymore stalling for time, may I present Darth Vetous, Sith inquisitor from the old republic era.
His parts list is on page 1, but I've now included an alternate helmeted head which is basically just a repainted Tron head.
The final pic includes a few WIP statues I'm working on as part of a diorama, and a zombies' victim that is yet to be blooded up to go with my Left4Dead figures I'll share soon!!

Thanks, and good luck to everyone with your entries!!

I have enjoyed visiting this site as a guest for several years and finally have had the time to start customizing. Its a delight to contribute in a small way to a site with such passion for Star Wars and skill in customizing.

My entry was inspired by Dark Horse's Clone Wars: In Service of the Republic. This is a Khormai mercenary. I've named him Uriss Holn. He left Khorm during the Clone Wars to join a pro-Republic mercenary unit called Harker's Irregulars as a heavy gunner.





The body is the Mustafar Miner, the gun from the EU Republic Trooper, the pack is the cooling pack from the Phantom Menace Tatooine Accessories pack, and the head is from a Mini-mates Battle Beasts Gruntos figure. (Updated the photos for a clearer picture.)

Hope you like it.

Finished this figure this morning. Here is my entry. This is a custom Elomin female Jedi Master. Her name is TE CORSO and she can be seen in the SW Legacy comics. Her head is a custom cast resin head molded from the original that I sculpted. This is the 3rd version of this character I have made.
DarthStreams, you made a great looking figure using that cast Odan Urr head you got from me. Too cool !  I still have not had time to finish my Odan Urr figure yet. Awesome work by everyone so far !

Wow! I have been out all week dealing with an unscheduled surgery for my daughter (all ended well I am happy to report) and see there is some great activity here. Wow, such awesome figures. Thank you all for contributing here. I am gonna do a front page reminder and try to get sorted out with all the great updates here, but had to post on this before my day left me.
