Great work the creature from the Dark Crystal really works well in the SW universe.

Thanks Ron, I couldn't really resist the chance to the Landstrider out. I'm really happy with how it fits into the 'verse.

I agree, that Landstrider is perfect in any sci fi verse. Off to share the update.

Thanks Tamer! Maybe others will do some creative dioramas using Landstriders.

What a cool idea Starchaser, and the story behind it, maybe a saddle and some reigns to be added like the Dewback and TaunTaun

Thanks Foxtrot Delta! I actually hadn't thought about saddle and reins, but now I guess I will.  :)

Inspired by both I-Am-Boba-Fett and Mandalore 25, I thought I would try my hand at Tyvokka - Plo Koon's master:



IMG]http://i1377.photobucket.com/albums/ah76/DocStarchaser/DSCF2619_zpsmppczceq.jpg[/IMG]

Recipe:
Vintage Qui-Gon torso and belt/plastic skirt
SA Chewie legs (don't know which exact version)
Saga Chewie (Boussh prisoner) head
Plo Koon lightsaber

I made the soft goods skirt and lengthened the upper arms of the Qui-Gon body and added the mid-torso wrap (both out of green stuff) to bring the figure into scale with a Wookiee. The custom now stands about the same height as the Tarfful figure. I'm not the greatest scultpor, but I think I'm satisfied with how he turned out (especially if I leave his robe on).

The jedi wookie looks great and I actually like the way the clothes hand very natural.

Great Job! I'm honored to be part of your inspiration, and I even thought it was mine for a second, but like your head choice better, I'll have to keep that in mind if I make another.

Thats awesome how you were able to make a  Qui-Gon proportionate to a wookiee. Very good, and the soft goods look great too.

Thanks (both for the comment and for your excellent work as a customizer)!

Thanks JDeck, it was a bit of a hassle, but I'm much happier with the scale.
