Wookiees are always nice to see customs of.  And I have a weakness for Jedi Wookiees (because of Gungi).

Thanks Alliance Nerd! I thought Gungi was a fun character too, and I have a soft spot for Wookiees generally (I've done more Wookiee customs than anything else).

I had a few hours of downtime during the holidays and was able to finish up a couple of customs after not having time to work on anything for weeks. First up is a Neimoidian remote gunner. Neimoidians have a reputation for cowardice, but not all members of the species are afraid of war. Hailing from Enarc, Gane Trebb showed an unusual interest in military history and the heroic stories of other cultures. He put his natural aptitude for electronics and mechanics and what he learned about combat together and joined a mercenary group, first as a mechanic and eventually as a technician and operator for a variety of remote control weapons and vehicles.





Recipe:
Head - Daulty Dofine
Helmet - Zam Wessell (plus add ons - twist-ties, green stuff and model sprue bit)
Body - 25th anniversary Zartan

Oh, I just realized I left his backpack off. I gave him a Evo Trooper backpack - it seems to fit the whole "tech" vibe.

PS - The "mobile gun drone" is from a "The Corps" pack from Walmart.

The second custom is Odan Urr from the Dark Horse "Tales of the Jedi" comic series (a personal favorite of mine).





Recipe:
Head - original scuplt (by me)
Headpiece - part of the wait armor from a Geonosian warrior and a wire strap
Body/legs/feet/hands - Elis Helrot
Arms - random Marvel Universe figure (I don't remember which one).
Cape - Senate Guard outerwear

I sculpted the shoulder armor, the elbow and ankle spikes, knee pads, the top of the battery pack, and the wrist wraps out of "Green Stuff." The light-saber is a strut from a P-38 model with some wire attached. I think that's about it.

Wow, these turned out fantastic. Time to go share both before I have a morning like yesterday. I really like that Jedi. I need to find out more about the character. I need to go try to find an Omnibus of that series if I can.

Thanks so much for the front pages! Uh-oh it sounds like yesterday was a bad morning:( Hope today went better. Yeah, check out the tales of the Jedi. Odan Urr is a key character in the earliest stories and also shows up (as a very old Jedi) in the Ulic Qel-Droma/Exar Kun story line.

Thanks Stan. I work at a much slower pace than some people, but I have a few ideas still in the works.
