Hey guys! still alive! just a quick update on our favorite Mad scientist Sith master!

So ive been messing with the plastidip hands idea.
And the results are such, great material, it'll work.
Im gonna have to sculpt hands, make a mold of them and coat the mold with the plastidip,
then ill place my wire fram joint in the mold over the plastidip close it up and let it cure...
then pray it works like it does in my head. :p

I started messing with the torso the other day and i was a bit skeptical of my skills at first. But it's looking better.
 just gonna have to to some patch work and lots of sanding.

Also attempted the lower  part of the upper leg. Come to find that i cannot sculpt cloth details and folds...
so if any one has a pointers or a tutorial video the can share, i would be most gracious.

Till next time.

It's a BRILLIANT idea!  Brilliant!
I noticed the packing wire that you're using on his hands.  I did the something very similar with my Cane Adiss figure.   ;D

Make sure you leave a generous gap in the knuckles.  My joints were a little tight and about 3 of Cane's wire knuckles snapped, after very few bendings, rendering them limp.

Hey guys,  I just thought i would share my self satisfaction with everyone.
The torso has turned out really nice i think.



Im still looking to get ahold of Star Wars inside, issue #130
Im lead to believe there is an artist rendition of Plageuis's or Tenebrous's sabers in the pages.
Ither way it would be cool to have. :p

CandyBlues-Star Wars Demolition

Hey Shipyarders, just want to share a project that ive had in the works for some time now. Its very dear to me.
Its played a big part in my love for the franchise when i was growing up.



http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_Demolition

Each separate project will include the characters competing in the tournament and
there respective piloted vehicle. (except Boba who just flys around with his jet pack the whole match...:p)

I've got 2 characters in the parts stage currently.
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wittin

And Boba, which i hope to bring something fresh to game.

Thats it for now. :)
