CandyBlues- Darth Plagueis WIP, And other project's
« on: September 08, 2014, 01:39:39 AM »
Hello peoples. Ive finally moved and pretty much all unpacked. 
Ive got alot of my projects (all various stages) in ziplock bags. Only really because i was living in a tiny little studio. 
Ive been really wanting to do a 6" figure based what has become one of my favorite characters.
 I've really been fighting the urge to throw this out on the net just because this is my first real custom.

So for now i ask that every one just keep this in the Shipyard. Thank you.
This is all Ive got for now and ill post more as i make ground.

(figures for size reference)

Lol thanks for the encouraging words Tamer, I can be a procrastinator.
But really motivated to keep working on this.

Wow, each finger will have separate articulation. You are going all out. Nice!

Lol not so much articulated, just more poseable.
As far as i can remember about toys that had wires in them... They broke...
Then again i played with them relentlessly. Like im sure alot of other kids did.
 Fortunately this will just be standing around looking cool. :) 

What I,ve been working on the last few days is getting the frame scaled and put together.
For any one that read the book, i think im gonna try and mix the description given in the book of Plageuis and the 3'75 scale figure.
I'm gonna go with the 3" figures shin guards on the boots.

Nice choice, glad to hear you read the book and are using it in this project. When taking on a character designed by someone else I always want to learn everything I can about the character, because the knowledge tends to come in handy. Super job on the scale too it looks really good!

Looks impressive to me. I can't imagine the level of madness it takes to attempt something like this. Anxiously awaiting an update.
