Thanks for your comments. Here's a few more from The Force Awakens.
First Order Stormtrooper (Jakku): TBS or TVC First Order Stormtrooper with modified TFA Single Carded Squad Leader's Heavy Gunner ammo vest (made with pieces from 2). Slightly repainted backpack from TFA Single Carded First Order Snowtrooper.



Rey (Starkiller Base Snowspeeder Chase): TBS or TVC Rey (Jakku) with TBS Finn (Jakku) jacket, forearms, and upper arms (hollowed out as sleeves and placed over Rey's existing upper arms). Hands from TBS Toryn Farr. Head from Force-Link Rey (Island Journey). I made the upper arms into sleeves because the full arm with shoulder joint looked too big. I quite like how the jacket looks a bit oversized on her, because that's how it would be with it being Finn's (Poe's) jacket.

Finn (Starkiller Base Snowspeeder Chase): TBS Finn (Jakku) with repainted and slightly modified arms from Comic 2-Pack Fixer Loneozner. I used the arms from this figure on the Rey custom.

Really excellent execution on these figures! The soft goods work on Rey (Jakku) is outstanding. I think you made a great call with the "sleeve" approach to the coat on the speeder chase Rey as well. This was an excellent set of builds.

Thanks for your comments. Here's some modifications to the TVC Rey (Island Journey) figure. I really like this figure of Rey, but I just wanted to improve it a bit to do alternate versions.

Rey (Ahch-To Training): TVC Rey (Island Journey) with forearms replaced with modified elbow joints from TBS Princess Leia Organa, this is to use interchangeable forearms:
• Gauntlet forearms modified from Force-Link Rey (Island Journey).
• Alternate forearms for lightsaber training scene (no leather wrist strap), slightly modified from TVC Rey (Jakku) with hands from TBS Toryn Farr.
Skirt section from TVC Rey (Island Journey) with hoster belt cut and dremelled off. Uses holster belt section and waistcoat from Force-Link Rey (Island Jouney).



This is the regular TVC Rey (Island Journey) figure with a custom soft goods poncho made out of material from TBS 6" Rey (Island Journey). In images 5-7 the poncho looks darker because it is actually wet.



Rey (Ahch-To Mirror Cave): TVC Rey (Island Journey) with repainted waistcoat for wet look. Head slightly modified from Force-Link Rey (Jedi Training) with repainted hair for wet look.

Wow, excellent attention to small details that make a "definitive" training Rey. This project turned out really well.

Thanks again for your comments. Here's a TBS 6" Rey (Jakku) customised with soft goods wrap and skirt. The wrap is glued over the existing torso. Custom synthetic leather belt with bag cut from the original. Head from TBS 6" Rey (Island Journey).

Thanks again everyone for your comments.

Rey (Scavenger/Speeder) with soft goods headgear: This is the TBS 6" Rey that came with the speeder, with the head from TBS 6" Rey (Island Journey) and custom soft goods headgear, made from the material of 2x Episode 1 Tatooine Accessory Set ponchos. Goggles cut from the speeder head and fitted with elastic. Repainted backpack with a removable flask. The flask was made by glueing the top and bottom pieces, cut from the backpack, to a circular piece of plastic for the middle.

Thank you all for your comments, I'm pleased you're liking the customised Reys and soft goods. Here's another Black Series 6" one, this time from the Expanded Universe.

Dark Side Rey: Hands, lower torso & legs from TBS 6" Sergeant Jyn Erso (Jedha). Modified upper torso, belt, head, arms, and feet from TBS 6" Rey (Jedi Training). Custom soft goods tabard/sash made from satin ribbon. Skirt from TBS/TVC 3.75" Kylo Ren.



I have posted some images of this figure against backgrounds on my gallery thread, here's a taster and the link: http://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=10499.msg211293#msg211293
