Re: Jon's customs - Jolee Bindo & Canderous Ordo

Back to the KOTOR figure work, here's Jolee Bindo. Mostly a reworked Mace Windu figure with the skirt trimmed, and the torso fabric creases filled in with greenstuff, repainted with arms from a TVC Naboo Royal Guard and a Stass Allie saber. Not the most complex I've done, but he fits in well with the rest of my KOTOR customs!



And here's Canderous Ordo. He's got the Royal Naboo Guard legs and torso (ribs filled in with greenstuff), a TVC AT-AT driver head with the sideburns shaved off, Talon Karrde's arms, Han Solo's vest and an Evo Trooper's gun.



Thanks to everyone for all the comments on my previous figures, the feedback is really appreciated! I'm finally starting to get closer to rounding out the KOTOR set. (On that note, if anyone has a spare GI Joe Mouse head laying around, I'd love to buy it from you!)

Cool bunch of customs! Its amazing how something like a shaving sideburns makes a completely different looking headsculpt. If you hadn't told me I'd never know. That's the toughy, creating new looking heads. Well done.

Thanks guys!

I was pretty surprised too, a couple touches really go a long way, especially at this scale. I'm looking forward to finishing the set because together they look even better, I think. You kind of lose imperfections in all the extra information and it helps with the context.

Re: Jon's customs - Atton Rand & G0-T0

Here's Atton Rand and a quick G0-T0 from KOTOR2. I've had Atton 90% finished for ages, but was having a hard time finding a head I liked. I'm pretty happy with the likeness, took me forever to find the right parts for his weird triple shoulder vest thing.

Atton recipe:
Talon Karrde torso, legs and jacket, with the torso reworked in greenstuff for the shirt flaps.
TVC Nikto arms
GI Joe Retaliation Mouse head
30th Anniversary AT-RT driver hands

G0-T0 is made from the POTF2 IT-O Interrogation droid, hacked apart, holes patched and flipped over with new, more minimal tools added to look more like the droid from the game.

Thanks Tamer! Believe it or not, it's just the camera on an iPhone 5. Some definitely come out better than others.

I'm really enjoying the KOTOR figures a lot Jon. They are working really well. I particularly like Atton Rand and appreciate the recipe too. Thanks!

Re: Jon's customs - Jyn Erso
« Reply #72 on: August 15, 2016, 10:21:08 PM »
Starting to get pumped for Rogue One, so I thought I'd try my hand at Jyn Erso in both styles she's shown in the trailers. The first is in modified tie fighter gear shown at the end of the teaser trailer, and the second is the regular outfit from most of the shots. I just made one head for swapping between figures for consistency, I may eventually make a second, but no immediate plans.

Version 1 Recipe:
Mauler Mithel body, with the large flat area on the chest sanded down and the back patch filled with greenstuff and drilled out to accommodate the handles shown sticking out in the trailer. The handles are saber hilts. The head is a heavily modified Rey head, lots cut off, new hair sculpted with greenstuff, and repainted.

Version 2 Recipe:
This one was a ton of stuff hacked into one.
-Boots from a Jedi Legacy Luke Skywalker, pinned and glued to the lower legs and thighs of Infinities Jedi Leia.
-Hip piece from Stass Allie
-Chest from Juno Eclipse, with the neck carved out and replaced with Aayla Secura's
-Arms from Asajj Ventress (with greenstuff sleeves added)
-Vest modifed from Resistance Rey
-Holster from Aurra Sing
-Head modified from Jakku Rey

Thanks Tamer! I was surprised how much I liked that one too, when I started, that one was almost an afterthought that I ended up really enjoying.
