RC-1136 shares four new customs...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, February 27 2022

"CIS Scientist/Commander (still needs a name):

Republic Navy Ship Captain (still needs a name):

Younger Kuiil (part of the Republic Engineering Corps - prior to Imperial enslavement):

Updated Jeeg (Jawa character I made, now using offworld Jawa body).


All of these are awesome, but man that Scientist for the win!



Elias is back with a new custom...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, February 27 2022

"PURCHASE A "MARROK" FLEXIBLE RESIN CAST from REBEL KID CREATIONS!

To produce the Marrok, I created a 3D print file of the character that I designed in Blender. I then scaled the model in Chitubox as an accessory for The Clone Wars Embo action figure and when finished, printed it on a our Longer Orange 30 resin printer. After we had a successful print, we molded that print with Smooth-On Mold Max 14NV and cast the figure in Smooth Cast 61D resin. Once taken out of the pressure pot and demolded, Dad and I took turns applying the paint to our figure and I painted in the final details. We love how he looks next to Embo!

Once we placed the character on our collection shelf, we then donated our mold to Rebel Kid Creations so our sculpt could be available to all of you to add to your own collections."

Now that is some awesome designing. Definitely a must have for TCW Customizers and Collectors.



Raylen shares two new custom figures...
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, February 27 2022

"Behind the scenes" customs. The C-3PO one I've seen done before. I think it was actually the first custom I ever did. Yeah, he should have the balaclava on but I was starting off simple. The droid head is lightly glued on so he can actually hold it. The next custom I did just because The Jar Jar head as a hat always made me laugh."




The forums are back!
-- Posted by Tamer on Sunday, February 27 2022

Well after a lot of hours of narrowing down problems we have gotten the forums back up and running.

I have to credit our web host for sticking with me as there are a lot of files in smf forums we had to check to resolve the issue.

Click here to get back to the forums.



Back up except for the forums!
-- Posted by Tamer on Saturday, February 26 2022

Well it was definitely one of those Fridays for me. Good news is most of the site is back up and running with only the forums being down for now.

Thank you for your patience while we get the forums working and put safeguards in place to make sure this doesn't happen again!

Don't forget you can always post on our Facebook Page while you are waiting for the forums to come back.

Ron Hembling is back with a Remnant Trooper...
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, February 24 2022
"Hi All,


SubjectImperial Remnant Trooper 1:12 scale from concept art on google
.

Recipe.

Trooper - is the trooper from the Mandalorian series and is from Hasbro's Black series line and I trimmed down his bicep and thigh armour to fit the shirt and pants which are from GPSLOT on Ebay and I trimmed them down so they would fit the figure.

I dyed the clothes and once dry gave them a light brown dry brush and the scarf is some old cloth I had in my parts box and the garters where made using another piece of cloth in the parts parts and then painted.
The belt is a Jango Fett belt with holsters removed and then I added different pouches and pieces from the parts box, the weapon was made using different weapon parts form the Black series line with some plastic and plastic rod added and the sling is a piece of pleather with strips of baby wipes added.

Base - is high density foam cut to size and the blaster is an old Bandai blaster I had in my parts box and the helmet in the sand was from an older project which was painted and weathered.
The sand was done my mixing spakfilla with blended potty mix and mixed and applied to the base and while it was still wet I sprinkled fine sand over it and then painted it.

Ron"

Yep, Ron still has the magic!



Starchaser is back with an update...
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, February 24 2022

"I'm a big fan of Legends/EU because of the additional alien species that help populate the Star Wars universe. I've had the idea to build a member of the Tunroth species (from the ancient RPG) for a long time and had the torso of the Klatooine drummer from Jabba's palace, which I thought would work great. When I happened upon the old Space Precinct figures in a vintage toy store, I realized I could probably actually build one."

I really like the look of this one!

Mando Muggle makes a custom Darksaber...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, February 18 2022

"I can bring you in warm... or I can bring you in cold."

Made a custom light-up Darksaber from a Gundam LED kit.

The handle is a tiny lil battery stick and I printed parts of the Darksaber at a custom size and carved away at the orignal blade that it game with to look more like the Darksaber.

I then cut out a stencil for the black part of the blade. The lights looks better in person."

Looks awesome to me.

Star Fall is back with a great Valentine's Day Custom...
-- Posted by Tamer on Thursday, February 17 2022

"Greetings ISY! Lot's has happened since I last posted, both personally and professionally, in my life. But I managed to squeeze in time to work up a new custom Star Wars figure that was a lot of fun to do.

I rarely do 1:12 scale as you know, so this was a fun challenge. My girlfriend is a huge Star Wars fan and loves all things Mando, so for one of her Valentine's Day gifts, I surprised her with a custom version of herself as a Mandalorian! Her name is Sam (mine is too. What are the odds? Never tell me the odds!) and I call her Samdalorian haha."

RCW Creations shares a diorama update...
-- Posted by Tamer on Wednesday, February 16 2022

"To get to where I am now, I etched panels to the underneath of both the platforms and sprayed the bottom one steel and the top one gunmetal grey. I sprayed the edging of the platform with steel. For stability of the landing platform, I have added braces to either side of the two towers, otherwise, everything would have to land centrally on the platform and not be too heavy. I also added extra door frames to the upper floor and painted all frames a blue/grey colour."

It just gets better and better with each update.

Starchaser gives us a Mudrunner...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, February 15 2022

"Iglean Mud-Runners: so named because of their ability to run across the scalding wet mud flats of their native planet.

For three decades Imperial zoologists insisted they were non-sentient so they suffered as "game" to various big game hunters. The hunting was stopped by interference of the Jedi-in-hiding Erris Raek (seen on page 44 of this thread). In fact, they were quite sentient and call themselves the Cha’Qua’Doc."

I love the body style on this one. They sure do look to me like they could run on some mud!

Fiala Fernbrugg shows us a TIE Crawler...
-- Posted by Tamer on Monday, February 14 2022

"TIE crawler

The TIE crawler, or century tank, was a model of tank that resembled a TIE starfighter cockpit suspended between two tank treads. It was used to climb tall hill of debris.
[wookieepedia: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/TIE_crawler]

Here is my first 3D printed Star Wars model kit. I used a Formlabs 3D sinter powder printer. The printed cockpit was not very detailed so I decided to use a Revell TIE Interceptor cockpit instead. The model was painted with Revell and Tamiya paints.

I hope you like it."

Ron Hembling is back with Buzz Lightyear...
-- Posted by Tamer on Friday, February 11 2022

"Hi All,

Buzz Lightyear 7".

Recipe.

Buzz - was made using a Spartan MKV from Jazware and the head is from Tecotoys and is a 1:35 scale 3D print and I just resized it to 7" scale. I decided to go with a jetpack and have the rockets on the end and rockets/thrusters on the bottom of the pack which were all made using Lego parts. The dome is from a UFO from Pegasus models and is from the Alpha Centauri 1:32 kit and I used plastic card for the edging and the laser on his right arm is from a 1:18 scale gun.

Base - is from a Bandai 1:144 scale Millennium Falcon kit and the ground work was done using a plaster mould for the large rock from Woodland Scenics and the smaller rocks I used kitty litter and the dirt is a mix of spakfilla and sand."

I have to say this is the first real type version of him I have seen and he looks awesome!

Don shares a new Klatoonian...
-- Posted by Tamer on Tuesday, February 8 2022

"I may have mentioned; those Klatoonian meatpackers had me wishing for more Klatoonian headsculpts to customize. So I took another look at the 1999 cinema scene skiff guards Barada figure. I had to cut off the old-style neck peg, and dremel out the head to fit a modern neck peg. I found some parts that look pretty good together (those are Marauder Task force legs with Boba Fett feet), and some paint."

Looks like it turned out great to me.

Don shares how to make a great Slaughterhouse Worker...
-- Posted by Tamer on Saturday, February 5 2022
"Custom tip: ;)
If you want a custom Klatoonian slaughterhouse worker, but you don't want to ruin your only (expensive) Tarados Gon figure here is your solution!

The apron from the (still affordable) 1998 Freeze Frame Ugnaught figure fits Tarados Gon quite well, and looks pretty good. You could even paint some weathering or gore on the apron without damaging the Tarados figure.

(The cleaver accessory is from the Zombie Lab figure line.)"

Now this is just a great recipe and you don't have to ruin your Tarados Gon!

UPDATE: I took some time to get you a few links so you could outfit your Taradson Gon figure like Don has done.

Figures/Ecto-1 - the figures are 3D resin printed and I picked the up from POP Minis https://www.myminifactory.com/users/PopMinis and the Ecto-1 is from Vivid Toys, I painted the figures and Ecto-1 with Vallejo Paints.

Base - is high density foam and the building is made using foam/cardboard and plastic card, the antenna's are made using thin plastic rod and the foot path is foam with the sections marked out in pencil and the fire hydrant is a resin 3D print I got of Thingiverse.
