Title: Clone as Jedi
Post by: TheBlackDog65 on October 8, 2005, 08:39 AM

On the official site on page 2 of the upcoming DVD they have a picture of a clone dressed as a Jedi.

Though I am comfortable with my painting of figures, I would like to make this up as a custom. I am thinking of taking an AT TE head, put it on the body of a Jedi, and then use a soft robe from one of my 20 Ep. I Acessory kits that have the Jedi Robe so the hood covers the head.

So, I guess my question is, which body would anyone recommend using (I was thinking of Agen Kolar, but am fearful it may not be in scale to a Clone's body height). Any other thoughts?

I go off track next Friday and I think I am going to work on putting a dia. together of Anakin and Obi Wan cutting the hole in the Seperatist Ship.

That's a cool pic.  I remember reading in the novel that many Clones were dressed up as Jedi in the temple after Order 66.  Maybe the Agen Kolar body would work, but I would trim the skirt thing.

the rots kit fitso body would work very well for this too, it already has a shorter skirt and looks good with accesorie kit cloak from ep1.

I'm very surious: what was the purpose of their being dressed as jedi after order 66?

To deceive any Jedi or anyone showing up at the Temple after the attack the next morning. This way they could lure them in and blast em.

Well, considering this didn't make it into the film, maybe it doesn't make sense.

Ok, while watching the Cardinals play tonight vs. the Astros, I will try and make a new custom.  I need to get back into the swing of things... and a clone disguised as a Jedi sounds like a fun little project.

BlackDog, I've made two customs now because of this idea of yours... here they are.  I think I might make one or two more.  I really like making these for some reason.  There's just something so evil and traitorous about them.

Thank you, all the credit should go to Black Dog though for the inspiration.   :)
