Star Wars Action Figures / Re: ARC Big guns...***2/19/06 w/new WIP pic at bottom***
« on: February 20, 2006, 11:17 PM »
Well here is my WIP, adjusted writing ARC so far. 

I moved the writing to his armor, I think it looks better there.



I cleaned up the 'mowhawk' area on his helmet, and am just going to leave it like it is.  I'm going to clean up the paint on his arms as well.



I just need a Kama for him...and for my heavy gunner.  Any leads would be appreciated.

Thanks

Dre

I'm also trying to work out the mechanics of the quadgun one, I have some ideas, but nothing concrete yet. When I do, I'll share them with you :)

I've seen a couple of Quad-gun customs, and they both used the quad gun from the Millenium Falcon Cd-ROM game that came out in POTF2 era toys.  They looked pretty good too.  PM me and I'll get you the links.

Here is another ARC I'm working on...my big question is, does the writing look dumb smack on the middle of his forehead?



Opinions please...

Thanks

Looking good so far Dre.  What are you going to do for the gun?

Funny you should ask.  I've been trying(keyword trying)to find the gun that Hasbro used in the picture of the Clone Wars Gunship they have posted.  It's actually a GI Joe mini gun from a Roadblock figure, Versions 9, 10 and 11.  I've searched high and low for this piece, but to no avail.  I have yet to give up hope though, as I'm still scouring the web for it.  If any one has an idea as to where I might be able to find it I'm all ears!!

Here's a link to show what the gun, and figure if any of you have one, looks like.
Roadblock

Thanks for the comments by the way...

Star Wars Action Figures / Aurebesh ARCs **Last update finally!! this PM**
« on: February 19, 2006, 04:17 PM »
I've put my Mando on hold for now.  I'm making an additional ARC for my lone one now. 





I am attempting to make a mixture ofthese guysfrom the animated series.  This is what i have so far.






I know the paint is bumpy, but I'm going to clean it up some, perhaps strip it down to the base and go from there.

Questions, comments, gripes...let me know

I just hope the joints are tighter than they appear on the proto. I hate being able to see the arm peg in there.

I'm scared...the joints on the Saga Boba are loose and it's because it's a "action feature".  Please don't be an action feature, Please don't be an action feature, Please don't be an action feature, Please don't be an action feature....

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to let everyone know that I haven't been able to get much done on my Mando lately.  My wife and I are going to have a baby, and we had to take care of some...issues we had. I should finish up he head, and start painting(at least a primer coat) by the weekend.  I'm going Red armor, and black jumpsuit, kinda like the Mando Deathwatch Bloodguard.  I hope to get some pictures up soon enough. 

Thanks for hanging in there guys!

Here are a coupla guns I've come up with.  One, obviously is an Arc style pistol.  I like the look of it a lot though, so I may incorprate it into my back story of him once I figure everything out.

Here we are, the work place...I'm surprised there wasn't any bloodshed :P


Next is the big gun I put together...it is pretty big, but I like the look of it...



Last is the oppisite side of the big gun, and the ARC pistol...



As usual, gripes, comments, questions are welcome!!

Thanks

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Mandolorian warrior...***Updated 2/6/2006--Color options***
« on: February 6, 2006, 04:52 PM »
Ok folks...I have made a few decisions on the color scheme of this Mando.  But I was wondering what some people would think...so I'm putting up the final two choices I've come to.  Gold armor and black jumpsuit   or   Red armor and tan jump suit.    Lets see those votes!!

Pic taken down cause it was freakin' huge!!


Thanks

Theres some loss of articulation, but not so much he's stuck in one pose.  I still don't know what way i want to go with him.  warrior, Hokan, or what.  Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks

Hey everyone, back again with some new pics.  I decided not to go with the Boba and Jango arms, and opted to use a SA Clones arms as to keep with the SA I have in the legs.  I had to mangle the Clone as well(gotta do what you gotta do, huh Chewie?), but I got the arms out.  The pegs were too small for the arm holes, so I had to sure them up with some sculpey.  I cured it in boiling water, and I think I'm good to go for a while.  I'm still trying to decide if I want to go with a random Mondo warrior, or make him Ghez Hokan from the 1st Rep. Commando book.  Any feelings on this?  Questions, gripes, comments...let them fly!!

Oh yeah...on with the pics....

The first one here is the new arms after coming out of the water...the shoulders look wide, but they aren't in person.


Next is a better pic of the new pouch I put on his backside


Even though this gun sucks it kinda looks cool on him


This is a full shot wiht him and his bucket...I may be removing the antenna...I'm not sure.


Thanks

oh, and PS: Does that boba fett (I assume it's from the new saga collection one) have pegholes in the feet?

Yes, yes he does.  I don't really have much for fodder, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to come up with a jacket for Hokan.  I may attempt it without though.  I just need to find a coupla rifles that are similar to the ones he's described carrying by Guta the Weequay.  The Verpine Shatter gun may go either way in difficulty...any hints are gladly appreciated.

Thanks

I'm still kinda at a loss of what I'm actually going to create.  I don't know if I want to go with Ghez Hokan from the 1st Republic Commando book, or just go with a random Mando warrior.  I'm also thinking about swappng the current arms out and replacing them with a SA Clone Troopers arms, as to get more articulation.  Does anyone know if the Jango torso and the arms are very compatiable?  Thanks for the comments Jesse.

Comments, questions, gripesare always welcome.


Thanks

OK folks...Here is the fruits of my labor...so far.

Once again, I want to thank everyone who gave me advice along the way!!

First up...the work place...just a mis-mash of  parts that started the whole thing...note the mangled Boba torso   ;D



Next is my Mandolorian Monkey...his arms hung down to his knees...that wasn't acceptable.




This picture kinda sucks...but I gave him a lower left Saga Boba arrm and upper Jango
the right is all Kamino Jango, minus the thing that had the grappling hook thingy on it.



And if you didn't notice on the first coupla pictures...I added a couple of new pouches so it woulnd't look exactly like Bobas belt area.




So...what does everyone think.  I've been a member here for not too long, but have never posted pictures.  Comments, question, gripes...let me have them!!!

Oh, and Gregorbian, the Kamino Jango Torso fit the Sage Boba legs pretty nicely.

Thanks for all the help again guys...I'll keep this one updated as it progresses.

Dre
