As surprising as it may seem... I need a ROTS Nemoidian Warrior/Guard.  It can be either version.  I have alot of good parts, or can pay a very small amount.  Thanks!

What a great idea.  I think the touch of the snow to the custom is terrific.  Its amazing how subtle changes (or radical in the case of the boots) can be so effective in creating amazing customs!

Thanks everyone for the compliments.    I was really surprised by how much it changed the look of the figure just by adding the boots and collar.  By adding a dirty wash to the figure also made a huge difference - though it doesn't show up in the pics as well.

Ennis - to answer your question, I cut the X-wing boots off.  Since they were so close to the ball joint, it was a bit tricky to get the Derlin boots to fit.  I dremeled out a small groove in the top of the Hoth boots to allow for the slightest bit of the actual ball joint to slide through. 

Unfortunately, my means of attaching them was with superglue and his right knee joint swivels, but doesn't bend.  The left leg works fine, but I move it with care, so not top rip it apart.   

 

Yeah, I think that the mouthpiece worked really nice for that badge.   Perhaps someone who is used to casting could make some at some point in the future (though you'd be limited to an eight mark badge).

Chewie - that would be great to post of Yakface. I know my pics don't really do it justice, but it really worked out well for an Imp badge.

Especially since I've been cannibilizing those droids for all kinds of parts:
The arms and  torso dremeled out for armor,
Droid's head for jetpack,
and upper torso for a female clone trooper that hasn't worked out completely yet.

And I'll prolly find alot more uses from them.

Thanks for the comments.

Chewie - I like that particular version of yours very much.  Looks in character to Enloe, and with the poncho/cape/hood, even brings an OT look to it.  Definately one of my favs.   Thanks for taking the endor soldier and making a story and character we can all appreciate.

Quazar - the imperial rank badging is simply the mouthpiece cut off from the SP-4 jedi library droid from the 1st Saga collection. 


Also, although you have all pretty much identified the parts, here's the recipe:

Saga 1 - Dja Puhr - torso and arms, skirt/holster
Saga 1 - Endor Rykrof head
Saga 2 - Veers hat dremeled out
Saga 2 - AT-AT pilot gloves
ROTS - Tarkin Legs
Saga 1 - Jedi Info droids mouth piece for Imperial Rank badg

Here's my version of an Ubese bounty hunter, Bambouzshh Eld.  He started from a small clan, becoming notorious, on small outer rim planets, for his thoroughness, and efficiency in completing his contracts.  By building up business, he finally made it to the scrubs of Coruscant, where he adopted the more common clothing of the universe, as well as learning the Basic language. 


Let me know what you think!





 

Thanks BrentS, I signed up for hosting with photobucket.  Not sure if this is what you had in mind or not.   The camera I have doesn't enable me to get too much better quality than this, but hopefully maybe this will help out Phru and Jedipurge.

mister_palpatine - thanks so much for the compliment.  That's about as nice a thing as anyone could say.

BrentS - here's the recipe Starting from the top down:

ROTS - Capt. Antilles head comm unit, trimmed the front prong

POTF - Ceremony Leia head, darkened eyes, eyeliner, lips...  also, I thought it added alot, and I'm not sure you can tell by the pics, but I sliced behind her ears, glued in the thinnest piece of plastic behind, and then trimmed off the excess.  This caused her ears to stick out a bit, much like the actress who portrayed the character.   If someone could post a pic of her, it'd be much appreciated.

ROTS - Palpatine robe and collar carved out

ROTS - Aalya Secura upper torso

ROTS - Padme arms

ROTS - Mon Mothma mid-torso skirt dremmeled down

POTF - Skirt sliced up the back and glued smaller

And that's it.  As pleased as I am with the results, I'm dying to try it again and smooth out any little mess-ups.

Thanks again for looking!

Nice job there Ennis - I wouldn't worry about the cloak too much as she went quite a bit without it in the cartoon.  I don't think my version looks quite as good without it as yours does, mainly because it's not really neutrally posed.


Anyways, since everyone's showing off their final product thought I'd link my Snow Bunny Padme again:

It's in a folder by itself:
