I've got to agree with Jesse and add that I personally don't think its worth selling customs on ebay. The amount of money I've received in the past just doesn't justify the work and hassle of ebay to me. Besides, the only thing that seems to sell well there is clones and I'm not going to make a clone just to cash in. I don't need the little bit of money I'd make from the sale of customs to make it worth it.

I would however love to have at least one custom made by each person that posts here. I've collected a number of customs over the years made by online friends that I admire their work. I think I would rather offer up some customs here to people at a cheap price (say $5)  to free up shelf space for future customs.

Dude, your making me want to push my dead ATAT driver up in priority. You made some good improvements on the tie pilot. I like the messed up boots the best.

Greg where are you getting the bubbles? How much are they?

What color of dry brush of flesh should I use Ron? I've still got to paint my version.

5855
Thanks Grego and Ron. I'm glad you like them.

Yes,  I'm afraid to admit it. ;D

Decent price at about $8 a piece. I think I'll wait for hasbro's versions.

Ok. Now we are getting silly! ;)

LOL! :D

Actually, I'm very surprised on how well this figure stays together. All the joints are tight and move very well. These figures are much higher quality and stronger plastic than anything hasbro produces. Sad part is they cost the same as a regular hasbro star wars figure.

I think of these as the same as using a Dragon body for 12" doll. Findswoman could make a fantastic softgoods outfit for these bodies.

BrentS is after Chewie. Then its me.

Very cool set of jedi Brent. I like the Roronn Corob the best.

Justin, your Roronn Corob also came out great! Just fix the feet and you got him. I like the hood he is wearing.

I should have a wip picture of my snow bunny padme up in the next couple of days. I know Greg won't start for another three weeks. Remember February is a short month.

Yah, that's the thing I'm going to have to try and avoid. She's very yellow.  I really don't want to paint the face. I want to get as close as possible to that color. Did you take the entire figure part and paint everything separately? How do you keep the paint from rubbing off on the joints?

Here you can see I've shorten the neck a little. The chain helps hide the joint. Her head is still moveable.



Here I've added the loin cloth as an experiment. I plan on using real softgoods instead of the plastic you see here. I will use the upper metal piece from these plastic pieces.

I think it will look natural as long as I can get close to the skin color of the head. I reduced the neck post and the head still moves. The chain is there to hide the joint between the body and head. Here are some pictures of Catwoman and Batgirl done with this body. I'll probably have to do the boots simular to Batgirl.
