Star Wars Action Figures / Re: CHEWIE's CUSTOMS - updated Tuesday 02.07.06
« on: February 8, 2006, 03:35 PM »
i like the clean Kashyyyk troopers, that's a really nice shade of green Chewie. the Marines are very cool, i think of them as more of a "transitional" snow trooper, not quite 100% hoth, but not ROTS era either....like marines in the early days of the Empire. nice work as usual!

i really like this idea Ennis, very cool and lots of fun...i can't wait to see what kind of "action" Kenobi will get as he travels around  ;)

agreed, PM Bantha5 aka Ryan. i used his kit to make a Neyo and his work is top notch, you can check out my thread to see it completed. he is going to also have a Faie helmet available too very soon.

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: darth_ripley's customs - UPDATE Bust-Ups 2/8/06!
« on: February 8, 2006, 03:24 PM »
i've had so much going on here at the house, i haven't had hardly anytime to do anything, much less a custom of any kind. i just finished up transforming some stormie bust-ups into sandtrooper bust-ups to match the larger GG mini-bust i have. i just used Hasbro parts and my husband helped engineer the backpacks to fit onto their backs and to fit the o-ring into the "look sir, droids" sandie. i also did a Han Stormie & Luke Stormie to go with the larger GG mini-busts too. i've still got some 12" stuff in the works, and lots of clones to complete too. hopefully i can get some time to get these guys done...till then enjoy!  :P

everyone's entries look great! i really like your Roron BrentS and Johnboy's Padme Snowbunny is breathtaking!

i'm afraid i'm like Glassman on waiting till the last minute....but no more football season may get me doing more projects too.

my plans have changed as usual...having to get a new heat & a/c unit put a big crimp into my customizing budget, so i'm working a project with parts i already have laying around here...look for a 12" Obi-Wan in Clone Armor from me complete with soft goods robe instead of a Roron for now.

nicely done, great color match and clean lines. i'm a sucker for some mild battle damage, but clean is good too  :)

she's a bit of a gymnast there Phruby  :o

a good flesh mixture that i have found is with my Citadel paints. i like to start with Bronzed Flesh, then add some red, white and then some light brown to it if it needs to be darker (more tan). of course the red makes the flesh more fair=more pink, whereas yellow and brown=more tan.

can't wait to see her in her bikini  ;)

p.s. are you gonna make her chain a real metal chain like the "new" saga Chewie Boussh's prisoner? that would be a nice touch.

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Master Phruby's Customs Thread - Update Corran Horn & Whister (1/20/06)
« on: January 21, 2006, 02:41 PM »
i like the Han head for Corran, looks good to me & you really can't tell its a Han head till you look at it closely. the colors look good and i like the Ki-Adi body too. On Whistler, the lines on the dome are a little crooked/off looking, but that's just a nitpick...painting straight lines is a pain without taping off and using an airbrush.

wow! how cool to have not 1 but 2 spacestation playsets! i never got one when i was a kid  :'(

there really are no limits when it comes to what you could do with these 2 bad boys -- the only limits being space, time to work on it & cash to get it all decked out  ;)

darklord has some great ideas there...i will be interested to see what you do with them DD.

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Glassman's Customs - Mon Cal Dancer Re-CARDED Saga 06 pg.7
« on: January 21, 2006, 02:12 PM »
The Mon Cal Dancer really stands out on the Saga packaging. your PS skills are amazing to say the least!

the coins look great too! very realistic finish on them & VERY nice having the Fett coin. i collect the POTF coins loose (of course) and some of those mail-aways are damn tough to come by like the Sail Skiff etc. but you already know that i'm sure. i don't have too many mail-aways myself, and nothing really rare to speak of...but don't hesitate to PM me if you need one to make a cast from, maybe i could help out  :)
