I like the use of the dengar body. It gives me an idea for what to do with those dengars that are at AHF TRU near me. What if I made a really fat 501st leagon clone trooper?

Gregorbian - I love the use of the Dengar body.  It's a good match for that head.  What really strikes me is the paint scheme.  It really makes him stand out.  I like the cape too, it adds character to him.

CuDa - Of course you can enter him.  This is a fantastic custom.  I really enjoyed seeing this project of yours come along.  So, if he's an Ex con/bounty hunter/smuggler, what is he now?  And where did he get the Clone armor and the ship?  I'd like to hear more of a backstory for him.  He's very cool!

Thanks for your comments guys  ;D

CuDa - cool backstory, I would also like to know how he got the Clone Armor.   8)

CONT:

 Aruala Took his armor from one of the storage bays near the hanger he arived in 4 years ago. And the same hanger he was about to escape from .
 The storage bay held his own X type armor that was taken from him the day he arrived. A young Aruala was a Clone Commander before being arrested. He was placed on the prison colony Oovo IV for life due to ordering his troopers to shoot down a stolen republic gun ship. With one miss fire and a rocket slamming into what would be known as an Imperial shuttle killing 26 people. Six crew and 20 troopers.
In a matter of days he was to be placed in prison for the rest of his life.Tell one day......

After stealing his armor back from the storage bay he stumbled across a hanger full of Firespray-class attack ships made by KSE (Kurt Systems Enginering). He had heard many of these ships fly over his cell day and night on patrol durring his stay. Watching the ships attack random prisoners working in the yard he became very well aware of what kind of fire power the ships had.
Before leaving the colony with his new ship re named the Slave C , Aruala turned his ship around and destroyed the remaining ships in the hanger.
To refit his new ship with the weapons he needed, Aruala turned what was left of his life to being a first class killer and  smuggler. KSE  ships became very popular with bounty hunters a few years later with new modified Firespray-class ships also known as ... The Slave type ships.

Thanks guys  ;D

    It would be cool trying a photo nov but I would prob suck at it lol. If I could do one though I would want to use photo shop and a mix of home made back grounds. I kinda been thinking about doing one based on this figure after seeing your photo novs Chewie and how cool they looked. Starting out with how he became a Clone commander to his life after the prison colony and going from bad to good ... and maybe back to being good.  :P

Since we are in July. Shouldn't the topic be changed to Monthly Customizing Challenge - Month 3 Sith Lords ?

By using spare parts, I'm designing a sith witch of my own design. She is going to have red string hair and I'm planning on using black eletrical tape for her "outfit". You will see what I mean soon. Anyway here is a work in progress picture.

I know i'm nitpicking, But the firespray-class attack/policing ships like the Slave I or the Slave C is made by Kuat systems, not Kurt systems.

Phruby - That looks like a great start!  Excellent use of parts, and she looks really evil.  What legs are those?

Gregorbian - Very funny my friend, and he looks damn cool.  Not too sure there were actually ever any Force-Sensitive Jawas, but who cares.  It's the idea in itself that makes this one entertaining.  I love it.  And it looks really good too.  I just love the evil red eyes.  The custom Jedi is nice too with the Bail head.
