Just in case anyone is curious, the recipe is:

Head - Sith Probe droid from either the Sith accessory set or a aDarth Maul, I have no idea which
Chest and Left Arm - POTF2 4-LOM, with a ROTS #41 clone anntenae
Crotch and Upper legs -  The original POTF2 C-3PO, it's all I had :P
Right arm - Reposition EV-9D9 arm, SOTE Dash Rendar shoulder, Tip of a Jango gun for the torch
Lower right leg - Madine's Baton and EV-9D9 leg cut below the knee
Lower left leg - ROTS #41 Clone anntenae and EV-9D9 leg cut below the knee

Thanks again for all the kind words guys. :)

Monthly Customizing Challenge - Month 5 - Bounty Hunters and Terrorists!

Great job everyone on Month #4.  If anyone has any last minute entries, get them in!   ;)

Ok, Month #5 has officially started everyone!  Get the creative juices flowing!

BOUNTY HUNTERS/TERRORISTS is this month's them... they are to be fan fic ideas - not established characters.  Here is an example of a fan fic Bounty Hunter -



We've had lots of people join in for the first 4 months, and the more the merrier!

One thing to keep in mind is to try and wait until the end of September before showing your creation.   :)

 :P

Ooooh... I'm going to try to stay away from Mando armor and try think up something fun and different. 

I've got a few ideas, but no spoilers just yet   ;)

I'm thinking about doing a Trandoshan terrorist, myself. I have a basci idea of the parts I'm going to use, but I'm not sure if it'll look good. I'll try and post a WIP later today.

Well I'm probably not going to make any more Mandalorians either for a while.  I'm wanting to make some sort of humans with their faces being shown for this challenge.

 :P

I've just finished an Ubese terrorist and I really like how it's turned out. I'm wondering though: should I post it now or at the end of the month like we always do? I'll prbably fold with anticipation and post pics later today :P

It'd be better if you can hold off, at least until the last week of the month, since today is the first day we are "supposed" to work on these. :P Some people may feel rushed too if they see a whole bunch of customs at the begining of the month.

Doesnt look like I'm going hom,e any time soon. :( So I think Im going to try a terrorist from what ever I can scrounge up around here. The pickins is pretty slim though I gottta tell ya. BUt on the good side I've got all the "Galaxy Wars" dollar store figures that I could ever want. Looks like Im going to have to resort to constructing some "Creepy Cheapies". ;D Ill see what I can do.

Perennial, I hope you can wait to show it.   ;)

Darth Ennis, I'm just glad you're ok... I can't imagine the stress you're going through.  Hang in there buddy... if you want, PM me - I will be happy to send you some free customizing fodder.

Chaos....your droid is FANTASTIC!

Using the Sith probe was a masterstroke!  What a great, great custom!

I actually got the idea from another custom here, I think it was Kit Fisto's. I loved the idea and I happend to have a spare one so I used it. I was worried this one wouldn't come out too good since I just randomly threw stuff together, but I'm pretty happy with the end result. Thanks alot for the kind words Lance. :)

Ennis, I'm glad you made it out of there. Where are you at now?
