Thanks for comments CC and Daigo. 

You might want to change your thread title to reflect the update though.

Oops, you are right.  Thanks!  Updated.

This is a great dio, the metal accents really set if off.

P.S. PM sent.

Brialliant work on the dio brent.  I love the metal accents, they really make it look that much better.  Hopefully mine stacks up.

That does make it look so much better and lived in. This building is very impressive. I hope the other builds will be able to live up to your standard. This is going to be a great looking diorama with buildings like this.

Update for some more Tatooine Aliens for the Photonovel.  Some will be in the Palace and some will be used elsewhere on Tatooine.

Duronden - Kubaz Smuggler





Rynault Vizro --  Sakiyan Spacer



and finally just a little update on Teemto Pagalies.  Not much of a custom but I did give him a new belt, some waist packs, an ear wrap, some paint wash and of course a fancy new vest. 

Teemto will be visiting Gardulla's Court for a celebration after the Boonta Eve Pod Race.





If you look closely there is a small tease on additions made to a portion of Gardulla's Palace.

Other updates of note.  I put all of my finishing touches on the Palace.  Findswoman is creating some awesome accessories for me to use in the Palace and once she finishes those up it will be officially finished.

I've got several more customs I need to make to round out the Palace and the Photonovel but I'm getting real close.

Enjoy!  As always, I welcome comments, criticisms, and suggestions.

Sorry for the double update but its been a busy day for me  :D  I finished up two more customs for the PN. 

First up, a return of an early favorite - Hamma Gringol


Second, every Hutt needs a quality Gammorean Guard.  I've picked up several POTF versions and wanted to give him a fresh update.  Here he is:



Just for fun, I've posed him with his POTF and OTC brothers:


As always, comments and critiques are welcome!

Duronden looks amazing! Very cool smuggler indeed. And the paint apps on your figures are top notch. They all look perfectly dirty and smudgy. I think it's time for a group shot of all the palace residents so far!

Based on suggestions from users at Yakface, I've added some drool to the Gammorean Guard.  Here is the new and improved finished product.  I really like the way it turned out.




A couple more aliens finished up...

I added a second Masseuse for our favorite Dug.  The one on the right is the new one.  I cleaned up the coverall on the previous one.  Once I can find some more of the plastic rubberband thingies and I'll clean up the other one too.  Of note on the new one is that it is a cast head and torso.

My entry for the Yakfinities Challenge - Order 66 Survivors.  My favorite SW character and my first custom of this guy:



Here he is in his sullen, depressed state.  I love how well detailed the Hasbro sculpt really is.



I actually put more into this custom than meets the eye.  Obviously the hair is unique but I also swapped out hands from the VOTC version and repainted the feet.  The robe and necklace are also from the VOTC version.  I added a good bit of wash and drybrushing to the undertunics but its not too visible.

My latest chapter of Duel of the Sith was just posted in the Photonovel thread.



It features many of my more recent customs and of course the Gardulla's Palace Diorama!

Created for the Yakfinities challenge, I present a pair of wookies:





Wookie Shaman:


You can probably guess but he was made from an older Chewbacca (not even sure which one) with a dremeling around the bandolier and additional sculpting of the fur.  The braids were cut off the ROTS wookie warrior.  The other hair was sculpted with fixit.  The staff is sculpted from fixit sculpt and the feather is from my little girls craft drawer :)

Wookie Warrior:




He is the ROTS Wookie Warrior heavily sculpted with Fixit.  Not quite up to par with Sith_Fire's work but its a start :)

The landscape is a WIP I've been putting together to support the UGP.  Its my take on the Dantooine style landscape.
