I love it, Just some more evil Sith badness for the Jedi to fight with. Please tell me he's going to be in a story one day.

Woah! I wish I had time to do this month, I was out of town for 2 week then I have been in the hospital for the past few days. >:(

It really doesn't matter though, cause nothing I made would have come close to that, he is infuckincredible. :) Those AoD figures make for some fantastic fodder, he looks so Satanic. His name is perfect too it sounds so evil. He makes Darth Sion look like a Care Bear.

Have you ever heard of Mastoiditis? I was in some of the worst pain I had ever been in this weekend. It sucked, but I'm better now. How's the insomnia going?

Is that some kind ear infection?  Ouch... I think a friend had that back in college and it was pure misery for him.

My insomnia is still giving me problems... I must set up an appointment to see a specialist soon.

I've thought about it, but doing the photonovels makes me even more awake (I get too excited and pumped up about them), so I try not to work on them at night.   ;)

Well, off to bed.  Rest my weary head.

I know what you mean.  Sometimes, when I'm laying in bed trying to go to sleep, I get an idea for a custom and I can't relax until I think it through entirely (parts needed, what I have, what I have access to, etc etc). 
Hope you sleep well man!
The scariest thing that I've ever seen,
Is the terrible AT-AT walking machine.
It's as big as a house on walking legs,
and whatever it steps on it crushes like eggs.

Sleeping is still a major issue for this crazy Wookiee... anyways, I made a few more customs -

Nemoidian Hag - This one is the result of not being able to sleep last night.  I didn't put too much effort into her because I was physically exhausted and she's just a background diorama filler anyways.  Here she is -

 

Bail Organa - I guess I'm one of the few that like the new Captain Antilles figure.  I don't like the height of the Bail that they made, so I did a simple head swap with my extra Antilles.



AT-AT Drivers - I figure in the Clone Wars era and right after the Clone Wars, they might have looked something like this -



Trofarr the Terrible - Remember the Badoo Corba from the photonovels in the Rykrof Enloe series?  This guy will be in the series soon as a leading member of that organization -

God, it's killing me I haven't had any time to post any of my new stuff...I should be back on track after this week, though. And I can always spare some time to comment on Chewie's cool stuff, so here goes:

Neimoidan hag: I think this skank propositioned me outside the Colton Wal-Mart a week and a half ago. Anyway, simple but effective...but definitely a two-coyote date double bagger. Is there an EU source for female Neimoidan's having hair, or was that a creative choice of your own, Chewie?

Bail: A simple head swap, but I kind of like it. I was actually thinking of doing this the other way, with an Antilles head on Bail's more poseable body. Are you going to fix Hasbro's scarring error on Antilles?

AT-TE Drivers: Now we're talking! These look awesome, and totally fit within what I think the drivers of said vehicles would look like. Nice transition between trilogies.

Trofarr the Terrible: Mesa lika dis! (Sorry...couldn't resist!) This is my favorite. Your creations are best when you go wild, in my opinion, and this is an example of that. The armor is cool, it matches up pretty well, and the paintjob is excellent as always. I'd add a blaster holster though, to make him a little more "battle-ready." Always good to see a Badoo Corba...this guy looks like he'd betray Fuuda in a heartbeat to take control.

Another batch of coolness, Chewie! Congrats!

-DD

Thanks DD.  I'll reply to your comments -

Nemoidian Hag - Just a fan-fic idea, they might have hair or might not; just my own random idea.  I think I need to paint this figure.

Bail/Antilles - What scarring problem?  I know he does have some scratches in the movie on his face, but maybe these don't resemble the scratches very well?

AT-AT Drivers - Thanks, I had a couple extra Bacara heads and thought they would look cool on the Clone pilot body.

Trofarr - Kind of an easy custom, I used one of the AoD knight figures for the body and added on the Ask Aak head and Plo Koon hands.  Did a little repainting and he turned out to be a kinda cool looking figure.  I might add a holster like you suggested.  And yes, I'm planning on him having an interesting relationship with Trigg Fuuda.   ;)

I like the neimoidian hag, even though you say you spent the least amount of effort in it, The anonymoys background characters always interest me :P


 I like the Pilot with the baccarra head, too. Smooth transition with the pilot head and attatching the hoses, it looks as well made as Scoobacca's pilot using the Baccarra head.

Neimoidan hag: You know if you painted her black and added some thread for hair, she could be an interested sith witch.

AT-TE Drivers: I can so see the empire using these guys as ATAT drivers. I wonder what they would look like painted black like tie pilots?

Trofarr the Terrible: You know, I've been trying to figure out a use for my casted Ree Yees head for along time. I'm going to have to do something simular. What body is that? It look like some knights-type armor?

Thanks Perennial.  I like the hag too.  Kinda a silly figure.  I've seen Scoobaca's work.  He seems to do a lot of customs of Imperial type parts swaps and put them on ebay.

Phruby -

That's a good idea about the Nemoidian hag figure!  Hmmm... a Sith Nemoidian?  Or a green ugly Sith woman maybe.

I had thought about painting those Clone pilots... I'm awful and painting on those SA joints though, so if I can find some of the black Clone pilots I'll probably make something like you are talking about.

The Gran figure body came from this figure on the left -



Also, slowly... very slowly working on the next photonovel.  Here's a preview.
