That is very impressive dude.  I'd love to see a diorama with 2 or 3 of those in a swamp gunning down a droid army.  Very very good.

Excellent job!  It looks like you did some sculpting on the helmet, good job on that  ;D

Once again another outstanding piece of work.  Your attention to detail is staggering, and your painting/weathering are second to none.  That guy looks like he walked right out of the pages of the concept book!

Work has kept me from doing anything custom-related for about 3 months or so now, but I managed to finish this guy that I had been working on 'off and on' as I had the time.

I always thought Jaster Mereel was pretty cool after seeing him in the Jango Fett Open Seasons comics so when I made my Star Wars Galaxies character 'Alencon Mereel', I made him have the same square type marking that Jaster had. I always wanted to make another Mandalorian that was a little more detailed and so this is the end result.

His left shoulder armor has 'MEREEL' painted in Aurebesh. His right shoulder armor has Jaster's chest symbol painted on as a 'nod' to both Jaster and Alencon, haha. I was going to permanantly attach the kama but left it in case I ever wanted to remove it for anything~ I also modified the helmet a bit on the top to give him a more menacing/tough look and replaced the rangefinder with a small light. And because I'm a Republic Commando-a-holic I added a little detail to the normally all-black visor.

Hope you guys like him.









Parts used:

Base figure- VOTC Fett
Boots-POTJ Qui-Gon
Backpack-US Paratrooper from Elite Force
Kama- EVO Clone Commander
Pauldron- ROTS Bacara

Great job! ;D
Only thing that bugs me: The spikes on the bottom of the boots. Dont know why.. Its a cool concept but I dont know how well it fits.  :-\
The republic commando touch to the visor  is nice too!  ;)

I liked the spikes because I figured this is the kinda guy that would be an "All-Terrain" type of commando, and because I really really really wanted to use those boots, lol.

WOW. The paint job on this guy is incredible. I love what you did with the helmet, too. And I always liked those boots  ;)

The only thing I'm not crazy about is the kama... I don't know why but it kind of looks out of place, IMO.

Great job nonetheless, keep up the amazing work.

This is an amazing piece of work, aeseven. You never fail to impress.

The visor looks great, I love the nod to the Republic Commando armor, and the removal of the viewfinder was a nice touch; I like the "Predator" style sight you added. The kama looks good and the boots were a great addition...this guy looks ready to throw someone a serious beating.

The paint job is what really impresses here though...I love the muted colors, and he looks gritty and realistic. The aurebesh is a great detail and not something you see often in customs. Very well done!

Now, can I have it?  ;D

Wow, what an awsome figure! I'd love to know how you modded the helmet so nicely.
