Very nice! Simple but oh so effective.  :) Now I know what to do with my extra Agen Kolar head.  :) If only I could find the damn head I was going to put on his body >:( :( ::) The paint job really disguises the body and makes it look like a whole new figure.

I want to see some of your collection pics too, Kevin showed me one and It looked pretty cool! :)

Thanks SLC... Here's another photonovel preview, finally starting to slowly get back into the swing of things -

^^^ what they said  ;)
That Durge looks excellent!  I forgot all about Durge until I saw that pic, now I have to fish mine out of the toy bin  :P
Damn, that Durge is nice.  ;D

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.

For about two seconds I thought that was a predator! haha.
So, I'm guessing we can expect to see Durge tearing the clone army a new one?
my mind can only think but one thing..

Thanks guys.  It's the Durge from the Speederbike version, repainted quite a bit to give him more of a war-time look (at least in my opinion).

Sure, he'll show up in the photonovel series.  I don't want to focus on him too much, but I'll try to do him justice.

Here's one more I did tonight while watching the finale of '24' -



He's supposed to be a Freighter pilot.

The Durge looks awesome. Great work on retouching Hasbro's non-paintjob on him. Can't wait to see him in your photonovel!

The freighter pilot is cool, but not my favorite of yours. He's a little dull. But then, not everyone can be a swashbuckling hero. The galaxy needs ditch-diggers too.  ;)

The paint job is as always, excellent. A good, non-obtrusive background custom. He'll serve his purpose well.

Freighter dude's a neat background schlub.  Like the Ice-cream maker guy, he fills the void that is "uninteresting people in Star Wars".  Not enough uninteresting characters in toy form really.

Durge looked good...  The Deluxe Durge still ranks as one of my all-time favorite figures, period.  He was the first Super Articulated action figure by Hasbro...  That was $10 well spent.  Sweet addition of, what I assume is, a mace from the AoD line...  He sorta had a thing for melee weapons, and he looks like he can dish out some whoop-ass to Clones. :)

Nice work CHEWIE, thanks for sharing!

Thanks guys.  Yeah, the freighter pilot is a totally boring custom... I like those kind more than colorful ones sometimes.  Especially when it's a fan-fic character and I don't need to worry about trying to make it film accurate.

As for Durge, yeah the melee weapon is from the AoD line.  That Durge figure is so awesome, I wish they would have made this one the carded version.  Such a great figure... I really like it more with some wear and tear paint weathering on him.  He'll be a b!tch of a fight in the photonovels for our favorite hero, Rykrof Enloe.

The next photonovel I hope to have up in about a week or so... it's about to take a dark turn in the Clone Wars.   :)

This is why I hate doing commissions... I hate giving up a figure that I've made.   :(

Here is one I made tonight for a friend, it will be leaving my loving home tomorrow -

Pretty cool, stuff, Justin, but I have a question.

Didn't you make a guy like that before?

Yeah, I made this version of him earlier -



One of my friends comes over about once a week and always wants me to make him a custom of this one, so finally I caved in and made a second version.
