Ah, I see. Yeah, I normally don't have much trouble with Citadel paints in terms of glossiness. There's two coats of paint, so I don't know why it came out a bit glossy. I don't have dullcote or anything like that. It's impossible to come by here, and I can't order it from the States or UK  . Otherwise, I'd have applied some of that, of course 

Here's Dark Jedi Varan E'ron. An average Jedi at best, he never emerged from the shadows of his more esteemed peers. Trying to prove himself while negotiating in a conflict between two hot headed land owners, he got horribly scarred when the not so happy land owner decided to teach him a lesson. Afraid to be mocked by his fellow Jedi, he never returned home. In fact, he exacted his revenge on the man who left him scarred for life, by killing his children, his wife and himself. He joined forces with the other land owner and helped him become a powerful warlord. Varan had discovered his dark side powers were quite prominent and he became quite skilled in using them.

LMK what you think 

S_H, those droids look beautiful! There's a great balance between a new and shiny look and the applied weathering effects. I'll comment in more detail later this evening.

By the way, very nice to see all your creations together. Nice to see that sweet lil' Kneesaa and those pesky  Jawas again 

Fresh colour scheme on that Mando, Korbra. He could use some weathering though, or a nice dark wash, perhaps? And adding a female Mando would make for a killer pair of honeymooners 

Thanks D_E and JesseVader.

D_E: I got some comments about Kass' hands being too manly (they're from Agen Kolar, after all). I think I'll replace them with Adi Galla's. The hair was quite a job to do, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. I based the technique on how the hair on my daughter's Dora the Explorer backpack/doll was applied. Next time I'll try and make a tutorial, for those interested 

Jesse: yeah, it seems Screamin' Mace has a lot of potential for the customizing scene  .

I finally finished work on Kass Tod. It was quite easy after having found a suitable skin colour. I'm not 100% happy with one of her horns, but since I jammed pieces of paperclip in her pretty face and spent a lot of time adding the hair, I'll leave 'em like they are.



Recipe:
- head: POTF2 Slave Leia (heavily modded/repainted)
- arms: ROTS Saesee Tin (upper arms shortened a bit)
- hands: ROTS Agen Kolar
- torso: EP1 Adi Galla
- legs: AotC Obi-Wan Pilot
custom made leather Jedi attire
custom made hair

And not without some sense of pride, I present to you a custom inspired by my own lil' girl Linet Starbright (Linet's her real name, Starbright is fictional). She's 1+ right now, but I think this could be her as a young Jedi in a couple of years  Credits for this concept go to JediDre, who made a clone commander named after his son Kellen.

As always, I appreciate your thoughts and comments 

Here are two new customs. First, a quickly made Gnarls Barkley, as seen during the MTV Movie Awards. Search YouTube for "gnarls barkley, mtv" and you'll see what I mean. Nothning serious, just a little laugh:



Recipe:
Saga Vader: body
Mace Windu (Geo Rescue): head

Then I have the fat guy I mentioned in my previous post. He is Sibosa Scapr, a former bartender at the Mos Eisley cantina. He started out as a Twi'lek crime lord (for a Yakface competition), but saw the error of his ways and became a bartender  :



Recipe:
Orn Free Ta: head, hands and feet (never thought I'd willingly take a peek under his robes for them  )
POTF2 Malakili: body, arms, legs
Sculpted belt, buckle and towel.

As always, let me know you likes and dislikes! 

Awesome Snowtrooper, Fritz. Looks like the outfit could very well be a transition before the ESB Snowtrooper's outfit 

And I agree with you on the Empire enlisting "normal" men during the Galactic Civil War. Clones don't come cheap and they age rapidly
