Man, that Silvith Rawe looks awesome.  The paint job is great, especially on the head.  He looks like he's been very successful  ;)  I also really like that Keldor soldier.  The WW2 uniform looks pretty cool, I could see that guy doubling as an Endor Rebel.
Great update In Rem!

Re: In Rem's Customs - 3/7/06 - Saesee Tiin, Clone Armor

Saesee Tiin will be making a cameo in armor in the next episode of K.O.E.

Consider that a soft spoiler. :P







He's sort of a quick n' dirty custom, but I think he came out OK. I washed the head a little to bring out some detail, but the pics are a bit overexposed...

Comments are welcome.

Yep that's a great looking jedi in clone armour for sure and the armour is very well weathered.

Awesome - I love this character. I can't wait to see your treatment of him!

And nice job on him too!

Nice work In Rem.  The only change that I would make would be to give him a softgoods cape (maybe the ROTS Dooku's cape).
What did you use for the belt?  Is it sculpted?  It's a nice touch.

No doubt a SG cape would be better. I was sort of working with that I had handy :)

These pics are somewhat overexposed. I need to see about getting something a little more true-to-life.

Thanks for all the comments, guys!

In Rem - I like Saesee Tinn - the weathering came out very well.  I do agree however that a softgoods cape would look better.  I'm looking foward to seeing his (cameo?) in the upcoming addition of KOE

Well, I have an extra ROTS Dooku cape if you want it.  Send me a PM  ;)

PM sent!

Oh, and that belt is cut from a Jedi skirt... can't remember which one it was.  :-\

Those figures are absolutely amazing, especially the Saesee Tinn.  I was absolutely astounded.  Not only is it great customizing, it's also great photography!

Here's an update on Tiin, complete with a soft goods Dooku cape courtesy of our own Gregorbian.

I also gave him a color scheme and a matching Clone. :P



And here's a KOE Chapter 3 preview for kicks:

Nice 'lights-through-the-fog' effect! Also, I find myself diggin' the light green coloring...
Not sure what I think about the soft goods, yet...

Thanks, PenDragon -

The lights-through-the-fog is so easy I'm almost embarrassed to use it so liberally.  :-[ It does work out OK here, though. Thanks for noticing.

I was very skeptical about the light green color, but then I slapped it on this Clone...



...a while back and he quickly became one of my favorites. When I started figuring out a way to bolster ST's appearance in KOE, I opted to tie ST to that paint scheme.

The soft goods cape was generously contributed by Gregorbian. I wasn't sure about it, but I really, REALLY like the figure more with this cape. The rubber cape was donated to the Clone, and I think it works better on him (the helmet conceals the neckhole, so it looks more cohesive than it did on ST.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback. :)

In Rem, sorry I missed your Saesee custom.  I don't know how that happened.  Guess with being busy lately, I missed it.  It's a great custom, very down and gritty look to him which really gives him the tough tempo I wish we saw in the films.  The silk cape looks great.

On the clone, that's great work too.  Simple design that's not overdone yet looks like he's been through many battles.  Awesome.
