Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Gregorbian's Customs - UPDATE 01/04/06

Nice work G!  Of all stormtroopers I've ever seen, that is my favorite.  I like how it looks a tad more muscular than the stock ones, which, to me have ostrich legs.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Thanks guys.  It's always rewarding to hear good feedback, especially given that It took FOREVER to make.  I would rather have gotten Bantha5's kit for my son.  It would've saved me tons of time.  This is the kind of custom that takes so much time and effort, that when finished, you cringe at the very thought of action figures.

Thanks Fritz.  I mixed the paint myself.  It took 3 tries to get it right, but the main color was Apple Barrel Pumpkin something or other.  It's been a while since I mixed it.

Here's my first attempt at Commander Cody.  I did this for my son for Christmas, I've just been too lazy to edit and upload the pics.






Recipe
SA Clone body
Tank Gunner head and neckpost

Accessories
Visor:  Sheet styrene w/sculpy
Helmet Antennae:  Right side - random gi joe part;  Left side - Sheet styrene
Shoulder Antenna:  Styrene, sculpy, wire
Camera:  gijoe gun part, cut and sanded
Jetpack:  3 styrene sheets, sanded, etc. to shape.  Looks kinda like a big tooth.  I'll be changing that with my next rev.

Her Commander Fox auctions never divulged that info.  Oh well, it's old news now.

Nice work DP!  It's just such an original piece, with so much space, it's amazing.  You worked really hard on that, and it shows.  In 30 years, they'll probably still have it in one piece!

Saw this baby up close and personal last night.  It's big, and it's bad.  Such a clean design, and the angles keep it interesting.  It's HUGE, but in no way does it resemble a giant block.  It'll house speeders, a Falcon or two, an Imperial Shuttle, and a Slave easily and with room to spare.  Also, I don't know if you guys noticed, but in pic 4869, there's a little box in the frontmost corner that smugglers, weapons, etc. can hide in.  There's a panel to cover it that's not pictured........very Falcon-esque, and a nice touch. 

This could be any starport in the SW universe, and depending on how it's "staffed," could be controlled by Imperial, Rebel, or neutral forces.  It makes me wish I was one of DP's kids this Christmas. 

Amazing work, DP.

As Chewie said, the cloth goods look great.  Good job of dirtying up that melon of his, it looks like he strikes from the shadows.

I like that gun.  It looks like a mix of a MP40 smg (elite force?) and the barrel of a blaster.

Ewwww.......hollowing out action figures sucks!  When you're finished, your work area (and you) look like you've been hit with plastic shrapnel.  Brownie points for that alone!

Well-done, and a great execution.  Only thing I'd suggest is including some scraps of the black body suit they wear underneath, hanging off here and there.

I am green with envy of the evolutions clones you have....

I'd probably weather their helmets a tad more, though.  They look kind of stark white compared to their body armor.  Just a thought.

As always, great job on your other customs.  I really dig the clone Rykrof, his helmet and backpack are a good combo.  The pack takes some of the emphasis off the helmet's largesse.

Take everything positive I've ever said about your customs and apply them to your most recent ones, and now I'm caught up! 

Yes, I am a lazy turd.   :P

Indeed it is.

I think starkid's saying in his own special way:  The person that makes Fox, topless Leia, etc.,  "nag5370," has female girl parts and not male boy parts.

How we were supposed to deduce that from her ebay id, i haven't a clue.
