LUKE SKYWALKER SPLINTER OF THE MIND'S EYE
When I saw the front cover of Luke from the Star Wars comic series The Splinter of the Mind's eye I knew I had to make a figure of him with is X-wing suit wrapped around him and thought it would be a good challenge. Once the figure was completed I used Vallejo, Reaper miniature and Games Workshop paints on him.
The base is from the new Star Wars Saga line which comes with the figures I added marine Styrofoam to it and carved out a small incline I then added plaster of paris and woodglue to the base. Once dry I coated the base with woodglue and added sand and static grass to it.
Once the sand and static grass dried I gave it a wash using Vallejo paints and let dry and then drybrushed it using Vallejo paints again, the small shrubs are from woodland scenics and the palm plants are plastic fish tank plants painted in the same method as mentioned above.
RECIPE
Head, Body, boots and Arms- OTC Dagobah Luke with added hair at the back for more length using GW greenstuff. The body was covered in greenstuff and sleeves were added to the arms and the arms reqiured a little greenstuff as I had to alter them slightly.
Legs- OTC X-Wing Pilot Wedge Figure with putty used on the knee and crotch area.
The Wrap around X-wing sleeves- they are made from greenstuff and once secured to the body I used a toothpick to add creases.
Holster and belt- This was made using left over pleatherwhich was glued together using superglue.
Blaster and Saber- These were pulled out of the bits box from another Luke figure.
