Here are some new ones. Let me know what you think.
Here are a few of my Kal Skirata, the wiley old Mandalorian Warrior that Jango Fett recruited to help train ARC Troopers and Republic Commandos. He's carrying his Verpine rifle and even has his three edged knife on his belt. The recipe was Zuckuss legs, 300th Boba Fett torso and upper arms, Endor Trooper lower arms, G.I.Joe Jinx skirt (Kama), head from the line of WWII figures Walmart carries, and a hollowed out POTF Boba Fett head for the bucket.
Next was my 2nd Omega Squad Republic Commando. Once again, he's wearing the flat black Katarn armor mentioned in the novel 'Triple Zero'. The body was stock. The backpack and weapon were customized.

Next was a pair of guards. I decided to call them Hapan Honor Guards. Recipe was a POTF Bib Fortuna body, various Darth Vader arms, Skiff Guard Lando helmet (without the mask) and a couple extra heads I had.
Next was Emtrey, the M-3PO military protocol droid that was assigned to Rogue Squadron. I didn't really care for the way the head was drawn in the 'Essential Guide to Droids'. This was my own take. Recipe was a ROTS C-3PO, some modified chuncks of the DS Gunner's helmet, and the Jedi underwater breathing accessory from TPM.
Finally, a made an Imperial R3. My paint didn't turn out as crisp as I would have liked. My white took several coats to cover, especially where I made mistakes with the black. My biggest problem, however, was how sloppy Hasbro applied the green on the head of the original figure. Their overspray shows behind my black. Overall though, I thought the black and white made a nice contrast for an Imperial Astromech.
Enjoy!
