This is an idea I came up with while looking for landscape shots and character pics....
So feel free to use it to request information on a character or to post any pictures you find that you think would be useful to the photonovelists / customizers here.
:)

This is an amazing idea, I'm glad you thought of it, JediKnight.
Perennial posted some great forest pics on RS tonight too...maybe we should invite him here and have him add them to the library?
Any good pics of Geonosis landscapes?
-DD
-
Yes, invite this guy over. The more good customizers here, the better.

I only wish I knew how to super impose pictures..
(all I have is MS Paint..bleh)

Whoops, I posted a thread about this before seeing this thread. sorry (but you will enjoy!)
I recently went on a camping trip for school, and We stopped by MacMillan National Park, the Forest where they filmed part of Return Of The Jedi. You know what this means? I got to freaking FROLIC ON THE FOREST MOON OF ENDOR! And you know what it means for you people with fancy displays? I'm giving the customizing community a gift: pictures of the forest for a backdrop of custom dioramas. ENJOY!

Great idea for a thread... a few of these pics you emailed me, and they're already coming in useful for the Rykrof Enloe series. :)
:P
-
THANK YOU! These will help once I start shooting for my photonovel (which is soon hopefully, damn school!)
Can anyone get pics of Tatooine, specifically Beggars Canyon?
-
Hey, it's Diddly! Congrats on your C3 Vader win, Diddly!
-DD
-
Cool thanks alot guys!!
Mods, I think this could use a sticky. :)
-
*bump*
I think this remains a good idea, and should be given a sticky. Anyone got any others to contribute?
-DD
-
If i run in to any Images I will definetly post them!!
Thank you for the exellent pictures, they are a great tool for both reference and as backgrounds for showing your collection!!!!
-
Guys this is awesome! I dont normally post here, just look in once in a while. Got anymore backgrounds for the death star that can be posted? That is my next dio that I am working on. ;D
-
excellent, I must use those sometime.

Hi, all
I need referance pics for my favorite R5, which is R5-K6.
I have a nice shot of the head (which is all there was made for the films) I need to know what the body looks like. This might be tough (for me it is). I'm sure there is a referance for this someplace in the EU or inside a technical manual. If someone can find it I would be glad. Once I have the pics I'll make the figure and post it here ;D
Here is the pic I have (I also found more angles)... but, I need to know what its body looks like
(http://3.astromech.net/Lists/Galleries/astromechs/r5k6/images/r5k6.jpg)
-
Wow! I don't customize (well, except for one 3PO I painted silver and a never-completed repaint job on a Tatooine Luke ;)) but this is great for reference pics, desktop wallpapers, and the like.
Jediknight760071 -- :o Your images are freaking incredible! Where did you get them?
ThePerennial -- Great "Endor" pics.
TT8L -- That looks like what Darth Maul's astromech would have looked like if he had one. ;D I've read practically every EU guide and technical manual out there, and so far I've never seen a depiction of his body. Up to now I didn't even know he had a name! :) So I think it's safe to just make something up.
-
I got them in 2002 from the DarthPsychotic website I think it was. Lots of images.
-
Cool "Endor" pics. Does anyone know what kind of species the trees are? They look like "Thuya" or pines but, I'm not shure...
-
Time for the reference part of "Reference/Background". :)
So who wants to do a Quinlan Vos figure?

Really sorry about the flash....I got bored ad decided to get productive. Added a little shot of Aayla in a smugglers disguise there too. :D Enjoy and good luck!
-
Oh.....And I'd be happy to take pics of any issue of republc for anyone in need of them.
I just can't take pictures of all of them for eeveryone, but reference shots you need from Republic Comics are just fine to ask me for. :)
-
Does anybody have any good reference pics of the Clone Trooper (from the Animated Series) with the gatling gun? It is from the first episode of the last season (season 3), when the clones jump out of the gunship to rescue Ki-Adi and Shaak Ti.
I picked up a Marvel Legends War Machine for $3 at Target and want to know what I have to do to tweak the gun.
Thanks!

Here are links to the reference galleries I set up while active with theJawa.com...
Jawa Reference Galleries (http://www.thejawa.com/customs/index.php)
Click on the category and you'll see square boxes with a reference image in them. If you click on those images, it will open a gallery for the character.
-
Thanks Mitch, but I didn't see any clone troopers on those reference pages...
-
Oops -- didn't see your specific request when I posted that... I'd been planning to post those links for about a week, but hadn't had the time. I may be able to grab screen captures later -- I haven't tried to do it for season 3... I'll let you know if I have any luck.
-
Biz-ump.

I originally though I was going to make a Quinlan Vos microman but then decided on a Republic Commando microman instead.
-
republic commando microman!?...how are you gonna attempt this...dremling or sculpting...I'm just waiting to find a scorch.
-
I asked for some help with the Jedi Temple and Dressel Rebel helped provide these:

Ryan pointed me back to this thread so I thought I'd put them here and bumpity bump on this one.
-
Thread has been stickied.

This was a great idea. I can definately use some of these pics. Thanks a lot. ;D
I already did a Vos though its in my Monster garage thread if anyone wants to check it out.
-
I'm glad you guys like the thread so much. I hope it's helped out from time to time. :)
-
wow. I was looking at those pics of Quinlan Vos thinking about what to use to make one and one of the pics caught my eye. look at the one with MAce and look at what he is wearing. Now look at the Clone Wars Saesee Tiin figure, they are wearing the same thing. The belt, torso, and arms are almost exactly alike. when you take off Saesee's wrist gauntlets he even has the arm wrappings. this just made me think that Hasbro might have planed a Vos figure.

For those wanting additional Galactic Marine reference material...
Sith Snapshot (http://starwars.com/episode-iii/explore/sithsnap/2006/06/sithsnap20060615.html)

I saw this on StarWars.com
It's the best refference I't seen for this character.

I need some Pics of the Home One bridge or any Mon cal cruiser bridge. Can any of you guys help me out. :)
-
As I look at this, his legs are basically exactly like the legs on the hasbro BARC trooper. Awsome, I just found the legs to use on my galactic marine!
-
Wow, what was the reason they put that 3D model up at the official site? A design for an action figure??
On the other hand, now I have to redesign my future custom Marines. Finally we get to see the chest armor, which indeed resembles more of the Snowtroopers' armor than that of the clones'. I bow my head to Sentinel at the Wampa's Cave in a very humble way. :)

hi everyone, Im looking for some reference images for this one, I already have my materials and tools, but I need something detailed, I tried taking pics to the BFII level but the pics came very blurry with a strange line on them and in themovie the temple only appears seconds and I dont have DVD image capturing software and I want to do something about 40cm x 40cm. I even tried doing a google search but they were only pics of the outside and some of the library. thanks for reading
-
can anybody help with a reference pic? I just shaved off the goggles, still intact and in one piece :), from Garidan. I'm wanting to know what his species, Kubaz, or him in particualar look like underneath. I checked on starwars.com & wookpedia but there's nothing there that really helps. If anything I'll have to come up with my own design, maybe eyes like Greedo, K. Fisto, or Nemodian. Or maybe something totally new. Suggestions? Help?
-
did you try google images? this was the 2nd image in a 2-page return of images. google is your friend. ;D
(http://www.loresdelsith.net/universo/aliens/bin/kubaz03.jpg)

thanks Pen much appreciated. :), but I can't see the pic. I tried a google search, images, and most of the pics that they have is porn :D
-
:o There's pr0n on the internet????

Ok, how's now?
(http://threads.rebelscum.com/photogallery/data//500/kubaz03.jpg)
Though I'm still not sure how searching for "kubaz" brings up pr0n.... must be some o'that funky alien-on-alien "drunken cantina party" pr0n... ;)
-
actually I looked up Garidan, wierd stuff. Hadn't gotten a chance to look up kubaz, my attention was taken away by the unexpected results in the Garidan search. Thanks again Pen

Maybe if you spelled it correcetly you'd get better results. ;)

I would like some decent pictures of NJO Characters and Rogue and Wraith Squadron Character Pictures, any help would be appreciated.

I recently got my shipment in from GTG customs, with several Imp Commando helmets in it. Can someone point me in the right direction on how to find reference pics for them? I had a link, but it apparantly no longer works. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
-
Google Imperial Commando and that can take you to the game site. There are some pics there. If you are looking for more there might be something in the visual dictionary books.
-
Here (http://www.imperialcommandos.com/main.htm)
Look in the fourms too.

Can Anyone Point Me In The Right Direction To Find Reference Pictures Of The Cantina Band And Stage Area From A New Hope(Ep4)
Thanks,

The forum search keeps timing out on me, and google image search only turns up Keller's wiki entry.
Anyone have some pics of Keller from the comic series? I just made a cast of the Parjai trooper helmet from the Mace battlepack, and I wanna make a Keller.
-
hey ruprecht,
another post was just finished by my conserning clone commanders with no pics, but I found this for you:
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Keller_%28clone_commander%29 (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Keller_%28clone_commander%29)
http://community.webshots.com/album/550017828fLGppr (http://community.webshots.com/album/550017828fLGppr)
more I can't find, goodluck building the man....
-
Thanks for the quick response.
I'm looking more for pics from the comics, rather than another customizer's interpretation of Keller. My local comic book shop doesn't have any Republic series comics in stock, unfortunately.
-

I have had little luck finding many images from that comic that show him. Finding the comic itself has been a difficult task as well...still looking for it.
-
Thanks Strax! :D
It's hard to find those semi-old comics, isn't it?
-
Some scans from my copies of Republic 79 and 80. I think this is all of the pics there are of him.

Some jawdropping super-hi-res RotS matte paintings from one of the folks who worked on the film. (http://www.dusso.com/pages/EP3/EP3main.html) (http://cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/a010.gif)
The shot of the Coruscant vista from Padme's balcony makes one of the most breathtaking wallpapers I've seen.
There's also some great stuff (non-SW) under the Production Art and Personal Gallery sections.

hey im building up a few galactic marines officers for the release of wave 1 in january anyone with some pictures would be excelent!
-
Officers? Like using insignias as the Snowtrooper next to General Veers has?
-
Pictures of what?
-
Wait, what?
You want to customize Galactic Marines in anticipation of the Galactic Marine coming out in Wave 1, and you want us to provide pictures of the Galactic Marine?
-
I'm a bit confused by your request as well. There is a good Galactic Marine shot back on page three in this thread. Or you could just look at all the various pictures of the Wave 1 Marine...
-
yeah i dont really think id thought the question through before posting it...i meant if anyone has any galactic marines charecters ther than bacara that are customed...thanks for the replies though
-
I get it, you'd like to see pictures of customized Marines, right? Not the real thing, but the ones we made?
-
bingo....thats exactly what im looking for....thanks
-
Ok, well, here's my two cents:
First up, Marine no.1, which actually was my first custom ever:
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/853662/sgmCVg.jpg)
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/1329407/6jyBRx.jpg)
Second, logically, Marine no.2, this time he's got a removable helmet:
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/1374587/nGwtmI.jpg)
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/1374584/qy9olj.jpg)
And last, a third version with an alternative chest armour, to make it more movie accurate:
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/1458052/030L26.jpg)
(http://album.zoom.nl/user/10119/images/388/1459143/DhACpo.jpg)
Hope they're a bit of help to you :)
-Incom
-
yeah theyre great incomi especiallly like no.2 hes excelent
-
i have another question now...i havnt heard that much about the galactic marine...but im guessing that theyre using the parts from the snow trooper with the removable helmet....so i was wondering if some one could tell me if he has a removable bucket?
-
Here (http://www.sirstevesguide.com/index.php?categoryid=13&p2_articleid=365) at SirSteve's Guide you can click on the marine to get a really good pic of him.
And our very own JD has a helmetless pic of him over here (http://www.jedidefender.com/newspro/fullnews.cgi?newsid1163213532,68703,).
I´m very pleased with how this one looks, except for his rifle, that is. I think it´s gonna be a huge hit and I´m afraid I´m gonna have to patient before I order him off eBay (my main supplier of figs)
-
Definately better than hasbro's version. Very nice. I've been thinking, it would be cool if the galatic marine had a cloth mask on the helmet. It would add another dimension to this figure.
-
Hey everyone!
I am looking for some good reference pics of both the CZ-3 droids (seen in sandcrawler and mos eisely, usually white colored with vague protocal droid shape) and the RA-7 droids (also known as Death Star Droid)
I need pics that show the leg details and back veiws of said droids.
I am feeling inspired to give a sculpt of those a try in the near future.
-
You might try The essential guide to Droids and technology.They should have a new one coming out.I know The
Star Wars Visual guide has front pics,but not back.Also the Star Wars Chronicles has pictures,but its a very expensive book.I got mine on sale at 75.00.That was 50% off
-
Ouch! Well out of my budget right now...
However if I can find a copy to look at long enough at a book store and sketch the details I need down on some paper it might help.
Thanks for the info!
-
Hey guys. Just droopping you a line to show that I am in fact, not dead.
The reason I haven't been posting a lot lately, is the Star Wars customising bug has not been with me for a couple of moinths now. ( Ok, a little under a year, but who is really counting)
I basically burnt myself out. :-[
BUt now I have returned, and I am taking a back to basics approiach to my customising, just to get my groove back.Starting with clones ( Yes Phruby Colnes ;D) and Battle droids.
Her's where you can help, can anyone point me in the right direction for some Battle Droids reference pics. I need to see their markings for different functions.
Like Pilots, security and so forth. Can anyone help?
-
Ennis Hoorah, Check out the Wookiepedia for your reference needs, they show captain securtiy pilot etc.
-
Thanks Smarty. I feel like a complete idiot. I didn't even think to look there. :-[
-
Yeah, Wookieepedia is, generally, superior to SW.com even...
Though BD colors are REALLY simplistic... Yellow, blue, red... No other colors are known though EU cites whole deco variants for environment (red on Geonosis for instance, green, and then the Hasbro decoes sort of filter into the EU)... Of course, Hasbro's got the "basic" BD (cream) decoed in the 3 duty-specific colors too at one point or another to check out for reference as well.
-
You can also do a Google/Yahoo/whatever search under the IMAGES tab and it should pull up plenty of stuff too.
-
Good to see you getting the customizing bug back again... hope you pick back up on your PN series again too.
:P
