Great googly moogely! What an update!
Rykrof: I liked him before, but I really like him now. The colors look great and the poseability is just awesome. The head even looks better than most Rykrof heads...did you do some painting on it? It just looks more alive than most of those Endor soldier heads usually look.
Wookiee: Just a repaint, but nothing wrong with that when it looks this good! Your ability to paint realistic looking fur is awesome.
Clone Sniper: GREAT weathering! I'm not sure how I feel about the headwrap...it seems a bit out of place...but still, it looks kind of cool. Is there method to your madness, some kind of military reason for it, or is this just an example of the clones distinguishing themselves a bit from one another?
Urban Commando: I really like this one, even though I see nothing wrong or out of place with the "canon" Commando armor...this guy seems like more of a rapid response type of commando...not sure why I feel that way, but that's the impression I get. The parts blend really well, and the weathering is top notch. How'd you do it?
Nute Gunray: It's gaudy, garish, and absolutely perfect for this vain coward. He needs more costumes, and this one looks amazing. Something I can easily see Nute wearing while wringing his hands over this or the other.
Hod the blind Amill: Easily my favorite of the bunch. Not only is it amazingly creative parts usage, but the paint job, especially on his skin, is easily one of your best ever. I can't stop looking at this guy, it really interests me to see what role he'll play in the photonovels. If he ever ends up in one of your customs sales, I call first dibs!
Great update, Chewie! Your creativity reminds me of why I got into this hobby in the first place!
