Custom Fodder Sale Pending
Also for sale is all my custom fodder. Due to the number of vehicles and Loose-Complete figures I'm asking $80 for the lot of everything, and I'd much prefer to sell it all together. Please contact me with any questions.

What I'm trying to find out in this thread is mostly what kind of music is out there that I'm missing. I listen to a lot of music from the movies of the 20th and 21st centuries, but I still don't feel like I have a good grasp on what the best stuff is. So here I'm going to list a few of the movies who's scores I love, but mostly I'm going to wait to see which old fossil here will enlighten me to the really classic films and composers I know little about.

In no particular order:

The Buccaneer - Elmer Bernstein
Star Wars Saga (esp. ANH) - John Williams
Mission Impossible II - Hans Zimmer
Glory - James Horner
The Page Master - James Horner (not 100% sure)
Sons of Katie Elder - Elmer Bernstein
The Magnificent Seven - Elmer Bernstein
The Mummy - Jerry Goldsmith
The Mummy Returns - Alan Silvestri
Treasure Planet - Not sure about his one


Now, that looks like a pretty limited list, but it's just off the top of my head pretty late at night here. I've heard of a lot of composers, such as Herbie Hancock and Henri Mancini, but I don't know enough about them to even know if I'm spelling their names right or if they're even serious composers. I'm pretty into the old Disney Classic Movies collection, which some of you may remember featured films such as Kidnapped with Peter Finch, The Story of Robin Hood with Richard Todd, Candleshoe with Jodie Foster, and other great films like Old Yeller, In Search of the Castaways, Escape to Witch Mountain, and The Apple Dumpling Gang. I lot of those movies had great little film scores, but I don't know the history behind that time period. Was this one guy working with one production company on a bunch of different scores, or was there a shared style that people like John Williams picked up on for ANH but have since moved away from to produce, in my opinion, inferior scores for the last three Star Wars films?

I'd really like to know what's going on. There are so many great old movies with great music, but it seems like no one cares anymore. Westerns had such flare, but nobodies raving about them anymore, so it went out of style and people like me, who weren't privileged enough to have lived through slightly older times, really miss out on that experience.

Any help is appreciated. I know a few of you have a knack for this kind of thing, so I'll be looking forward to some answers. Thanks guys!

Just finished up a great trade with Phoenix! Would definately deal with again...thanks so much!

Here also is my feedback thread.

Rewriting a photonovel makes you realize how much you suck.  Just wanted to get that out there.

After months of inactivity I'm slowly getting back on track with my photonovel...I realize I used to be one of a few (Ryan, Justin, Lance, Vator, and me I think) who was working on a photonovel, but now that the word is out there and popularity is on the rise...no one really expects anything to come of this, since I haven't made it happen for months. But...I'm hoping that I'll establish myself as a serious photonovelist, if there is such a thing, in the next few weeks. I'm completely redoing my second episode, of the Ardan Torik series, which after rereading, seemed to suck...a lot. I'm not very good at this, so I'll just post some of the recent shots I've been working on, including the new opening. I'm not sure yet if I'll be scrapping the old preview shot I posted a while back, but if I do, you'll know about it.

And, in case you haven't read/seen my previous work, here it is.

Older, disowned, parts are here: 1    2    3    4    5    6

This is m new Opening:



A stab at photoshop...Hopefully making future photonovels more "professional" looking:



And a shot I'm not completely pleased with, but the lighting worked...it's just, this picture was meant merely to be a test, as you can see with the horrible cropping, but it worked so perfectly, I feel I need to put it in somewhere:

Hey guys, I'm starting a thread for my customs finally, as it has been quite a while since I posted some of my work, and I feel as though I've lost some status and been bumped down to lurker. I also want to talk about my photo novel work, and what I'm hoping it will become. First of all, I'd just like to say that I went through the most challenging semester of my life and was able to crawl slowly out of an F, Ds, and Cs, to get, in the end, Honors credited As and Bs. I didn't quit work when the semester started, and when I got stuck with a 6 day week, evening shift, I still didn't quit. There was also a motivation problem on my part that really didn't help. This all allowed no time for customizing, as any free time I had was swallowed up by extra studies, hence the customizing hiatus. So without further delay, these are a few of the customs I've been able to work on:


Roronn Corob and Clone Commander Naric - You've already seen these in the group project thread (which I seem to have killed with my accidental posting of a clone ) but in case you haven't, here they are for the record.



Tomic Shious - This Endor rebel was created with spare parts for a scene in the first photo novel of the Ardan Torik Series, but the shot didn't make it in. Why any Rebels would be in existence 20 years before the events of A New Hope is beyond me.



Jola Maysin - To me, Naboo Guards seemed a bit weak in TPM, so I've been thinking about an Elite guard for the Royal family and representatives. I'm still in need of tools to expand the SOTE helmet that came with Luke, but I believe it might piece together nicely here.



Ceremonial Luke - I first saw this design in the Rogue Squadron comics and am trying to reproduce it with a Saga Luke I never traded off...It's going pretty well, but needs a few more coats and some touch ups to make his uniform nice and crisp.



Lenin Elus - Another photo novel story I've been brooding over is a plot involving a young Imperial Officer who experiences first hand the horrors of war and becomes, eventually, a Rebel Pilot in Rogue Squadron. The problem is I'm sensing Dark Horse taking the new Rebellion series in the same direction, which sucks for me.



Ardan Torik Series Customs

From The 2nd Part's Bar Scene - These few characters were created just for a scene involving Ardan Torik at one of Coruscant's under city bars.  The right-most character I'm not especially pleased with, but he fills the scene, which really doesn't focus on the customs, but a key change in tone regarding alien species in the core.



Two More Aliens - Here are two more background characters that fill in roles in the Ardan Torik series. I've since come to regret painting the Bespin Guard's jacket, but you'll see why soon enough.



Helping Alien Escape - These are two characters that aid Ardan throughout the 2nd part of the series. Originally, I wanted the Weequay to play the part of Sora Bulq, but later I realized he was much more compatible as a smuggler than a Dark Jedi.



Ardan Torik in Many Forms

Ardan Torik - Having realized I never let out whom or what Ardan Torik is, I just want to take the time to apologize for making everyone wait so damn long. Ardan Torik is a Zabrak, and acquaintance of Dexter Jester's. There's a lot of mystery behind the character and as I go along I think of new ways to develop him and explain his past in interesting ways. Hopefully everyone will enjoy his stories in the future.



P.S. I'm officially claiming Bespin as the set for the future of my photo novels. I've got a new idea for photo novels where I plan to stress the novel part of that word and hope that it's going to be a hit here on the boards. More updates to come soon.

Thanks guys!
Have a great night!

Looking at the hi-res photos on Yoda's News, it seems to me that the 501st trooper is made with an AT-TE Gunner's body, not an SA Clone body.

Wierd.
