I think my site went down for a bit last night, but it should be working fine now.  Sorry about that.

RYKROF-I dig the helmet job. Thats the Pilot helmet, yes?

TALABAR-Yikes. He actually looks lind of stylish. Does he have a page in GQ?

Yep, the helmet is just a Clone Pilot's helmet.  I just decided it might be nice to go with another look for him.

I'm working on a scene specific diorama right now for the next Rykrof photonovel.  It's taking forever to make.

Talabar -  I like the use of the bustup bossk for this figure.  I had never thought of using bustups as custom fodder.  The bustup makes this figure its own unique Trandoshan instead of a Bossk clone.  Great job.

Funny,
 I made that Same Trandoshen using those same parts only I kept the Orig. Color for the Uniform. He's going to be in the fist Action Sequence of my Photo Novel.
 Here's the Pic


I love the Rykrof in Clone Armor, but I'm a sucker for Clones.

One thing I would suggest is mabey padding the inside of his helmet. When he has it on it sits to low and it looks like he has no neck.

Keep up the Great work.

Wow, that's a great preview pic.  I like your version of the Saurin/Trandoshan better than mine.  It looks like your photonovel is really going to be awesome.

On the Rykrof, I think the Clone Pilot helmets kind of look bigger actually, but the padding idea is a good idea.

And here's a sneak preview to my next photonovel, all natural, nothing digital here.  I've been working on some "real life" sets for this one, which will be called DARK EXCHANGE.

nice preview CHEWIE. i dig the battle torn floor and walls especially, there is some nice weathering on the upper part of the walls.

trandoshan - i like the use of the bust up parts, they look really good. i have always wanted to ask, what do you use for your maroon/dark red color on your customs? it always looks great!

I am green with envy of the evolutions clones you have....

I'd probably weather their helmets a tad more, though.  They look kind of stark white compared to their body armor.  Just a thought.

As always, great job on your other customs.  I really dig the clone Rykrof, his helmet and backpack are a good combo.  The pack takes some of the emphasis off the helmet's largesse.

Take everything positive I've ever said about your customs and apply them to your most recent ones, and now I'm caught up! 

Yes, I am a lazy turd.   :P

Yeah, I see them now. No need to be sorry.

       That's a cool Trendoshan, but I love the Rykrof in armor. It's looks really cool. With that preview pic, did you say you were doing a new photonovel? Not with Rykrof, but with a whole new storyline? If so, I can't wait. Especially since it's all natural.

Thanks guys.  That floor/wall took me all night last night to make, plus I added a new section today.  It's all foamcore.

jedistyle - Thanks.  Usually for a maroon color, I just mix red with black to get the color that I want.  Not really much of a plan usually, I just go with whatever is easiest.   ;)

bjardkerr - Well I had to buy all those clones separately from a local friend.  I agree their helmets look too white.  I might be able to fix that a bit. 

Darth Nirvana - Thanks - yeah I am working on another photonovel, but it's still the Rykrof Enloe series - it will be the 18th story in the series actually.   Sorry if I made it sound like an all new series.

Here is another preview pic -

I like what you did with the place. Those blaster marks really add a touch of class and elegance, to an otherwise simple Industrial themed room.

 ;D

Expect a PM in a few moments, my friend.

Thanks.  This will be a heavily war torn area.  Gonna be fun I think with the best twist yet (or so I hope I can pull it off correctly).

Oh, okay. I thought it was another installment, just checking. In that last preview pic, is the fig a new custom? I don't recognize it, and it kind of looks like a Joe or a BBi figure.
