CHEWIE's customs updated 06.22.2012

[UKHistory]

Chewie,

BRAVO!  The gotal is perfection.  That figure looks like it walked right out of the movie.  I really like how you used the myoom torso.  I thought it looked good but you have put that to great use.  Just like the Sala and Cairo henchman figures.

Perhaps my favorite thing you did was the paint job on Enloe's wife.  I prefer the painted look over a glossy plastic skin color. 

You are an inspiration to us all!

PS--Definitely read the Brian Daley stories.  Behind the late, great Daley and Timothy Zahn, I like your stories the best.

[CHEWIE]

Thanks UK... sounds like I need to check out the Brian Daley stories at some point...

[Daigo-Bah]

These are gorgeous as usual.  I never really noticed how many customs of yours have some portion painted baby blue!

[Commissar]

I like the General Snodd figure.

arms - OTC Lobot

body - SAGA2 Lushros Dofine
hands - ROTS Meena Tills


Boosk the Bargawin Boozer - I had an extra Hermi Odle, so why not paint him up and call him a different alien...

Another batch of custom awesomeness!

I really like the Sullustan Jedi and I'm looking forward to seeing him in Chapter 25, (in the near future?)

[CHEWIE]

Less time these days to customize... but still getting 4-5 customs done each month... here we go!


Greezie - Fan fiction Gran that will appear on Dantooine later on in the Rykrof Enloe series.  This guy really has limited articulation... despite his size, he's a peaceful fella.

arms - TAC Umpass Stay
hands - TAC Umpass Stay

Twi'lek Assassin - My entry for this month's Yakfinities... I need to get on the ball and make another custom for this month!  But anyways, I kind of liked the idea of her being a rough, hardcore looking woman who has a deadly serpent that she uses often to take out a target quietly/



head - Comic Pack Darth Talon
torso - TAC Maris Brood
arms - Comic Pack Mara Jade
legs - TAC Maris Brood
snake - Indy young Indiana Jones



Vioge - Bith citizen of Coruscant.  Just felt like doing something different, she'll probably just be a background filler in a diorama and may pop up in a photonovel... funny thing, on this I first painted the pants blue, then went back to red, just as the base figure had, yikes.



head - Jabba's Palace Bith

arms - Clone Wars Obi Wan
thighs - TAC Death Star Trooper
shins - ROTS SA Clone



Zeedo Chissis - Another version of this Badoo Corba meanie from the photonovel series, was inspired by the current Yakfinities, Assassins.  This is the 5th or 6th version of Zeedo, and each time he's had non-Rodian hands, which for whatever reason I refuse to fix.   :lol:

torso - Clone Wars clone trooper

torso - TAC Mace Windu
arms - TAC Mace Windu
gloves - SAGA ROTJ Luke
tunic - TAC Mace Windu

hands - ROTS Meena Tills
belt - VOTC Han Solo
legs - Evolutions Vader's Apprentice




The Force Unleashed Shaak Ti - This is for the Group Project!  A very fun figure to work on, though a bit frustrating too.  I know she's not 100% accurate, and I might tweak her a bit later, but for now I'll probably leave her as is.



head - ROTS Shaak Ti
torso - ROTS Aayla Secura
arms - TAC Maris Brood
tunic - Indiana Jones Ugha Warrior

Looks good Chewie.  Hope this means a new PN chapter coming soon.

[David]

That is a superb batch of customs, I actually really can't find a favorite this time around they're all so good. The Gonk Droid and the Obi-Wan are pretty neat though.

Looking forward to Chapter 26!

[patreektherodian]

Was the Givin Psycho inspired from the movie scream.

[ruiner]

Love the Obi Wan and 'broken' octopus droid.

[patreektherodian]

Ancient Gonk.  Good use of a useless accessory.

[CHEWIE]

Thanks guys.  As you can probably see, I've really slowed down on customizing lately.  It's getting hard to find time to do it and work on photonovels.  The interest is still there, but the available time is getting to be less and less.  So, updates are probably going to be less frequent moving forward.

Regarding the psycho, yeah I like that for a Halloween theme custom.  I did a similar one last year -




Also, I did finish a couple more customs a couple days ago -

Commander Rykrof Enloe - In "off duty" outfit while aboard a Republic Star Destroyer in the next chapter in my photonovel series.



head - SAGA Endor Rebel
torso - TAC Death Star Trooper
arms - TAC Death Star Trooper
legs - ROTS Prisoner Palpatine
tunic - Comic Pack Grand Moff Trachta
hands - not sure



General Trachta - I just did this because I was disappointed with the Comic Pack version of "Grand Moff Trachta" so I decided to swap out the parts to make him look a bit more Imperial, and I figure before he was a Grand Moff he was a General at some point.  So, he might appear like this in a photonovel someday.



head - Grand Moff Trachta
torso - Grand Moff Trachta
arms - TAC Death Star Trooper
tunic - TAC Death Star Trooper
legs - TAC Death Star Trooper



Regarding the photonovel front, here's some previews to Chapter 26 (exclusive for JD, heh) -

[David]

Looks terrific, can't wait!!!!

[Deanna Rash]

  Most AWESOMENESS! Chewie !You do such great work!
