Ruprecht's Customs --Similar Stuff-- (Update 8/1/07)

[Ruprecht]

Here's one more before I toss in my Bounty Hunter guy. 

I call him the Commander Candy Corn.  My son, who is 7, said he wanted me to paint him a Clone, so I asked what colors.  He said "Orange, yellow, black, green, and red."  I narrowed him down to the first three and he notified me after he was all painted that I forgot the jetpack, holster, and custom guns.  Well, it's done now and he wanted me to take pics of it so he could see it on the computer.

That is actually a pretty cool custom

I don't know what kind of camo that outfit would help him hide out in (maybe a pumpkin patch?) but I actually like the paint scheme. Looks good.

[Ruprecht]

Thanks guys.

Maybe he'd totally kick arse in one of those Halloween corn mazes.

What a wild design!  Very different, and it look delicious.   

 

[Gregorbian]

Very original design!  I love it!  The lines are very crisp and sharp - excellent work!
The only suggestion that I have is that the white on the thighs looks a bit out of place - I would probably paint that yellow or something to match the rest of the "camo" pattern.

I think it's safe to say that your son definitely has the best Clone Trooper out of all of his friends!  Nice work!

[Ner_vod]

NEATO! (Hopefully a rancor doesn't mistaken it for candy and eat it....wait a minute, they'll eat anything)

My entry for the September 2005 Customizing Challenge. 

His name is Eidolon, formerly known as CT 44/001.  Previously served as Lieutenant to Commander Cody in the 212th Attack Battalion, Shadow Company.  Prior to that he served under Commander Fordo on Muunilinst, and Hypori, receiving promotions to Captain, then Lieutenant for outstanding service rendered.  After the Jedi Rebellion, he left galactic military life to pursue a more lucrative and satisfying career in bounty hunting.  He specializes in Long Range Recoveries and Assassinations, often contracting with the Galactic Empire to hunt down the ever-elusive Jedi traitors.  His handiwork in that regard is frequently broadcast over Imperial Holovision.

Figured I'd give him some kind of back story to make up for the fact that he is, after all, yet ANOTHER clone custom.  This was my first time messing with sculpting, and I learned a lot.  This guy took forever!

Now, lemme have it!

I commented in the Bounty Hunters thread, but I just noticed how cool that gun is! 
Is that first gun a truncated Clone rifle with a blade?  Whatever it is, great work!

[Ruprecht]

Thanks G.

The first gun is the backend of a clone rifle, with the front end of the GI Joe rifle below, which came with a lot of figures through the years, including Neo-Viper Commander.

Can't remember where the stuff came from for his second, larger gun.....looking that up now.

[Dimetrodon]

Awesome work those camo delta clones and the Aqua clone are amazing. The movies could have been so cool..

commander candy corn is nice too. came otu pretty good, and good move on skipping out of the green and red colors.

[Phrubruh]

I like commander candy corn the best. He's very halloweenish. He kind of reminds me of toxic waste maintenance guy. He's got the haz-mat colors.

I also like the red/black clone. I like all of the details hanging off of him. The gun holster is very cool. Too bad the chest isn't more smooth but I can say that his armor is just really pitted up. I lke the visor and the little symbol on the top.

[Smartypants1635]

Candy corn could work on sulust.
 the gas is toxic so it would be a perfect place for droids to set up there army without interferance from repub.
 until commander candy corn and his troops showed up
ther gear would blend in with the gas o yah im am so good. JK

[Ruprecht]

Non-update, nothing to see here.  Just putting up pics of my other Aqua Clone for a friend to see.  Dialup users, click the Back button ASAP!

Hi bjardkerr

Got me buggered how I missed this thread but glad I found it.

your candy corn clone is different yet very unquie and I like the different colours that you've used on him he would look good on a molten lava planet he'd blend in very well.

The bounty hunter looks bloody awesome I like all the added gear and equipment you've used on him very well put togther.

And your aqua clone is excellent I really like the cmao scheme you've given him and also I've noticed that you've use parts from the 1/18 elite force navy seal diver very well done without going overboard.
