Darth McBaine's Custom Figures
« on: March 27, 2019, 02:42:43 AM »
Hi all,

after a very long time away from customizing I have found the time to pick it up again and would like to share my customs with this community.

I hope you'll enjoy my figures!

Let me start off with a Mon Calamari thug going by the name of Tettye:

Let's hope I manage to post a picture of him....

Welcome back, Darth! It's great you've found time for the hobby, again, and that you now share them with us here!
Excellent on the paintjob of the Mon Cal! The edges look VERY nice and clean on his body and I also like the shiny effects on the head sculpt!
The Advosze looks interesting, too! At first view I wasn't even sure if the coat was a plastic or leather one! Very good painting here as well! Much respect from Germany & keep up the great work, please!

What a warm welcome!

As I unpack my customs from their boxes it looks like many need a bit of touching up and I would like a nicer backdrop for the photos.

Here, however, one I did recently with one of the Moroff figures I found on clearance:

Final customs for today: a couple of rebels in the fight on Scariff and a group of bureaucrats:

Your work is fantastic.  I love all the colors and the deep contrasts between the shadows and highlights.  I especially like the Moroff and the Mon Calamari.  Great job!

Wow, this is awesome! I wonder how many custom figures you already made to share here. These are a lot so far!
And I agree with Moronarama: your work with contrasts, colors and light-dark effects look phenomenal! I’m going to repaint a Wookie completely as soon as I got time.
The four bureaucrats look great! Are the bodies from an Indiana Jones figure? The headsculpts on them look great and remind me of the Rebel Alliance Battle Pack 75133 from LEGO based on EA’s Star Wars Battlefront Video Game. Love the blue one!
I’m sure, Tamer will post some of these on the front page tomorrow, again and I can only imagine how many masterpieces of yours are yet to come!

Very inspiring work of art so far!

Thank you for sharing them with us!

They are Indy figures indeed.

Thanks for the compliments all!

It's great fun upacking them, there are so many I have no recollection of making.

Furthermore, there are quite a few I took apart that are going for silly prices on ebay now...no regrets though!

Really fun set of customs. I particularly like your Moroff, the Pote Snitkin tunic is a great addition. The Mon Cal build is really nice too. Welcome.

Outstanding work! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks everyone!

He're's another recent one: a Talz I made with the Moroff body.
