Wow, great paint work here. Off to share.

Thank you sir!

Red is hard to do so smoothly. Nice job with the paint and the decal works great.

Layered painting and that floor polish as a sealer. That's the key.


Great looking droid! Paint is nice and shiny. I still haven't gotten my Hunter, but the backpack looks totally new. Can't really compare it lol. I don't know what's going on with hasbro with there preorders anymore.

Thank you! It really makes the metallic look feel real. And yes, Hunter backpack is a new sculpt. It has a very large peg that plugs into the back much like the newer Mandalorians if you have those.

She turned out quite well, she'll interact nicely with the TVC clones. Really good mix of parts to achieve the look.

Looks really great! Very good use of parts. One could use a similar recipe for a comic Leia.

Repainted a Boba Fett head to be Captain Rex.

That looks great!

Thank you! I like it much, much better.

Found a use for the old head.

I do feel that the clones remind me a little bit of the classic G. I. JOE: same head, different hair color or facial hair :)

Brilliant work on CW Padmé! Your work on the Clone heads is very good. I think the Boba head provides the best likeness for TCW Captain Rex. Brilliant idea to use his original head for a custom Airborne Trooper. Nice additions to your growing custom collection!

So I had the spare TVC Boba Fett body...

And I thought to myself, why have I never made Kal Skirata from the Karen Travis Republic Commando novels? So I did just that.

A spare Marauders Task Force head I had floating around in my fodder bin. I just repainted the hair and beard.
