Well now, that is an amazing figure. Lots of attention to the small details that really make this figure special. Your fabric work is great as well and I like how you finished the edge of his robe/cloak. Great job all the way around.

Thanks Starchaser! These figures make me think that a watchmaker loupe or other type of magnifying glass might be a useful investment going forward.

Wow, you really nailed it.  The chain/winding cording on the collar of the jacket really makes it pop.  Is that sisal for the winding cord?  Leather?

I think you’ve set the bar for this one.

Thanks! I ended up using the same faux leather material as the jacket to make the cording, cut into fine strips and painted. You could use sisal or other thread for it as well.

Wow knock this one out the park, great composition of different media, 
How in the world did you do the wrap around the upper park
Of jacket with the chain.  Is that soft
Good belt around the waist.  Love your use of color. On the stripes on the arm did you raise it a little to give it volume.  Love you use of parts their really fit together well.  Applaud! My friend

I could see a watchmaker or jewelers loupe being a good investment.

So, like everyone else said, the figure is amazing.  All of its good, but like others, the jacket is my favorite part.  I like how the texture has that scaly, goes well with his lizard skin.  And the detail on the trim, holy cow!  really fantastic work.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanks again for all of the feedback- I really appreciate it! I've had some time this week to whip up another custom figure that I am excited to share with you, and she's not a barge reveler. As many of you surely know, The Mandalorian series on Disney+ is a massive amount of fun. If for some reason you haven't seen it yet, check it out! Sadly, 3.75" collectors have zero individually-carded characters currently available from the new series. So, while we are still waiting for main characters and perhaps indefinitely for any and all of the others, I put together one of my favorites from the show thus far.

The Armorer






Composition: Force Link 2.0 Boba Fett head, TVC Enfys Nest body, TVC Death Star Gunner hands, TVC Bom Vimdin shins & boots. Epoxy clay sculpts with leather kilt & linings and various other bits and bobs. Cameo by TLC Willrow Hood camtono (or is it an ice cream maker?  )

Wow, Aude this is genius! I wonder if Hasbro will ever give us this character in 1/18 scale. I bet they will in their beloved 6" line...
She's looking gorgeous! The helmet and the skirt are my favorite details. Most respect on the sculpting and choice of materials and colors!

Where did you get the tools from? They're brilliant!
Honestly her design gives some GoT vibes...coincidence?

Thanks! There are a couple aspects that I think I can improve, but I'm pleased with the way she turned out. The hammer was made from pieces of a skiff guard vibro-axe which was cut, sanded, and glued; the tongs were formerly a paperclip. The outfit feels like a mixture or Greek and Norse designs, but I can see the fur giving off a bit of the GoT aesthetic also.

I just got done rewatching episode three again. So cool. Off to the front pages.

She looks DAMN good! Excellent work, my friend. I've seen a few customs of her, but yours is a knock out!

[Tamer]

I had to get this gal on the top of the main page today. Still speechless how great she looks from the show. Just spot on. She is getting a lot of love on our Facebook Page too.

Wow. Love that Mando armorer!

[RC-1136]

I think I've decided on a cool fan name for her.

"Forgemother."

I know fans have taken to calling the baby Yoda "Yiddle."
