Thanks Starchaser!

And Tamer, you're right; these kinds of characters are the best thing about Star Wars toys. Without the weird and the ugly Star Wars collecting is boring. Do I really need another Clone repaint?  ::)

Ok, shit, this one is REALLY exciting! My wife is out of town for the weekend so I've been painting a lot!

This is another 3d print project, but mixed with Disney Droid parts. The head, chest, crotch, and glue-on shoulder armor are 3D prints from Cal Keb (@audes_workshop on Instagram).
The arms and legs are (expensive fodder) from the Disney 4-LOM figure.

The chest and crotch pieces have ports that fit the Disney BAD arm and leg pegs so this 3D custom is fully articulated! But probably a little more delicate than a Hasbro figure.

I can see why you are stoked. That's a brilliant custom! Great paint job and great assembly. He looks really magnificent.

Some older customs I don't think I've shared here.

I think think I did these head-swap Death Star Troopers like 20 years ago.

Another simple head-swap, but I had to dremel the head to mount it on the new ball-style neck joint.

I had to alter the neck ball joint to mount this Boss Fight head.

Nice updates. I like the Boss Fight head on the Rebel Fleet Trooper. I also like having the Depa Billaba figure action ready. She's great.

Man I get so busy, I don't get to come on here and comment much, but I see your stuff all the time on FB.  All of it is great and you have one of my favorite display/dio set ups.  But, dang, that Q9-0 is slick as hell.  I'm sure it was pricey to make, but it looks awesome.

I've been post-slacking. Have some catching up to do (especially over on the Outpost 423 thread).

Weathered the droids Fett.

Nice! I really like the weathering on Boba. The Mauldalorian paint job is fantastic. It really captures the feel of that "faction" in a realistic form.

I agree that made that Boba look so much better. Nice, I like the new Mando too.
