I have to echo everyone else's posts.  You did a great job on these!  I've been going back through looking at the combination of parts and little details you painted.  Excellent work.

Lenny,

What wonderful customs.  I have to say that I never realized General Madine could be such a versatile base figure for customs.  I love these.  Hard to pick a favorite.  They are great.

Ordered a 3d Bantha from etsy. A little minor sanding and a relatively easy paint job....looks pretty vintage to me. Raided my kids construction paper for the background.

 Very effective background with the construction paper. What a great shot!
  They have 3D banthas on Etsy?

And now my comments. I like it. It is perfect for vintage figures. Love the background you made too. Perfect. Reminds me of a wishbook style add you would see in the old holiday catalogs!

That's pretty cool. The whole scene has a wonderful vintage "vibe" to it - thanks in no small part to your clever construction paper background. Thanks for the heads-up on a another potential resource.

Around 6 or 7 years ago I grabbed a lot of 20 Indiana Jones Russian soldiers off of ebay. I think it cost me 25 bucks or so. They were readily available at the time on the cheap. Come to find out they were rejects. The didn't stand straight or bend properly.  Regardless I used them to make 10 rebel troopers, 6 ground crew and 4 officers. Dug them out this weekend upon receiving the Tantive IV.

Nice! You have a good crew for the Blockade Runner. Is that a Dooku head under the captain's helmet?
