Nice one, NFC! Was he a death star gunner/clone engineer fig, at one time?
it;s the Imperial Scanning Crew figure with a sculpted mustache.   Amazing how versatile that figure turns out to be, I ended up picking up a second one when I went back to the store after I finished this custom

Nice repaint of the scanning crew trooper. We can use more Imperials anytime!

good looking crew chief. I can see him running a tight ship deck.

I can't do vehicle customs of my own.   I've never finished one that wasn't a repaint and even some of those have never actually gotten done. 

oh...so you're an Ameri can't, :)


LOL

you can do it, man, just needs to be the right project.

This is MY interpretation of Heater's gang from the Star Wars radio drama.   In the show, it's Heater (Jabba's #1 goon) that shows up at Docking Bay 94 to ask about Han's new charter and to clarify why it was that Solo had felt the need to kill Greedo. 
In the show, there's no indication at all what any of them look like and none of them but Heater have names.  In MY mind Heater was a Nimbanel (which was probably influence in my young mind by Marvel's adpation of Star Wars) and it seemed fitting that all of his crew would be aliens, like a reverse case of xenophobia. 

unfortunately, none of the customs here except Heater have names either, I couldn't think fo anything.  Please help me name the Ithorian, the Zeltron, and the two Klatooinians.

NFC, those are some awesome customs, my friend! I love your interpretations of the characters in the Star Wars radio drama.
You have a great imagination, buddy. Of course, these are on the front page.

I love the chick's hippie jeans... LOL! awesome.

the other figs are great too.  heater's neckband/shoulder pad thingie...? where did it come from? was that scratch built?  it looks killer!

NFC, you need to do some sculpted heads and send them to me, clint or outlands to get them cast up in resin!

any future sculpted heads I do I will send them to one of y'all to be casted

but Heater's head was meant to be Heater's head for this custom, I wanted it, nay, needed it to be unique to him.

Ah, very creative.  Heater and gang look great.  I don't recognize all the parts-mostly for the Klatooinians, which is a testament to your creative use of parts and paint.  This is just the sort of gang I would want for my own collection.  Nice work.

Very nice interpretation on these never before seen characters. I too love customs like these, something you don't see every day.

Good stuff like the color scemes and the depth of the work
