Topic: NFC's Star Wars customs (4/4 - random WTH)

Very nice Sith you have recreated. Nice sculpting and paint aps.

[night force cynic]

thanks for all the kind words from everyone      I'm damn proud of this one, I just wish someone that rad looking was my idea first   

your customs are great hey what paint do you use cause the pasint looks like the paint hasro uses

I used Citadel paints, Poly Scale paints, and Testor's mModel Master acrylic paints on all my customs

[night force cynic]

this is my Noghri custom, finally uncovered the pictures


YES he IS short.  

Why?  

Because that's how Zahn described them to be in his book.  And the Dark Horse came along and SCREWED IT UP ROYALLY in that goddamn AWFUL comic adaptation of Heir To The Empire where's they were taller than the humans!

JD, I've been meaning to reply to your latest updates, but [insert random excuse].
Love those Mandos, and this latest Noghri custom... Very cool indeed.
That Lord Phabian figure is cool as all get out. Love the [bleep] outta that one.

[narceron]

dude, you gotta chill out on that language, man, lol.

Its like a pirate is customizing,


I thought the noghri was munchin as well. .. comics rarely do the source material justice, then again, neither do movies, lol.

dude, you gotta chill out on that language, man, lol.

sorry, folks, it's just that the adaptation was so atrociously bad in every respect that it still gets under my skin after all these years, can't help it.  LOL

Oh man, I think I forgot to finish commenting on your recent customs... oops... Anyways, the general gist of it was that I absolutely LOVE your fully articulated Kit Fisto! He's one of my four favorite jedi (thanks to the Clone Wars actually giving him a voice / personality), and I totally agree with you that a swimming Fisto needs to not be pre-posed. I keep hoping hasbro will release a really good one (cursed face and "talk to the hand" pose on the Geonosis 2-pack one!), but I think you've done all that needs to be done! Excellent work, make some more of them and sell one to me!

I just thought about something, didn't the noghri follow vader and later leia's commands?

Whatever happened to them?

Last I read of them was in the Yuuzhan Vong storyline I THINK, travelling on the Millenium Falcon and still with Leia. 

They were pretty actively mentioned in many books for a long while after The Last Command ended but they eventually sort of fell out of use it seemed.   Could be wrong though.

[narceron]

here is what I remember, vader crashed a ship into their homeworld and subjugated them.

and they were ninja chipmunks.

man, they need to make them ot fight those midgit ewoks.

[night force cynic]

midget chipmunks?


LOL

[Clone_General_1977]

Those are pretty cool

[dana.raye.smith]

I believe the last 2 Noghri mentioned in the books were Cakmaim and Meewahl, Lady Vader's honor body guards.
And I think they killed them off in the last big Jacen goes Darkside storyline...
Nothing but mention after the novel Tempest...
I always imagined them as  roughly Ughnaught sized with a Bossk type head and  feet and new clawed hands... the taller Ughnaught....

[night force cynic]

I started a new Sith custom the other day...  Been under the weather, not in the creative mood the last few days but that will change this weekend.  And when the new Sith is done, it will be another follower of Lord Kaan, to go with my posted customs of Lords Firrwk and Phabian.

NFC, WOWZER! your customs are really unique. Your photos really do the figures justice, and as the site Design Engineer I commend you on your fine work and presentation.

It's guys like you who give others the motivation and inspiration to create somethig a little different.

Really fantastic!
