I totally agree with your review on this and how badly it needs updating.

I like your version, it is now sporting on our fp.

Well congratulations! That is your best custom yet. Ah what fun times you are getting ready to have. As I am writing this my five year old is shrieking down the hallway. I think every house needs those types of sounds. The only advice I will give you is to sleep when you get the chance even if its in the middle of the day!

One of the best sculpts I've ever seen.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

That's funny!! But we actually did take him to the doctor yesterday (his 8th day) to have a some cutting done! OUCH!!

Although he wasn't named, per se, after our own Imperial Shipyard's Jules, they do share the same name. My wife and I have a 2 yr old son together that we named after my dad's side of the family. So with number 2, I decided to name him after my mom's side of the family, and originally was going to give him the middle name Craton - which is Irish from O'Craton. So we started coming up with various other Irish/UK names to go with Craton, and when I looked through a baby book, I came across the name "Julian" and that was it! I was dead set on the first name Julian. Then my wife and I decided against naming our son Craton (which he our my boys go by their middle names), so she found the name "Cash." So in reality, everyone calls the baby Cash, but I call him "Jules."

And for any that don't know (you might want to sit down) - I know Justin (Yak Chewie) knows, but total "baby count" this makes NUMBER ELEVEN for our family!! We have a blended family of hers (5), mine (4), and ours (2) - ages run from 22 years (junior in college) to a week old. So, yeah we have a busy life!!
