Captain Kirk's customs
« on: January 16, 2010, 12:46:11 AM »
I don't have a lot of time to work on customs, so this probably won't be updated too often. This is my first custom figure, I did it in February of 2009 after I started watching Jay's and Steve's videos on Youtube. I don't have a name or story for him, but I was going for a Sith Nautolan. I tried to paint him up kind of like Darth Maul, with the red and black. I thought it came out pretty good and suited the figure well.

I used the Kit Fisto figure from the 2003 Clone Wars series, and the lightsaber whip (Don't know what they're called  :() was made from a stick that came with a C-3PO figure. It was used to hold up his Ewok throne chair. I let it sit in a sink full of hot water for about ten minutes, and then bent it to the shape I wanted, and painted it over with a red sharpie.

Thanks Clint! I'll try to do more customs, I just need to get more duplicate figures and more paint.

Thanks for the great comments everyone!

Thank you CloneCommander! Customs usually aren't my thing, and this is the only one I have ever done. But after seeing the amazing talent and the excellent customs on this site, I'll probably try to do more.
