The Kama comes from a 25th anniversary Serpentor figure from the G.I. Joe line.  I cut off the belt/pouches from Boba and wrapped the Kama around him.  the cape is from Mandalore, from the Mandalorian Legacy Evolutions pack.  I think it really is in contrast to Niner's normally reserved, no frills self.  His freedom from military life allows him to enjoy all that life has to offer, and I really wanted to show that in this one.

Fantastic custom! As Trev said, if you were to write a fan made ending to the RC series, i would gladly read it...that backstory is great! Oh, and the colour combo and paint apps look spot on!!

You guys have NO idea how bad I'd love to write that particular slice of Fan Fic.  However, I don't think I have the literary skills to produce anything worth while.

Next up is Atin Skirata.  His red armor is to reflect the lovely hues his wife, Laseema's skin shows.  The blue in his armor accents and fatigues represents the child they can not have due to a Twi'lek's inability to produce children with non-Twi'Leks.

Awesome Pat!! you are kicking butt with all these Clan Skiratas, thank you for doing them!!

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Ours has two zoom modes, "Up close and personal" and "Hello, you're dead

Oh, it is DEFINITELY my pleasure!  I hope to get Cor done tomorrow, and possibly Kad as well.  I may go buy the FU boxed set just to get that Marek for my Kad.

Great job on Niner and Atin Pat.
The backstory is very interesting.

My favorite of the two is Niner. The Kama looks really good on the figure

to be honest i think niner looks a bit unreal-ish  with that kama and does laseema have red skin because if so ... shes a... very   very  very  rare twi'lek oohhh and by the way what about tay'haii or whatever his name is hes got violet armour with dark red undersuit .................................... and i have a idea for corr .......... use a apartment jango stick a bat  arms on his and and use the armor for his armour

if i am not mistaken season 2 of the clonewars had a deserter that was shacked up with a twi'lek and they had kids

Um, yes.  Having done exactly this before, I can say it does work and works quite well.   :o  ;D

Pat - since I'm playing catch-up, I had to go WAAAAAY back and start looking.

WOW!!!

With two minor asides, my son and I want to say your techniques are DARN FINE!!!

minor quibble #1 - Brendan/Adgala'ar isn't convinced your color choices are exactly accurate.  However, as you pointed out, some of the colors are not rendering faithfully.

minor quibble #2 - those arthritic hands!!  LOL  We think you should change out hands on some of them, just to mix things up.

Like I said, minor quibbles.  The better a custom (or series of them) is, the more obscure and picky the commentary on them!  So, hopefully that'll tell ya how friggin AWESOME your work looks on this side of the 'Station's screens!
