Thanks, Ron. 
   Also, here are two new pics of my WIP Jedi.  I think he is turning out well, and I am using a new kind of paint on him.  I think he is going to be my best custom yet.  Also, I should have my custom grey camo ARF trooper up soon.  I'll try to work on him soon.  Until then, please enjoy these new pics. bbfet

Thanks.  I also needed to add that I need to paint over the sharpie and add the head, then I'm done.  So, this is just about 65 percent done! bbfet

Did the paint not dry? I find testors do that so switched to Games Workshop Citadel Miniatures paints and it worked alot, alot, ALOT better. Go hunting for it, man.... I can't wait to see the compleated jedi, the sharpie over the plastic looks really great, almost a worn effect! ;D

It dried, but I think it's just the way the paint looks.  I'll be painting over the sharpie soon, but thanks for saying you like it.  Where do you think I can find it?  I was using Testors, but I decided not to as well. bbfet

Okay, here's my latest custom!  It's my new Camo ARF trooper!
Camo ARF Trooper:
This Advanced Recon Fighter (or Force) was one of the two scouts on Teth during the Clone Wars.  He and his partner were able to find the abandoned monastary so that Anakin and Torrent Company could attack the monastary, saving Jabba the Hutt's son from the Seperatists.
I used the new paint on this custom, and I think it turned out REALLY well.  This is probably my favorite custom I've made, so far.  The next custom should be the TOR Jedi Knight or maybe another clone.

Nice Arf! I found my paints at a store called Games Workshop. If you know Warhammer, then where ever you go to get those sets are probably selling the Citadel Miniatures.

Thanks, guys!  Also, Theclonecommander, I actually didn't watch the tutorial.  I just saw theirs and I own the CW movie so I could look at that for a painting idea.  Thanks again, guys! bbfet

Republic Commando ?s?
Obi-Wan in Clone armor

Hey, guys, what do you think of a cape on the Jedi?  I posted a pick of it.  The hood may look funny, but it'll probably look better with a head on the fig, lol. 
Also wanted to say that I added two Mandalorian protectors and a red mando to my customs list.  I should be getting the mandos later this year, hopefully.
