Topic: Darth Creatine's Customs

[Darth Creatine]

Hello Everyone,

My name is Darth Creatine (Jon). Ares30 told me about this site over on Yakface when I was looking for a few Clone Trooper Casted parts. So I was sent here to look at Clonehead's List and decided to see if I was welcomed and possibly find a home to post my customs.

I dont really post anywhere much no more cause I quit customizing and so have most of my friends. I am now back and wanting to post somewhere so I figured start fresh here. So hello me.

First I have a "few" Clones on my WIP workbench and a Diorama I am painting to take Pics of my customs in front of. I thought I would post a few customs I did a little while back just to get my thread up and going. And to show everyone my work (Be it bad/great or decent, I love the criticism and advice)

Anyways here is my customs:

Darth Creatine: (Personal Figure of me if I was a Sith Lord, Made right before TOR Trailer. Resemblance is close I know)


Darth Bane: Original figure was made without Bane from Hasbro's release. When he came out his head was better so I used it. Not bad Orb's for a first time sculpter I thought.


My version of Captain Rex: (At or near Order 66, if he was alive still??)


Thats all I can find pics of to post right now so I will post these 7-8 I am working on when they are completed. Can we post ONLY Star Wars here or Marvel and such also. Or is there other forums for that?

Thanks for the Welcome's and PLEASE if something is wrong or could be better some how with my customs tell me. Criticism and advice IS welcomed. If you dont like my wash's per-se. Please tell me and if possible show me a site on how to improve it through a tutorial. I am not "The Greatest" so I love help. But I try my best.

Deff not here is some WIP's to show. I did not even use a Bane figure (Until the head came out) and I used a Windu head and Imperial knight outfit and Maul legs/skirting. First ever sculpt and use of Dremel.

Here are those pics:




Then I switched the head for Bane's once it came out cause I liked its look. I did not even know (Not much better now) how to use wash's perfectly so I painted each orb full on and no shadowing so I had to do it slowly and add black and color VERY slowly.

PS: More work went into the orbs with the dremel and also the shoulderpads came off and such but I took no more pics until completed sorry. In the first pic above with the Aves Apoxie ball on the figure case is the Orbs before I made it lol.

WoW....

I dont really know what to say to be honest. I am kinda silent and reserved now-a-days. I have had a rough road since my military discharge and lost my best friends to a drug problem (I was the one addicted, NOT them). I am 100% over it and clean now and kinda opening back up.

I mention this cause I am VERY hard on myself as of late and to get such good vibes and remarks makes me feel good. I really am not that good. I had alot of help when I first started customizing by a "Very" good friend of mine "Joe". I dont know if he wants his Customizing name revealed as I am not sure he does customs no more. I do know me and him no longer talk much. He talked me into sculpting Bane. He gave me the drive to do it cause I failed a few times and he pushed me to do it. So I give him all the credit. Actually the Darth Creatine and Bane figure I made was sent to him for free. He deserved them. He was my best friend and helped me ALOT...

Long story short. I never made a video cause I have nothing to teach people. I am still learning myself. I would love to one day but as of yet I dont think I am good enough to teach others. I might later. My wash's are ok on Bane but on others like battle damage and weathering mine aren't so good.

I hope to change that this time around.

Thanks again guys (Clonemedic96, TheCloneCommander and DroidDestroyer. Much Respect, Much respect and thanks from you all.

Thanks Wraithnine,

Coming from you it is an honor for sure. I was here originally looking to contact Clonehead for some casts and saw your 96 pages of customs and looked through them for hours and hours and then found the YouTube channel and watched alot of them for hours more.

You are VERY good. I would like to speak with you one day while you are customizing via webcam or somehow. I would like to do a few customs with you. It would be a great learning experience for me. I must say I love your Special Black Clone named "Cooler" he rocks. I tried to find a pic of him alone and couldn't.

Thanks Mate glad you like my customs. Anywho thanks again. Hope to hear from you soon. Really would like to chat with you sometime. I KNOW I can learn alot from you. Let me know what you think.

Phatty,

I use to not care what things loked like and also what people thought about me. I was truly a punk. For once in my life I am clean/sober and life is different and alot better. One thing is I care what others think and I try really hard to be the best I can. I love doing toys and have been re-introduced into painting. Thanks for your kind words and I plan on entering a contest soon. I have a few ideas in mind.

Welcome to the yards Jon
your sith customs are top-notch

great job

Thanks Mate,

I am glad to be here. I feel welcomed and after reading the above quotes. I got a sudden rush of Custom Syndrome. Ideas flooded my head so fast I had to write most down and draw up a few quick master prints with the airbrush to not forget the color schemes. It was a sudden rush and it was kinda cool.
