Man!  Those are so cool.  The paintwork is breathtaking!  Your pics are a feast for my eyes.   One question: What head were you using for Kal??  It is perfect and I would like one for my own Skirata,

I used the Montross' head from the Jaster/Montross comic pack.  I kind of went nuts and bought three of them.  One was part of the case that I justified as a self- birthday present, one was for a self-Christmas present, and one was just happened to be at the right place at the right time kind of thing.  I plan on using the Montross body for a Mando I did with a Jango body.  Originally, he was Boris (you can find him in my pages).  Now I'll use that head (which is a Vintage Rebel Trooper) on the Montross body.  And Jango's body is now one of the Null ARCs you see in that last set of updates.  It'll all worked out except, now I need a body for Walon Vau.  I'll have to hunt up another Jango body and a head that looks somewhat, if not, very aristocratic.  Any suggestions are appreciated.

Excellent!  I love seeing customs from the Republic Commando series!

Ever since I picked up the hobby and read the books, I knew I had to do these.  Now it's time to do a Walon, Etain, Jusik, Besseny, Laseema, and that should get most of the characters I want.  Of course, then there's Jaller, Parja, and, and, and,..............

Each of these is a masterpiece in its own right!  Seeing them all together at once just may be too much for my health!   ;D

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

thank you so much.  Again, I have the need to get the other characters going.  I have a Walon Vau on the to-be-done shelf this week or weekend.  Also, you can't do any of this without an Etain.  Also, on the shelf.  So much to do, so little time (and $$$).

Well, here's another one.  Bardan Jusik.  Just before he leaves the Order.  I believe it was after he left that he cut his hair.  Here it's in a ponytail.  Of course, the picture doesn't do the figure justice.  You can't tell that there are two tones of green.  I'm thinking of changing that but for now, I don't have the right shade of green, yet.  Let me know what you all think.

It adds to the mystery and mystic of the time period.  But YES, I wish they would finish it, too.

Wow!   :o  Very well done.  I can just make out the difference in the tones of green.  (I think you're right; he cut his hair after he left the Order.)
