Very cool.  I got on a Lord of the Rings trip over the last couple weeks just playing the movies in the background.  One thing, though.  I believe the type of sword you have is being held backwards.  Just a suggestion.  What did you use for the helmet and shield.  Are they casts?

Yeah I put the sword in his hands both ways and I decided it looked better the way I posted it. I think it is suppose to be held the other way though. The helmet is just a modified Captain Argyus helmet. The shield is a resin cast that I make that is from a Captain America shield.

Are the supplies that expensive for resin casts?

To get started it's about 60 dollars. IF you can sell your parts then you can actually make some money. Nobody has shown inerest in my parts so I will probably just use them for my own customs.

Elf warrior is done. Enjoy.


Tom this is just awesome. It looks very Old Republic to me and I love it. Those ears are such a great touch and he also has a very shivilrus look as well. Great color choices and execution on all levels. You are really coming into your own with your work over the last several months. Great job!

Wow! I got Kesseled. I've been wanting to get him on a trading card. Thank you. If you want to see a really cool pic of him you should go to the art section and see what Stefan did to this Mando.

Hey guys. Some of you probably remember my attempt to make a Boba similar to Darklord1967's. Well I made some improvements to him and entered him in the contest going on at Echo Base News presented by Mercury Art Studios. I hope more of us will enter that competition and show all the other sites that we are pretty darn awesome over here at the "Yards". Anyways, getting back to Boba, I changed some things on him. Here is a list of the changes.

Used a 300th Boba head that I dremeled out and painted the visor glossy black. I also had to paint the dented part and the back section of the helmet a darker green.
I painted his left shoulder yellow
Cut off the small TVC Boba knee armor and added on the 300th Boba knee armor.
Made some Wookie braids out of Barbie hair and tied it off with thin black string.
Added some clear tubing to his right gauntlet.
Added the 300th Boba holster and blaster because the TVC holster got destroyed.

This post wouldn't be complete without a shout-out to Roberto a.k.a. Darklord1967. I can't wait to see his Boba Fett completed. If it wasn't for his inspiration I would have never attempted to make this figure.
