StenHunter's Custom Figures
« on: January 15, 2009, 11:16:52 AM »
Hello everyone,  I thought I would introduce myself and show off some of my work.

I have been an avid reader of Imperial Shipyards for a little over a year and have been a big fan of the great customizers here. I've been a Star Wars fan since it all started and a toy lover since I could crawl.  I've been really customizing for about 2 years, but I've been building models and painting toys and things for a long time.

I want to thank the guys who run this forum, for allowing guys like me to show off the work we all do.

Here is my main custom gallery: http://picasaweb.google.com/mypronmedia
I'm currently working on a repaint of the Hasbro AT-TE

Here are some direct links to just my Star Wars items.

Wow, Stenhunter!!  Welcome to the Shipyards! You have some really great stuff. I love your paint apps to the ATTE parts and especially the ATST. Great weathering job there. That looks like the work of a military modeler.  I thought that JSF turned out great and I love that you trouble shot the paint job on photo shop prior to paint application. I really like how the ATTE combat team turned out and I think the look of the concept fett with the blue paint is striking. Those quad cannons turned out great!  I like how Ysanne turned out and especially like the wash that you used on her uniform.
  I like that null arc and really like how his cape turned out!
  That ATHT is really cool. Have I seen your stuff on the Cusom Allience before?
Thanks so much for showing us your stuff, Stenhunter!! More customizers are always welcome here!
  I seen the ship model, the firetruck, and a mech model in your gallery. Good job on those. What other models do you like to build? Cars? Military?

Thanks for the great feedback Clonehead and Phatty. I'm just happy that there are places for customizers to show off their work.

Have I seen your stuff on the Cusom Allience before?
Yes, I've been on the Custom Alliance page for about 2 years. My first custom was a custom Gunship. It was the first "toy" I had really tired to customize. I didn't have nearly the tools and resources I have now.

What other models do you like to build? Cars? Military?
I am mostly a sci-fi model maker. One of my first was a Star Destroyer that I got about 15 years ago. I have a (fiber optic light up) Falcon and a druid snail tank that are in my queue to build sometime this summer. I've been trying to get my son into model building (hence the firetruck) but he is only 4.5 and not as interested in the hobbie yet as I am.

Phatty, thanks for offering to put up a page for me. Knowing I am in such great company means I have to up my game. =)



Clonehead: I love your clones man.. nuff said there. Awesome molds, and paint apps.

I like that gunship on your CA gallery, SH! It rocks!Is that an extra gunpod that you mounted below the wing?
  I too had a page up on CA for a year or two but can't find it anymore. I guess Curto forgot about me.
Yeah, like I said, the more custom guys here, the merrier. And thanks for the compliment on the clones, buddy!

Yep I have extra gun pod mounts under each wing. They are from the Clone Pilot pack. I mounted them and ran some tubing to them. I also have an extra set of cannons from the red clone sgt pack. Someday I want to go back and redo some of it with what I've learned in the last 2 years.

I guess my next goal is to master the resin mold. I did some molds for my tanks and those came out great but I would need to figure out helmets and armors before taking on that job.

Thanks!

Once again, that is one awsome gunship!
 I just made a new thread about resin casting in the customs resources section.

Hopefully it will help you out. If you have any questions, just ask.

Welcome Sten Hunter,

 You have done some really nice looking pieces. Thanks for sharring them here. I also like to scavange parts from the Elite forces line, I see a few mixed in on your tank, that basic platform of the elite tank offers a customizer alot of options, plus they are reasonably priced. I used a few from the raft on my swamp speeder and used teh guns as side cannons on a few ATATs.  The custom figures turned out well and and are imaginative.

Daggane this place is going customizing crazy! I love it! Sten Hunter, welcome to the yards. Ofcourse I am loving the heavy weaponry on that AT-HT. I thought I recognized some of those weapons too Sarge! Welcome to the yards and thanks for adding your pictures. As Phatty has hinted, we are planning for doing some dedicated pages for all the great custom things we have posted here so forum members can have easy access to all thier great items on one page.

Awesome use of those cheap corps vehicles!  no offense but I think I'm going to have to steel that tank idea.  I've been staring at that corps tank wondering wtf I could do with one...

And the wookie bounty hunter rocks!  I love it!  It could be a bit more beefy in the midsection but otherwise it's an amazing use of parts.  I am curious how posible the head is?

The head could turn slightly, but that was about it.  thanks everyone for the great feedback.

I've been un-customizing for a while and playing some Eve Online. However, I'm going to cut out some more time this coming June for more. I have an elite corps tank in my closet that I'm going to do, and I have to finish the AT-TE for sure. I also want to do some more vehicles...

Not Star Wars related, but started work on an easy repaint for a friend of mine who worked on the latest Transformers 2 Movie.

I bring you Starscream!
