Man he is awesome.  For some reason I see him as having that knife thing that the vintage Ig-88 came with.  Thats what I thought you had on him at first! Great work.  I would love to get a hold of a couple of those heads!!

That is such a refreshing custom and I agree with Clonesniper, he also reminds be of the mentor character from Kill Bill. I love the mic of parts.

I like him alot and knew that the Embo figure would be the perfect donor of some great parts.  That does it. I must mold Embo's shoulder armor piece.

Awesome! kinda reminds me of Pei Mei from Kill Bill.

Quentin Tarantino borrowed the character Pei Mei from the Shaw Brothers movies Clan of the White Lotus and Executioners from Shaolin.   The original character was much more interesting than Tarantino's version though :)

Glad you like the video.

Just did a post on the blog that was inspired by the "Togruta Jedi" recently posted by customizer Tokiravensky.

Wow those are awesome! Very nice work and the Zartan body is great for this. I love the one with the chest markings. So did you dremel the face off  Ayla till it was just the tails and put that on the Zartan head?

On the first male Togruta, all I had to do was boil the head until the glue got soft enough to just pull them apart.  On the second, I did have to dremel it off.  I dremeled the second Zartan head to get rid of the wool hat and extend the forehead on that one and then glued the tails on after I had the paint done.  I lov ethe new Shaak Ti figure for the ability to create other Togruta.  The Zartan is great for the heads and for the accessories. 

Thanks for all the good feedback everyone,
