thats EverGrey  his sculpts absolutly defy belief

[JediMerc]

Amazing link!!! how do get a hold of those DARTH PLAGUEIS  sculpts?

He sculpted all of hem himself...he wants to unload them, but won't sell them individually.  He's got the entire set up priced at....$9,000!  I know: out of most of our price ranges.  We can still admire them from afar...

[Mando Assasin]

Those head's are SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Spookymufu]

yeah I commented on his post, I tried to keep from saying "are you out of your freeking mind at $9000!!?" but I was nice about it. I dont care what he says, they arent worth $9k but most of them look great!

[Luke Sprywalker]

Holy sheite muslums. I have seen his work, and it is really good, I just don't see his point in having to sell his painted versions together with his unpainted cast heads. I would agree that his painted ones would be very pricey but dang, $250 for a head cast?

[Tamer]

Awesome work to be sure.

[sith_fire30]

Work is awesome but not 9000 dollars awesome.

Merc - Big fan of Starkiller - Fantastic work!!!

[Mr. Black]

$9,000? I could by my own ship for that! And I'll fly it myself

[YakFace]

Mmmmmk I have seen this guys work before, really nice sculpts. I can't get the feeling of "rip off" out of my head when I see a $9000 price tag on head casts. Thats just crazy, also I remember this guy saying he couldnt sell his work because he used to work for someone who wouldnt allow that. I'm guessing an ex Hasbro employee?

Well it you ever make it an at-at perhaps I could assist! Point well made though sir!

[JediMerc]

Hey there everyone...still customizing, but finding time to photograph and post these has been extremely difficult...kids are getting older, soccer games to go to, oh, and keeping up with work.  Finally found 30 minutes to myself and figured I should start to get some of my recent customs over here.  It's been a loooooong while!

I've been tinkering lately with alternate outfits for popular characters, particularly Han Solo and the Skywalkers (Luke, Anakin, and Cade).  More of those images posted in the near future...alright, now onto some new work!

Unlike some, I thoroughly enjoyed the dark approach the authors of the NJO took with the saga characters, but I was still disappointed at how prominent the standard Jedi robes seemed to be. I wanted to see some armored Jedi, dawg-gone-it!  So I made my own (in the design of something I expected to see in that series).  Here's Master Luke Skywalker, of the NJO.  He's not entirely finished; I want to dirty him up some more with a few washes, but that will have to wait for the time being.

This will be the first of a series of Skywalkers I've done up in alternate outfits:

[Mando Assasin]

That is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

[darthdaddy]

Like it a lot

[JediMerc]

Also been doing a lot of simple parts-swapping as I've been unable to find a decent chunk of time to paint many figures lately.

Here's the second in the line of alternate outfits I've targeted for the Skywalker family...this time it's Cade Skywalker, looking more like he's decided to take the path of the Jedi following the events of Legacy: War (but not quite buying into it entirely):
