Thanks to everyone who checked out the New Republic Jedi posted recently!

Here's a WIP pic of a clone bounty hunter, using the AT-RT Driver as the base fig.  I plan on repainting the entire torso/waist and adding some armor along the way.  Let me know what you think and suggestions are always welcome:

It looks like a superarticulated marvel to me. Keep this going!

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I am so tempted to paint up a RC helmet I got from Clonehead and use it on this guy, but then it would make him look distinctly more like a specialized clone trooper instead of the "bounty hunter" look I've been slowly working toward.  We'll see what feels right the next time I get a chance to work on him...school's starting up in a week and customizing hits the back burner then!

Cool figure!
You could use a Mando helmet on him OR you may want to put a Mando helmet faceplate into a Veers helmet and add a rangefinder.

The range finder & Veers helmet is an interesting idea...I'll look into it...

Oh that's nice - I really like characters over clones...

Where did you get the lower legs from? He has a great authentic Star Wars feel to him :)

The lower legs are from the TFU 5-pk (2009): Starkiller in heavy training gear.

The feet are from a Kashyyk trooper, repainted.

Well, here he is, finally finished: Desh Gannar...bounty hunter!

I originally wanted a helmet of some type for this guy, but none of the concoctions I used seemed to look right on him.  In the end, I found a breather mask (from some GIJoe fig) and it worked out much better than I had hoped.  He's got two looks: one with breather mask and one with cloak; I'm not sure which one I like him in better...

I also experimented in creating slight rust stains on his armor; some of his shoulder armor has dents and gashes, but I guess he hasn't changed his chest armor for awhile.

Let me know what you think!

That is a great looking custom! I vote for the first look with the mask. He looks more "real" to me that way. The Ki Adi cloak seems to take away from your work weathering his armor with that bandolier in the front. I really like this guy, well done!
