Really nice work on dash; absolutely one of my favorite smuggler/merc characters from SW.  I love seeing the Outrider in there as well; it's been a loooonnggg time since I saw one of those!

Terrific job!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Hey all,

Thanks for the really kind words about my custom Dash - you guys really know how to boost the confidence of a fellow customiser!!

Here's a quickie-custom carrying on with my Shadows Of The Empire fetish!





This Luke is made from a TVC Endor capture bodyand saber. TVC Bespin Head, blaster and belt. Comchip Han vest and random hands!

He is based on Luke's outfit from the cover of the novel - a figure that I've always wanted Hasbro to produce... Here he is with his 'minder'



I'm planning on doing a Leebo, Swoop and Luke in Coruscant Guard Armour too...

WB out!

That is one great custom. I always felt this was a custom Hasbro missed out on.

As soon as I saw this on the fp, I knew I'd have to copy your recipe for my new updated SOTE Luke!

My old one was a mixture of the old Death Star trooper's legs with some assorted Luke parts.  The pieces I used never seemed "right" to me, but now with the updated Jedi Luke body, I'm going to give this one another shot. 

Thanks for the inspiration!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

Wow thanks lads! Esp Phatty for the FP  ;D

Looking forward to seeing some more versions of this Luke from you guys!! As I've said many times Luke has always been my favourite character right back since 77!

I've decided that as well as a Coruscant SOTE Luke I'm going to carry on and do Leebo, Swoop with bandit and Chewie as Snoova (this one will stretch my basic skills!!) 

Cheers again,

Ray
