UPDATE:
I’ve been working very hard on a Darth Azard and Zayne Carrick recently.
I’m pretty satisfied with them, although I need a better head for Zayne, so if anyone has a spare head laying around that looks more like Zayne, please hit me up and we’ll work something out!
Here’s just a quick couple teasers, I’ll have more pics and the recipes up very soon!

Zayne Carrick - KOTOR


Darth Azard – Legacy Comics


WIP Photos
Zayne
 
Azard


Extra Photos
Zayne




Recipe
Head- Ceremony Luke (hopefully switched out soon with Keyan Farlander thanks to Mungo Baobab’s suggestion!)
Body/ Legs- ROTS Obi (with the bottom skirt turned around)
Arms-  ROC Cobra Ninja
Kneepads, Holster, Poncho, Straps, Gauntlets- Sculted


Azard

Recipe:
Head- Darth Maleval
Body- ROC Some Cobra trooper
Shoulders- ROC Jungle Snake Eyes
Forarms- ROC Storm Shadow
Hands- ROTS Obi
Legs- ROC Jungle Snake Eyes
Skirt, torso, hood, pauldron- Sculpted
I know he’s Quarren, and they only have two fingers and a thumb, but I didn’t have any Quarren hands, and all the comic work is completely inconsistent with 3, 4 and 5 fingers, so oh well!
Also his skirt is held on by magnets. I love Aves, but when making skirts it sets up way too hard and limits mobility. I thought I’d try something I saw Sithfire30 doing with his Savage Opress, which was removable armor using magnets. It works pretty well, but next time I will definitely be using stronger magnets!

Thanks for looking and any and all comments welcome!

That KOTOR figure is totally rad!  He looks like he's smuggling about four or five blasters somewhere under that poncho.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

Really cool figures you have been making, Marisiah Fel is really amazing I like that you are a fellow sculptor. I wanted to ask you a few things first what head did you use for Marisiah Fel? Second what material are you using to sculpt with? Again awesome job on your sculpting!

Great breakdown of the figure recipes in the updated pics! I continue to be madly in love with the smuggler.

He's smuggling my heart.
I have altered the action figure. Pray I don't alter it further.

The Marisiah head was from a ROC Scarlett, I cut off the part that rested in front of the shoulders and sculpted the rest. I'm using Aves Apoxie sculpt. I could have shown that's what sithfire says he used in the Action figure news podcast, but it looks different. It sets up great and hard as a rock, but there's a limited amount of time where it is the perfect consistency. When you first mix it it's too soft to really work with, and it sets up pretty hard too. I don't see how sithfire can get as much detail with it as he does, I think he uses a different one. But I'm content with it for now.

both figures turned out stunning! Hasbro could make a mint were they to produce these.
Darth Azard is on the front page.

yeah,i'm liking the new style of using sculpted pieces to create your customs.it will really set you apart from everyone,and make for not only great customs figures,but great art too.
