We've got Michael's and Hobby Lobby both close-by and a couple of fabric stores, too.  I'm betting I can find it.  What is it usually shelved with?

@Tamer: Thank you again for letting me grace the front page!

@Doc: I find it located in the paints department, but more specific the Golden acrylics section next to the other paint mediums.

Excellent - I'll check out the local Hobby Lobby tonight after work.

Made Laudica from Jabbas palace, she is the one enjoying Oola's death by the rancor along side Ree yees. Made from the new VC Bespin Leia figure and sculpt using Kneadatite.

Finished up my Kithaba, I reworked his legs to get rid of that "squeezed" look and moved some parts around to make him screen accurate. Also added alot of sculpted elements to this figure I have some WIP shots I will post later but I remade his bandana "tails", ammo pounch on his bandolier, belt loops, stripes down the sides of his pants, fixed all areas that I removed/moved, reworked his face a bit too. After all that I repainted the entire figure and bam I have a screen accurate Kithaba. I posted some screens I used for ref and a shot of the original figure to help show some of the mods I did to the figure. Enjoy!

Oh yea! I love your Kithaba improvements! Spot on work, his head looks perfect! Great painting as usual. What crotch piece did you use to widen the legs?

Thank you Spry, I used only the stock Kithaba for parts all mods are done using Green Stuff. For the legs I carefully cut them off at the place where the "clear" the crotch and left the hip area that swivels intact. Then I placed them further apart and dremeled off the extra plastic then sculpted over it. I should have taken more pics as I was building it but hopefully that makes sense.

That Laudica's a nasty piece of work... judging by her enjoyment of Oola getting eaten and all. Your recreation however is one nice piece of work!
The exploits of my life are less canonical than they are legendary.
