I'm loving your work mate, especially the SWTOR figures, up until recently it never occurred to me to use Gi-Joe or as I remember them Action Force figure.  I must raid my parents loft to see how many of my old figures have survived and which ones have had their rubber bands break.  I am wanting to do a Kira and have been wondering what to use as a body.  I might have an old 80's Scarlett if not do you have any ideas?

Thanks! I've got a Nadia coming up soon :)
GI Joe figs work great! Hope you can find the Scarlett figure in your bin, if you can't, you should be able to get one off ebay for not too much. The 25th Anniversary Scarlett is a great base figure for female characters in general :D

Really, really excellent! Those acolytes look really good and fight into the KOTOR universe so very well. Keep up the fantastic work!

Thank you! :)

Re: 04/30/2016: CloneTroopr's Customs: Nadia Grell <THE OLD REPUBLIC>

Nadia's one of the characters in the Star Wars: The Old Republic video game that introduced us to a new species called Sarkhai. Sarkhai had a tradition of face-painting to scare off predators.

The hair was "hard-sculpted" like my Satele and Kira figures. Robe is soft-goods, and the belt is sheet metal. The saber was made from the plastic missiles that came with the Zeb/Chopper 2-pack, and another missile for the hilt. Enjoy :)

Awesome work as always, really impressed with all the additions you've been making to your Tor collection. Nadia's face paint looks great, and the soft goods are really nice as well. Keep it up man!

Obviously, others have done this head-swap before, but I couldn't get my hands on the 5POA figure that came with this head. A seller on eBay is selling high-quality, unpainted recasts of these heads for a fair price, so I bought one, and painted the eyes, brows, and hair. Enjoy, and May the Fourth Be With You! :)

Wow, such great images. I hope you send some to the two hashtags to maybe get these included into Hasbro's SDCC Booth this summer. Superb and off to share.

Any chance you could give us a link to that eBay Seller or an auction link? Others may want to get some of those same heads. Yours turned out fantastic!

Re: 05/25/2016: CloneTroopr's Customs: Han Solo 3.75" SA <TFA>
« Reply #344 on: May 24, 2016, 11:28:08 PM »
Seen quite a few people make super articulated versions of the 3.75" Han Solo from Episode 7, and I couldn't help but make my own. However, I do have to credit the inspiration to BlackThorne, since it was his rendition that finally pushed me to make my own version. I used a Endor Han Walmart Exclusive Black Series 3.75" figure and an Episode VII Han Solo 3.75" 5 POA figure from the Build-A-Weapon line. Enjoy
:)

Ball-joint at the neck was sanded down to fit the head, and I added a thigh strap to the holster. Painted the boots, arms, hair, and pistol grip.
